Resetting the Terminal

There are three types of system resets: a soft reset, a hard reset, or a factory reset. The soft and hard
resets preserve all data stored in the file system. Contact a Honeywell technical support representative
for more information on how to perform a factory reset.

Soft Reset (Warm Boot)

A soft reset re-boots the device and preserves any objects created in RAM. You would perform a soft
reset when:
