Resetting an X-rite DTP41

1) Method I : without software
There are two ways to do the resetting with this method.

POWER UP RESET
This procedure resets the instrument to it's power-up defaults as last set by either the factory, or a third party package of software.

Plug in the instrument.
Press and hold the black measure button until the LED glows RED.
Release the button.
Press the button again (This must be done within ten seconds of step 3, or the instrument will return to the ready to measure mode, without resetting).

FULL FACTORY RESET
This will reset the instrument to the default settings for both measurement modes and communications.

Unplug the instrument from power.
Press and hold the black measure button.
While holding the button, plug the instrument back in. The light will turn RED.
Release the button. The light will turn green. The instrument is now returned to factory default settings.

2) Method II: with ToolCrib
Alternatively, the ToolCrib software allows the flexibility to perform a reset to its power up default state or return the device to its Factory Default status. Once the instrument is connected to the software simply click the desired reset options.
