This Howto describes how to do a factory reset on a berofix device. This could be useful in case of a lost password or in any case where you lost the connection to the berofix device. This Feature works only with Firmware Version > 1.12 and FPGA image Version >= 3. The Hardware Factory Reset deletes all data on the berofix device incl. the firmware and restores the default values. There are 8 steps howto initiate the Hardware Factory Reset.
1. Power off the card/device.
2. In case of a card remove the card from your computer. In case of a Box check if you can access the PCM connector on the rear from the outside, otherwise open the box.
4. In case of a Box Power up the device or in case of a card plug the card in your computer and power up the device.
5. After you power up the device the berofix should be reachable again with the default IP address 10.0.0.2. or a new IP-address. Open your Browser with the address and wait until you get a response from the berofix (this could take a couple of minutes. see picture below).
6. Press the Firmware-Update button (see picture above).
7. Install the new Firmware (see picture below).
8. Power Down the device and remove the Jumper.
