Resetting the Prestige
If you forget your password or for some reason cannot access the SMT menu, you will need to reload the
configuration file. Uploading the configuration file replaces the current configuration file with the new
configuration file. This means that you will lose all configurations that you had previously and the speed of the
console port will be reset to the default of 9600bps with 8 data bit, no parity, one stop bit and flow control none.
The password will be reset to 1234, also.
To obtain the default configuration file, download it from the FTP site, unzip it and save it in a folder. Turn the
Prestige off and then on to begin a session. When you turn on the Prestige again you will see the initial screen.
When you see the message "Press any key to enter Debug Mode within 3 seconds" press any key to enter debug
mode.
