SBC4 factory default reset

Post by speed »

Is there a way to reset the SBC4 to all factory defaults like there is for the SBC2 and SBC3? I don't see anything in the manual, I don't see a reset button on the device. The webpage reset doesn't really do anything. I need a clean installation on mine.

In order to fully reset your SBC4, you'll need to reflash the micro SD card. You can follow the instructions at:

After which, you will need to expand the file system to fill the card. The instructions to do that can be found here:

Do factory resets usually help out with issues?

A factory reset might rule out that the problem you're having may be coming from various modifications you've made to your OS or other programs you've installed. After a factory reset, you should be able to download and run our example programs with no issues.
