Apc Switched Rack Pdu Factory Reset

I could not recall the login details for any of my three pdus.
Apc switched rack pdu factory reset. You are not able to reset the unit to the factory settings on this model without gaining access via the serial console cable which is outlined in those instructions above. Press reset button with paper clip only 2 sec is necessary. If not let me know. Can you get the cable.
Remote outlet level controls allow power on off functionality for power recycling to remotely reboot equipment and restrict unauthorized use of individual outlets. Apc switched rack power distribution units pdus enable advanced user customizable power control and active monitoring. I have three apc pdu ap7900 and i m about to dispose of one of them. I just had to reset an apc pdu and go thru this hassle.
Network port led s will start flashing. Fortunately i still had the serial cable required to get into the console. The pdu defaults to dhcp bootp so 192 168 1 202 is from the previous user. Resetting the network interface using the small reset button near the network jack has no effect on the electrical output of the rack pdu or rack ats.
Then you can recover it by connecting to the pdu via the ser. If you forget the password to your apc rack pdu generation 2 starts with part number ap8xxx. The process that worked for me 3 times straight. Immediately press reset again only 1 2 seconds needed.
I like to wipe the configuration from equipment prior to disposal.
