How do I restart the Secvest alarm panel?

Restart using the arrow keys or Advanced User Menu
# Secvest Touch wireless alarm system (FUAA50500)

Reading time: approx. 5 minutes (for all variants)

You can restart the system either using the arrow keys on the Secvest local user interface or as an administrator in the Advanced User Menu.

A restart brings the alarm center into a defined initial state, similar to restarting a PC. This helps, for example, if a message from the alarm center is "stuck".

All settings and configurations (e.g. learned detectors) are retained after a restart.

If the alarm center does not use the SNTP time sync function (automatic retrieval of the date and time via the Internet), you must reset the date and time.

Restarting the alarm control panel should not be confused with resetting it to factory settings.

When resetting to factory settings, the alarm control panel removes all programmed detectors, users, etc.

Requirements

To restart the alarm center, the following requirements must be met:

• All important communications, transmissions and actions have ceased.
• The Secvest is deactivated in all areas.

• The buttons “Internal Activate”, “Activate” and “Deactivate” flash 10 times.

During the restart, Secvest creates an SSL certificate. This may take a few minutes.

When you restart, Secvest automatically logs you out of the advanced user menu. To continue, log in again as usual using your code.
