Reset Device

If you want to erase all the users information and access records stored in the iGuard internal memory, and to reset all the settings to the factory defaults, you can perform the System Reset function to clear all the stored data. There are two databases inside the iGuard: User Database & Access Database. The User Database stores the user information, including the fingerprint data & the access rights. It also stores the department information. The Access Database only stores the Access records. It does not contain any user information.

You can selectively delete any one or both databases. It is done by selecting “Function 7" in the setup menu, as shown in the following:

Finally, you will then be asked if you want to reset the settings to the factory default. Enter 1 if you want to reset the device to its factory default (such as resetting the IP address to the default 192.168.0.200).

Factory Default Yes/No (1/2)? _

The system will perform a system reset, and then it will return to the standby mode (it usually takes around 20 seconds).

In the unlikely event that your iGuard does not function properly for some unknown reasons, you may also want to use this System Shutdown/Reset function to reset all the existing records in the machine.
