There are a couple of ways to restart the mbNET-device:

You can use a paper clip and press the Resetbutton on the mbNET.
The device will now restart.
The restart is complete once the "Rdy" and "Pwr" LEDs both light up.
2. Load factory settings for a mbNET-device.
In case that the mbNET-device gets unresponsive or a corrupt configuration has been uploaded, you can reset the mbNET-device back to its factory default configuration. It is also good practice to start with the factory default configuration when uploading a new mbNET-device configuration file.
Notice
Before you configure the device to its factory settings, you should note the following:
- Save your configuration first. After restoring the factory settings, all of your settings/changes will bedeleted.
- The IP address of the device is reset to the original IP address (192.168.0.100). You may also need to modify the network settings of the configuration PC accordingly.
- The device password is reset to its individual default password. The default password can be foundon the back of the unit.
- No USB stick/storage medium should be connected to the device.
