Performing a Factory Reset on the PAX Terminal

A factory reset restores the terminal to the state that it was in when shipped to you. This procedure applies to test, debug, and live devices. Performing a factory reset does not affect the device key that was preloaded on the terminal before it was shipped to you.

IMPORTANT

If you are considering performing a factory reset to resolve an issue, the recommendation is to explore other troubleshooting options first. A reset will erase all configurations, installed applications, and locally stored data, which might not be necessary for resolving common issues.

Use these default passwords to access the menus where you perform a factory reset on a PAX terminal:

Settings password: pax9876@@
(If you created a custom password, use it instead.)
Developer option password: Dev9876@@
(Use with test devices only.)
