Recovery
The Recovery tab restarts the clock or returns parts of it to the factory state. Every action asks for confirmation first.
| Action | What it does | What stays |
|---|---|---|
| Reset Device | Restarts the clock | Everything |
| Clear WiFi Credentials | Erases the saved Wi-Fi network and opens the setup network NixieClock (Connecting the clock to Wi-Fi). The website disconnects. | All settings, Expert mode |
| Restore Default Configuration | Returns all settings to factory defaults, including the language (English) and the time zone (UTC). The next time the clock is powered on, it starts in time setting. | Wi-Fi network, Expert mode, the time until the next power-on |
Server Configuration → Firmware server URL is the address the clock loads firmware updates from. Leave it unchanged unless our support asks you to change it. An empty field restores the default address.
Tip
To reset the clock without the website, use the factory reset with the buttons. Only the button hard reset erases everything, for example before you give the clock to someone else.
