Caution When you use the Reset button to restore the router to the factory default software configuration, the current
software configuration is permanently deleted from the router.
The Reset button is used to reset the software configuration to factory default. It is not used to power the
router on and off; the router powers on immediately when it is connected to an AC power source.
The Reset button must be pressed and held for at least 5 seconds to return the router to factory default. If the
router is equipped with BBU, you must either disable BBU charge-discharge or enable BBU transportation
mode prior to removing AC power in order to fully power down the router, then you can press and hold the
Factory Reset button, and power it up with AC power.

Accessing the Button

You must provide a non-metallic pin or other thin metal tool no larger than 3/16 inches in diameter to access
and press the reset button.

Checking the System (SYS) LED

To verify that the router has been successfully installed, check the System (SYS) LED on the router base. As
the router starts up, the SYS LED will show these states:
