Command 'Reset Origin Device'dl-permalink__symbolPermalink

Function: The command opens a dialog to reset the device to its factory settings. All applications, boot applications, and remanent variables will be deleted from the device. Depending on the version of the device, a selection of the elements to be deleted can be made in this dialog. When these elements are unselected in the dialog, they are not deleted during the reset and remain on the controller. By default, all elements are selected and everything is deleted. Elements that are not available for selection are generally also deleted.

Call: Right-click a programmable device in the device tree.

If a safety controller is inserted below a controller, then this command can interrupt the communication connections permanently.

Connections of the safety controller to other safety controllers (via safety network variables), to field devices, and to the development system are affected. The safe field devices or other safety controller can enter the safe state as a reaction. The connection to the development system is affected only when a safety controller that is connected to the main controller via a fieldbus.

For more information, see the "Subordinate Safety Controllers" chapter.
