ming a new E2 for the first time. The section includes log-
ging on, specifying information about I/O boards and

Logging into and out of the E2 controller can be done
at any time by pressing the
key on the E2 keypad. If
you are currently logged out, pressing will bring up
the User Login dialog box. If you are already logged in,
pressing

you to the E2 home screen.
10.2 Cleaning Out the Con-
troller
Cleaning out the E2 controller needs to be done if:
•If you are programming your E2 controller for
the first time.
•If all of the settings need to be cleared.
•If the program settings are unknown.
Open the E2 controller panel. There are two buttons
located midway down on the main board (see Figure 2-2).
These buttons are used to perform various hardware func-
tions.
Reset Button - The button
labeled "RESET" on the main
board resets the controller.
Pressing and holding this button
for one second will cause the E2
to reset and retain all pro-
grammed applications, logs, and
other data stored in memory.
Clean Out Button - The button labeled CLEAN OUT
on the controller is used to perform a function called clean
out. Using this button in conjunction with the Reset But-
ton will cause a clean out, which is a reset that erases all
data from memory. The E2 will re-boot after a clean out
with all programmed applications, logs, and other data
erased.
Clean outs are also commonly called Blue “R” resets,
named for the key presses required to clean out Retail
Solutions’ previous generation of controllers, REFLECS.
Performing a Clean Out
1. Press and RELEASE the
Reset Button quickly. The
screen will clear.
2. Press and Hold the Clean Out
button.
3.When “CLEANOUT” appears
in large text across the screen,
RELEASE the Clean Out but-
ton.

grammed parameters from memory. Do not
follow these instructions unless you are abso-
lutely sure you wish to remove all applications and logs
from memory.
