Reset Butto
Help! I have a ebrewsupply panel and can't really see around the 462. Where is the reset button? Does anyone have a picture?

found it after I broke my wife's compact...tiny mirror
Re: Reset Butto
When I put my BCS on a DIN Rail in my panel, I placed it so I could depress the RESET button. I wish they would move the RESET button to the outside case as I think there is little chance of depressing it by accident for more than 10 seconds.

Re: Reset Butto
@oakbarn - did you use the oscsys adapter, make your own, or some other? Would you mind sharing a pic of how you've got it mounted for those of us still in the planning and hopefully soon building phases?
Re: Reset Butto
And yes, there are two BCSs. The second one I have updated to 4.0. That will eventually be my Fermenter Control one. It will be somewhere else shortly. I just quickly hooked it in for some testing and to see 4.0.

Re: Reset Butto
Thanks for the description. Unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be a larger image associated with the thumbnail, and it's pretty hard to see how it's mounted that small. From what I've been reading on here, I like the idea of throwing a switch on the BCS to power it up after the network device so that it doesn't select the 169.x.x.x default address (don't remember the rest offhand.)
Re: Reset Butto
I will try to post a better pix.

Gotta vent. The reset button is super frustrating on my 460. No matter what 'non metallic' tool I use, I can't get to it. I have to unscrew the back cover, pull out the board, and then it's exposed. The hole drilled into the case just doesn't line up. If you're having trouble finding the satisfying "click" of the reset button - this might be your problem as well.

I have to unhook a few other pieces of my panel to get at mine but what I have found to work for me is to snap off the end of a toothpick. I then grab the small section with a needle nose pliers and use it that way. Angle it slightly and you should be able to find the sweet spot.
I will agree it would be nice to have it in an easier location.

Re: Reset Butto
My 462 arrived today and I eagerly plugged it in and upgraded the firmware. I made a change to the network settings (static IP) and somehow I lost connectivity. So I looked up the hard reset procedure and couldn't for the life of me manage to push the reset button, so I took off the end plates and realized that I was only pressing the side of the Cat5 connector housing -- the reset button access hole was drilled on the wrong side of the case! I had to drill a new hole (two, actually, since I missed the right location the first time) to enable access to the reset button.
I'll just consider it additional ventilation at this point, but I hope it's not indicative of sloppiness with the rest of the unit.
