4. After 30 seconds, release the Reset button. At this point, on some models, the Status LED will
blink a 1-5-1 pattern. Wait for the device to boot up. At this time, the configuration is returned
to factory defaults. Now, if desired, power off the device, though this is not necessary.
Note Powering off the device before releasing the Reset button guarantees the configuration
will NOT be reverted. Powering off the device just after releasing the Reset button will result in
an unknown configuration, possibly causing some or all settings to revert to defaults.
System information
The System Information page displays general system information about the Digi Connect and
ConnectPort TS Family device. Technical support uses this information to troubleshoot problems. To

General
The General page displays the following general system information:
n Model: The model of the Digi Connect and ConnectPort TS Family product.
n MAC Address: A unique network identifier required for all network devices. The MAC address
appears on a sticker on the Digi device and consists of 12 hexadecimal digits, usually starting
with 00:40:9D.
n Firmware Version: The current firmware version running in the Digi device. Use this
information to locate and download new firmware. You can download firmware updates from
the Digi Support site.
n Boot Version: The current boot code version running in the Digi device.
n POST Version: The current Power-On Self Test (POST) code version running in the Digi device.
n CPU Utilization: The amount of CPU resources the Digi device uses.
Important: 100% CPU utilization may indicate encryption key generation is in-progress. On
initial boot, the Digi device generates some encryption key material: an RSA key for SSL/TLS
operations, and a DSA key for SSH operations. This key-generation process can take as long as
40 minutes. Until the RSA or DSA key is generated, the Digi device will be unable to initiate or
accept that type of encrypted connection. The Digi device reports itself as 100% busy, but since
key generation occurs at a low priority, the device will still function normally. On subsequent
reboots, the Digi device will use its existing keys and not need to generate another unless a
reset to factory defaults is done, which will cause a new key to be generated on the next
reboot.
n Up Time: The amount of time the Digi device has been running since it was last powered on or
rebooted.
n Total/Used/Free Memory: The amount of memory (RAM) available, currently in use, and
currently not being used.
