Initialization

To restore the LinkStation to its factory default settings, follow the procedure below.

Move the power switch to ‘ON’ while holding down the function button. The function button will

ash blue for 1 minute.

While the function button is ashing, press it again. The status LED will ash blue, then amber.

Initialization will take 2 – 3 minutes.

When the ashing status LED turns solid blue, initialization is complete.

Note: – When the LinkStation is initialized with this process, only the IP address, Ethernet frame

size settings, and admin password are reset to factory defaults. You have the option to

not initialize the admin password if desired. Other settings can be initialized from the

Web Admin Tool.

– To keep the current admin password, select the [Keep current admin password] option.

– If [Keep current admin password] is selected, you will not be able to reset the admin

password if you forget it. Write the password down and keep it in a safe place!

– Before rerunning the LinkStation’s original installation program, initialize the LinkStation

(including the admin password) from the Web Admin Tool.
