Resetting the Security Mode
The results of resetting security depends on the Security mode you have configured
for the module.
If the module was configured for FactoryTalk Security, clicking [Security Reset] will
result in the following:

Data Collection stops immediately.

The module is shut down and restarted using Native security.

The administrative piadmin user and users that were created in Native security
mode are retained.

The piadmin user password is set to blank.
If the module was configured for Native security, clicking [Security Reset] will reset
the piadmin user password to blank and prompt the user to log into the FactoryTalk
Historian ME web interface.
Resetting Native security does not require rebooting the module.
