Initializing with the USB Drive
To initialize the settings on your TeraStation with the USB drive as created above, follow the procedure below.
Note: If using the initialization drive to initialize, the unit's current firmware version will be changed to the version
used to create the initialization drive.
1
Turn off the TeraStation by pressing and holding the power button for 3 seconds.
2
Insert the USB drive into a USB port on the TeraStation. Make sure that no other USB drives are currently
connected to any USB ports on the TeraStation.
3
Power on the TeraStation while holding down the function button.
4
When the I41 message appears on the LCD panel, press the function button.
5
It will take several minutes for initializing the settings. The TeraStation will restart when it's finished.
Dismount the USB drive before unplugging it. See the "Dismounting Drives" section in chapter 4 for the procedure
on dismounting drives.

Resetting the Administrator Password

If you forget the admin username or password and cannot log in to Settings, or wrong network settings are
configured and Settings is inaccessible, initialize these settings by holding down the init button (refer to the
TeraStation diagram in chapter 1) on the front panel for three seconds. Normally this will reset the admin username
and password, network configuration, SSL, and security port settings to their factory default values.
This button can be disabled in Settings; to do so, navigate to Management > Restore/Erase > Edit under "Init Button
Settings", then select "Keep current admin username and password" and click OK.
