To reset the device, you need the device activation code, which is 16 characters long. The original delivery included 2 stickers that contain the device activation code.

Resetting the device (hard reset) restores factory settings. Reset the device if you have lost or forgotten the admin password or the configuration must be reset back to the original.

CAUTION Using the device activation code restores factory settings in the device and clears all user and measurement data from the device.
