RETAINING DEVICE SETTINGS FROM UNKNOWN DOMAINS

There are times when you don't know the password of a Security Domain, but you'd like to retain all its configuration. Without
logging in to a Domain, all devices that appear with amber padlocks are read-only. If you save a show file, the configuration
of all devices is saved. You can then factory default the devices using the prescribed method; see the Reference section
under the Downloads page the Pathway website for a comprehensive document titled
Devices, describing how to manually factory default all our devices. See the QR code below for a direct link to the document.
Once they reappear in Pathscape with a red padlock, add the devices to a Security Domain, then open the show file and
Send All Transactions to restore the network configuration and patch.

USING OLDER VERSIONS OF PATHSCAPE WITH NEW DEVICES

If you use Pathscape 1 or Pathscape 2 with devices shipped after January 1, 2020 (Version 5 firmware), you will not be
able to configure them; you must use Pathscape 3. As a reminder, the device label will appear in the earlier versions of
Pathscape as "Use latest Pathscape PC software to secure". Other properties will be shown and are correct, but any
attempts to change them will fail.
