Based on https://www.franka-community.de/t/reset-admin-password-or-reset-to-factory-settings/184, there are two ways recommended by Franka Emika:

First way

• 1. Navigate to the login page of Desk.
• 2. Open the debug window.
• 3. Switch to the console tab.
• 4. Enter <fetch(“/admin/api/factory-reset”,{method: ‘POST’})>, without the <>.
• 5. Pressing enter does a factory reset. Just wait for the reboot (robot will start blinking in yellow).

Second way

Manually boot the controller into the Rescue System, by performing the following steps:

• Shut down the controller and switch off the main switch as soon as the fans are switched off.
• Wait approx. 10 sec. Before restarting the control by switching on the main switch.
• Wait at least 20 sec and less than 40 sec.
• Switch off the control unit with the main switch.
• Wait 10 sec.
• Start the control again by switching on the main switch.
