A.2 System recovery

Video Server provides an auxiliary button located on the left of the front panel for system recovery by hardware. The buttons can be used to perform either level of system recovery. “Reset” will force the system restart at any point; “Restore” will restore the default settings from factory and then force the system restart to work at the initial state. Consequently “restore” is generally used to completely recover the system from serious fault in configuration.

RESET

Click on the “RESET” button once. The system will perform the system diagnosis and the software installation may be necessary if the IP address is not fixed. This procedure is as same as removing the power and attaching it again.

RESTORE

When the system seems to respond or operate slowly after changing some settings and administrators hardly enter the configuration to change back the original settings, administrators can perform the “restore” procedure. It is as same as the “factory default” link on the configuration page. To restore the factory default settings, press the “RESET” button firmly. The system diagnosis will start right away and the “status” LEDs will be turn on after system diagnosis. After the “status” LEDs are off, Administrators can release the “RESET” button now and perform the installation for the initialized system.

To reduce the system failure caused by operation error, always read the related

sections in this user’s manual to prevent from unexpected error caused by wild-guess configuration.
