Hard Reset Wii U Gamepad
Victorio Galindo
Hello. I am having issue with resetting my shapes. I did all of hard resetting steps on Nanloeaf website and all 5 lights on the controller keep blinking from left to right (i.e. starting with first light, then second , then third and so on). Every 5 minutes the power light blinks blue few times then stop. But all LED keep flashing and it doesn't want to pair.
I have a layout of 149 shapes (hexagons, triangles and mini triangles). When I setup the system it worked fine and I was able to pair. Then the app asked me to update to 5.0 to 5.0.1. Once I started the update the light disconnect and won't connect again. Hard and soft rest not working. Interestingly, if I remove the controller and attach it to only one panel I can hard reset and pair again. The problem see that it cannot hard reset with all 149 panels connected. I tried to hard reset the controller with one panel then I then connected the controller to all my 149 panels. It didn't work and I don't know why. When I do a hard reset, do I reset the controller or the light panels themselves. How long does hard resetting take for 149 panels connected together? I left it blinking like this overnight for 12 hours and it didn't finish. Any idea how to solve this.
Just FYI, when I power cycle all panels they turn on green and stay green. When I hard rest with all panels connected they flash interchangeably green for a while then stay on solid green. Any help is greatly appreciated as this is very frustrating.
I actually tried two other new controller and they do the same (out of the 149 panels I bought 3 were starter kit). Neither of them worked. All keep blinking and the panels stuck on green. Also as I mentioned when I connect any of the controller to only one panel it resets perfectly.
Can it be issue of large layout? How to fix that. Most importantly I want to know. When I do a hard reset do I reset the panels themselves or the controller? Does the panels connect to the WiFi or the controller?
@"Aliakbar Eski" Can a software update or downgrade solve this. How can I do that if I cannot connect to the internet. I tried hotspot and it get in the mode but when I connect to it I cannot pair (the app can find it). I did also contact support and opened a ticket and no body get back to me.
So based on what you described, and I missed that point about the controller working fine when connected to a single panel, apologies, something can be wrong with the layout as well. I wouldn't still rule out the controller, and still get it replaced.
When you contact support you can link them to this post so they know I have been in touch with you. Apart from this, once you are in the support system, we will be able to look at device logs and see if there is some panel that is misbehaving.
Have you contacted support yet?
They will be able to help much faster. But in any case, when you do a hard reset do you get the confirmatory flash where all the LEDs blink together in unision, before they start scrolling from left to right. That means the controller has been hard reset.
After a while, the controller's LEDs must stop scrolling and if reset the power LED must come on. That means its waiting to be paired and configured. Around the same time, your panels must also start to display an effect. Do they display an effect?
I tried to reset the control panel a dozen times via the unplug + hold down power and (+) button method and it never worked. All the LED would flash in unison, then scroll left to right, but the panels are still stuck on green and would not budge.
The green colour from the panels is actually and indication that the panels are firmware upgrading. They usually would take a few minutes to upgrade. I am not sure how long you waited, but if you interrupt the upgrade, it will unfortunately never complete and you will be stuck in the loop.
Hard hard resetting with power and control connected to individual panel was the only viable method for this particular issue; It didn't work with all the panels connected just like what @HESHAMGEO mentioned. The control panel will scroll through all the LED for around 5 minutes before stopping but the panels are still stuck on green.
The upgrade would not be interrupted on auto shutoff, unless the entire power is lost to the layout. Am I misunderstanding what you said? Is it the latter that's occurring.
the auto shutoff is actually the panels reacting to "touch", which is simply EMI from the wiring in the walls. The latest firmwares work around that.
I bought a ION 2000 that was sold to me as new, the controller port is not getting an IP through the DHCP and the CLI won't take the default password that's in the documentation so I can't check the controller config. Could this be deffective?
Yes, brand new box will not have such sticker on it. To my knowledge the way to reset ION appliance is to unclaim the device from the portal. If it is unclaimed while device is not online it will be reset when the device tries to connect to portal again. The person who sold you the box likely has not unclaimed it. At this point, I would try to factory reset it without portal access. I spent some time to search a way to reset it directly from the box, but unfortunately I could not find it anywhere in the documentation. If you have a chance I would reach support to ask how to proceed next.
ION 2000, designed for the enterprise branch, transforms legacy wide area networks (WANs), enabling you to combine heterogeneous underlying transports into a unified hybrid WAN. It establishes service-level agreements (SLAs) for security, path selection, and application performance.
If there is no guarantee that this device is new, my first guess is that this device got registered and claimed in portal, after that the password of ION appliance got changed to the one defined in portal which you do not have access to.
Controller port is by default set to get an IP address from DHCP. If this device is in factory state this should work, however like you mentioned defect is possible. Are you seeing anything unusual on the front panel: -2000-hardware-reference/ion-2000-overview/ion-2000-le... ?
Hi and thanks for the answer, I did try those credentials mentioned and did not work, I'm coming to the conclusion that it got registered and claimed. It does have a sticker in the front labeled as S0263-RTR-02 that I believe is not factory.
If you are experiencing hardware or power-related issues with your laptop, All-in-One PC, or Gaming handheld, such as battery, keyboard, touchpad, or system startup problems, performing an EC reset (hard reset) and Real-Time Clock (RTC) reset might be one of the methods to resolve the issues. The EC is a chip on the motherboard that controls various hardware components and power management functions of the system. However, executing an EC reset (hard reset) and RTC reset can restore the hardware in your deviceto its default state. In this article, we will guide you on how to perform an EC reset (hard reset) and RTC reset.
i have a dhcp network, the IDRAC for each controller get an ip np problem. i can access the idrac of both controllers. but i dont get any ip for controllers. i tried the unisphere discovery but no luck. tried to connect the laptop directly to the controller still did not pick up anything. i dont know what wouuld be the next step here. i can access the centos 7 prompt. but the default password works. any idea would be appreciated. and is there a way i can do a hardware factory reset?
So after doing a lot of research. It came out that the latest dsm client has bug and crashes everytime I tried to use the discover utility. So I used this version mentioned in this post -Storage-Manager-does-not-work/td-p/8175873 and I was able to successfully discover both controller and finish setting them up. Everything looks good.
Thanks for your reply. i checked everything you mentioned. still no ip's and the dsm app does not discover any of the controller. i am going to pluggin the micro usb to usb type A and access the serial. i will post my findings shortly
So i have connected the serial usb cable and was able to login to the SCOS cli. i have checked the ip and it was not getting any dhcp. so what did is i have assigned an ip address using the controller command and was able to get access to it. did the same thing for the second controller. now when i use the dsm client it tell's me that the storage is not initialized. so when i ran the unisphere discovery utility it is not able to pick up anything. is there a command i can reset the controller fron the SCOS cli?
So I ran the initial config when it finish I hit on configure this host for dsm access. Then the GUI just disappeared. When I try to login again I get the message above that I need to run the initial config
PS4 randomly loses Wifi connection and disconnects controller and no way to reconnect them again or having my PS4 controller to detect the console again, UNLESS I do a HARD RESET to the console (keeping the power button touched with finger for several seconds - doing a turn off / turn on cycle manually)
Some others suggest it is related to the antenna. But my console has never fallen, and if it was the antenna, I guess turn it off several wireless devices around, and approaching the Wireless controller to the console should allow the controller to detect the console. But it does not.
