How to factory reset DS-2DE2202-DE3/W?

[dannieboiz]

I got a bunch of new cameras and was able to factory reset all of them and got them to work. But I can't find the reset button on the DS-2DE2202-DE3/W. I opened it all up but the only button there is the WPS button. No reference of it anywhere in the manual.

Argh, nevermind, I think the WPS button IS the reset button...

Only difference is with this camera, it becomes inactive after factory resetting and requires SADP to change password for it to be active again. :mad-new:

Hi,
did you managed to factory reset it ? I believe I have managed to brick mine, TFTP not helping at all.. I can see the camera in SADP but TFTP does nothing after that.. wondering if there is another way to do factory reset.
cheers.

If so - it needs to be pressed before power on, and kept pressed for at least 20 seconds after power on.
