Resets the device. This is an orderly reset that saves the archive and restarts the operating system. A reset is often required after making changes to operating system parameters and the following attributes:
-
APDU Retries
-
APDU Segment Timeout
-
APDU Timeout
-
BACnet IP Port
-
Computer Name
-
Domain Name
-
Max APDU Length
-
Network Address
-
Port Number
-
Time Sync Period
Note: When you update the time servers, you do not need to reset the Router; however, if you change any direct connect, internal modem, or external modem attributes, reset the Router.
When the Router requires a reset, Reset Needed appears in the title bar of the object in the display panel. The Reset Needed status is triggered by Reset Needed (19) and Cold Reset Needed (20) in the JCI System Status (Set 25).
Important: Do not push the RE-BOOT SYSTEM switch on the Router to initiate a reset to address a Reset Needed status. Pushing the RE-BOOT SYSTEM switch initiates CPU reset and reboot, which causes all unsaved data to be lost (including recent attribute value changes).
