Hello all,
Recently bought some 2nd hand AP-8653 PDU's and one of them was not factory reset to defaults, so I am unable to configure it.
I have tried the rest button (waited 10 seconds, etc) but that just seems to restart the management interface.
How can I factory reset the device?
Thank you.

Thanks for your reply. That reset did not work, but this one did (towards the middle of the video) : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JwBUgQwPRuk
