3.1 Resetting the AP-7131 Password
The AP-7131 Command Line Interface (CLI) enables users who forget their password to reset it to the
factory default (motorola). From there, a new password can be defined. To reset the AP-7131
password back to its default setting:
1. Connect one end of a null modem serial cable to the AP-7131’s serial connector. Attach the
other end of the null modem serial cable to the serial port of a PC running HyperTerminal or
a similar emulation program.
2. Set the HyperTerminal program to use 19200 baud, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no parity, no flow
control and auto-detect for terminal emulation.
3. Press <ESC> or <Enter> to access the AP-7131 CLI. A serial connection has now been
established and the user should be able to view the serial connection window.
4. Reset the AP-7131. An AP-7131 can be reset by removing and re-inserting the LAN
(GE1/POE) cable or removing and re-inserting the power cable.
NOTE Though the AP-7131 can have its basic settings defined using a number of
different screens, Motorola recommends using the AP-7131 Quick
Setup screen to define a minimum required configuration from one
location.
