X'ed out objects on screen.

Recently our Windows XP computer crashed due to a black out. Since then one of our control screens (Lookout 5.0) has x'ed out objects and we can't control. I have gone through the field point (FP-1601) explorer and verified that I can ping it and view it in the explorer. Any thoughts are greatly appreciated. If the FP-1601 suffered the blackout as well is it possible it needs to FP rack/rail needs to be reset. And how do you properly reset a FP-1601 rack?

You can perform a reset on a FP-1601 by cycling power to the module. This forces the module to reboot and clear the RAM. To reset all of the saved configurations, flip the reset switch (DIP switch 😎 to the On position and then power the module. Once the Status LED starts flashing, remove power to the module, disable the reset switch, and power the module back on. At this point you will need to reconfigure the ethernet settings of the FP-1601.
