Reset to factory defaults
If you need to reset your DE-MG/Metaforsa device to factory defaults, you can do this using the web panel of Smart Home administration (LT Setup) or using the button on the DE-MG or Metaforsa module.
==WARNING!== For a successful reset, your module must have the latest firmware version.
==Updating Firmware of DE-MG or Metaforsa Module==
1. In the menu on the left, select “Modules” (the “General” category).

4. For successful reset, your network must have a DHCP server and Internet access. After resetting, the server will request a dynamic IP address via DHCP. The reset time depends on the speed of your Internet connection and can take from 15 to 40 minutes. If you want to continue, click “OK” in the following window.

==Instructions for Connecting to LT Setup==
The LT Setup web panel will be available at http://de-mg.local (or http://metaforsa.local). In some systems, pseudo-domains of the upper level are not supported, and this is why it will not be possible to access the panel at the specified address. In this case, you need to determine the IP address of the server.
You can determine the IP address of the server through the Larnitech application on your smartphone or tablet or using the panel of your router:
==How to Determine the IP-Address using the Larnitech Application==
You can determine the IP address of the server using the Larnitech application on your smartphone or tablet. Connect to the network to which the server is connected, open the application, click the button in the upper right corner and select “Settings”. Select “Local” in the “Connection” menu. You will see the “Current server” line. The IP address of your server will be shown under this line.
<br>[[file:reset12.png|300px]]<br>
==How to Determine the IP Address Using the Router's Control Panel==
You can also determine the IP address using the router’s control panel. To do this, open the list of connected devices and select the required module (“DE-MG” or “Metaforsa”). Its IP address will be displayed in the window that appears. In the screenshot below, we have performed this action using the Linksys router.
<br>[[file:reset13.png|300px]]<br>
==Reset with a Button on the Case==
1. Power off the module by pulling out the corresponding power connector (under the “+24V” inscription on DE-MG modules).
2а. Press and hold the “Recovery” button on DE-MG modules. Its location is shown as 3 in the diagram below. The button is located inside the case; you need to press it with a thin object through the hole.
<br>[[file:reset14.png|300px]]<br>
2b. In Metaforsa modules, the button is located under the case cover. Its location is shown in the photo below; you need to press it with a thin object through the hole.
<br>[[file:reset15.png|500px]]<br>
3. While holding the “Recovery” button down, plug in the power connector.
On DE-MG modules, the indicator (designated as 4 in the diagram above) should light up in blue, and then start flashing red. When the LED stops flashing and turns red, release the button. The reset process has started. It can take from 15 to 40 minutes, and during this time period the color of the indicator may change. When the reset process is completed, the indicator will turn green.
