Factory Reset Settings
Reset the monitor’s pages & settings to the factory's default settings.
Execute Factory Reset
Select this option to reset the monitor to its factory default settings.
A default factory reset will reset all settings in the menus and pages data. It will keep the firmware, calibration, file and registration information. You can reset these also if you select the appropriate box.
Factory Reset is useful when swapping between different users or when encountering issues that may be a result of fiddling around with unfamiliar settings of if there has been a lot of issues. Reloading the firmware, or updating to the lasted stable version are also ways to troubleshoot issues. ;-)
