Getting comfortable
Nope. It also resets/aligns the underlying data structure. Me and other users found out that when upgrading to another vendor's fw, some functions of Batch Config didn't work or produced strange errors, this was what convinced me since I first tried other fw to stay on ezviz fw for my DB1. The only way I found to solve those problems when switching to another vendor's fw was using that option, I think it restores/aligns the data structure based on the fw you're using in that moment. Probably the options that don't get reset are the ones that are saved in an area that is common for the 2 firmwares.
In my case, while I was trying to go to the latest hikvision fw, and I had those issues, I found out that using the Restore Default Values option solved those problems. That's why I recommend it.
I double-checked now, and I noticed that there's another way to restoring all default parameters or all except IP address. At least according to Batch Config. manual. We could try to use this function, but I haven't tested it, if someone is doing upgrades and tests it for us (@ciphershort maybe?), they can confirm if this actually resets ALL parameters to default. Then we can include it in the procedure.
