Resetting the Terminal

There are three types of system resets: a soft reset, a hard reset, or a factory reset. The soft and hard resets preserve all data stored in the file system. Contact a Honeywell technical support representative for more information on how to perform a factory reset.

Soft Reset (Warm Boot)

A soft reset re-boots the device and preserves any objects created in RAM. You would perform a soft reset when:

•the terminal fails to respond.

•after installing some software applications.

•after making changes to certain system settings, such as network cards.
