Cannot log in to CMM

The 'reset' button on the CMM is intended for rebooting, and does not reset to factory defaults.  To change a forgotten IP address, reset to factory defaults, or reload corrupted firmware:

First, connect a straight-through serial cable to the CMM serial port, and set your terminal program (like Hyperterminal) to:

  • Baud rate: 115200
  • Data Bits: 8
  • Parity: None
  • Stop Bits: 1
  • Flow Control:None

Next, remove and reinsert the CMM, and press 'Enter' during boot to bring up the EBF> prompt

At the prompt, type the following:

CMM EBF> set manufacture on

Once this is enabled, you have several options.  To disable DHCP and reset the IP address to default, type:

CMM EBF> set net ext dhcp off
CMM EBF> set net ext ip 192.168.150.150
CMM EBF> set net ext netmask 255.255.255.0
CMM EBF> set net ext gateway 192.168.150.1

To remove the entire configuration, including storage pool configurations, usernames, and passwords, type:

CMM EBF> set default settings

If you see an error during the EBF boot similar to:

SD Card not present or failed to initialize
Unable to obtain flash device parameters

then type:

CMM EBF> sd format

and follow the Emergency Firmware Recovery, starting at step 5.

Ensure that you type:

CMM EBF> exit

once the steps are completed, to reboot back into normal operation mode
