This button in the Bacnet Ws Device Manager allows you to restart a device. In the popup dialog (Figure B.7), you may choose either “Cold Start” or “Warm Start.”
The specific meaning of terms Cold Start and Warm Start is left up to the device’s manufacturer to define, so make sure you
understand exactly what each procedure entails for the device in question.
As shown above, this dialog has two fields:
-
Reinitialize Command
Select either Warm Start (default) or Cold Start (see Note above).
-
Password
Enter the password required by the device to invoke this command. Some devices may not require a password, so if you do not enter anything, no password is sent to the device.
When you click , the reinitialize request is sent to the device. The result is displayed in a dialog box, as either a success or failure.
