Operating instructions

Operating Modes
The IP Reset operates in one of two modes, Intelligent Reset Mode and Timed Reset Mode. IP Reset automatically detects the operating mode
by monitoring the I/O Detect input. If IP Reset detects a change in the I/O Detect input, it will enter the Intelligent Reset mode. Otherwise,
IP Reset will remain in Timed Reset mode. You can choose to use Timed Mode by twisting the I/O Detect wires together and securing them with
the wire nut.
Intelligent Reset Mode
The Intelligent Reset Mode monitors a relay output on the device being protected. The relay output on the IP device is commanded to toggle at a
pre-determined interval using IP Reset Manager Software or other network software designed to support IP Reset. When IP Reset detects the loss
of the relay toggle, after a pre-determined detection period, it power restarts the protected device. Generally, a power reset will restore the device to
proper operation. After 2 failed attempts to restore the device’s operation, IP Reset will re-start the protected device once every four hours
(fault detection mode).
Timed Reset Mode
The Timed Reset Mode, simply cycles power on the protected device every 12 or 24 hours depending upon the model ordered. The IP Reset resets the
protected device every 12 hours. The IP Reset resets the protected device every 24 hours. When used in Timed Reset mode, IP Reset connects directly
inline with the device’s power, does not use the I/O Detect Cable and does not require any remote commanding software.
NOTE:
If Timed Reset Mode is used on a PTZ camera, the camera will typically reset to its home position upon reset. For this reason, we recommend using
Intelligent Reset Mode whenever possible for PTZ cameras.
