      How-to Factory Reset NAO<\/h4>

      What is a Factory Reset
      A Factory Reset operation resets the robot to its factory settings:<\/p>

      • It removes the User data and the system partition that are on the robot.<\/li>
      • It reinstalls a NAOqi OS on the Robot.<\/li><\/ul>

        The Factory Reset operation cannot be done remotely. Depending of the tool used (see below), the Factory Reset may also include a Cloud Reset that will remove from the ADE all Preferences, Groups, Profiles, Channels, Robot type, Robot Owner, Robot Viewer, Robot Admin and applications linked to the Robot.
        After a Factory Reset\u00a0without Cloud Reset, when doing the Getting Started Wizard, all the Cloud data (Preferences, Groups, Profiles\u2026) and all the applications linked to the Robot or to its Profiles are automatically reinstalled on the Robot.
        Consequently, if there was an issue with applications or Cloud configuration, the issue reoccurs.\u00a0
        Available tools to perform a Factory Reset<\/p>

        • via Robot Settings<\/li>
        • via Choregraphevia SSH<\/li>
        • via USB KEY<\/li>
        • Robot Factory reset<\/li>
        • Cloud Reset<\/li><\/ul>

          The recommended tool is Robot Settings menu because it is the only tool to\u00a0perform a full Factory Reset including the Cloud Reset.
          By using another tool, the Cloud Reset can be done separately via the ADE frontend by a Customer\u00a0Care member with \u201cFleet Manager\u201d rights.

                  Determine the Battery version of NAO<\/h4>

                  The NAO battery is declined in several versions.
                  To determine the version, refer to the serial number indicated on the battery.
                  Where is located the battery serial number ?
                  First, you need to access the battery to remove it from the robot.
                  When the battery is removed, look at the lower section of the sticker and read the serial number :
                  How to read the serial number ?
                  The battery serial number can be read as followed :
                  Battery referenceVersionBatch numberUnitALDE000398X00000000
                  For the battery in the picture, the serial number is\u00a0ALDE000398\u00a0B 03\u00a0029926.
                  Meaning that its version is\u00a0B03.<\/p>

                  \u00a0<\/p>

                  Remove the battery<\/h4>

                    NAO \u2013 Removing the head<\/h4>

                    Why removing the head ?
                    You will need to remove it of your robot if:<\/p>

                    • your robot doesn\u2019t turn on,<\/li>
                    • you want to change the head,<\/li>
                    • or the support asked you to do so\u00a0(for example : to confirm the head serial number).<\/li><\/ul>


                      How to remove the head ?
                      To do so, follow the next steps :
                      Make sure your robot is: turned OFF, unplugged and wait 60 seconds to be sure all electronic capacitors are depleted.<\/p>

                      Find the head lock buttons.\u2028<\/p>

                      Note: run your fingers under the head.You\u2019ll feel square lock buttons on the left and right of the neck.<\/p>

                      Firmly grip the head on either side of the robot\u2019s face, and push up on the two lock buttons, making sure they are fully pressed in.Now lift off the head.<\/p>

                      There should be no resistance.\u2028<\/p>

                      Note: if it is difficult, push the lock buttons up more firmly.<\/p>

                      How to replace the head ?<\/p>

                      Align the cross-shaped hole of the head with the cross-shaped neck.<\/p>

                      Push down.<\/p>

                      DO NOT APPLY MUCH PRESSURE.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>

                      You should make sure that the head fully clicks in; both buttons should snap back into place. If they don\u2019t, you probably have the head in a wrong position.
                      Without pressing either lock buttons, gently attempt to lift the head up to ensure a solid connection.
                      The head should be secure.
                      If not, repeat the process and be more careful with your alignment.<\/p>

                      NAO \u2013 Doesn\u2019t stand up \u2013 How to fix Diagnostic File KO<\/h4>

                      After a NAOqi update (for example: going from 2.8.6.23 to 2.8.7.4) a customer can have a NAO that won\u2019t stand up.
                      The robot will activate its motors but won\u2019t move to the stand up position. It implies that the customer won\u2019t be able to use the robot correctly.
                      Why ?
                      This happens because of a Diagnostic file in NAO\u2019s memory containing a FAILED result. This result activates a safety that prevent NAO from moving its legs.
                      Instructions to follow :
                      These steps will guide you to have a correct Diagnostic file in the NAO memory.<\/p>

                      • Step 1: Connect via SSH protocol<\/li>
                      • Step 2: Check the diagnostic files in media internal folder<\/li>
                      • Step 3: Delete the KO diagnostic files<\/li>
                      • Step 4: Restart the robot and Autodiagnostic check up<\/li><\/ul>

                        Step 1: Connect via SSH protocol<\/p>

                        • Using Windows PowerShell :<\/li>
                        • From any location in your computer, press and hold SHIFT + right mouse click<\/li>
                        • Select \u201cOpen PowerShell window\u201d<\/li>
                        • Type the command line : ssh nao@NAO_IP_ADDRESS<\/li>
                        • if the following message appears, just validate by typing \u201cyes\u201d :<\/li>
                        • Using PuTTY:<\/li>
                        • Open a PuTTY terminal<\/li>
                        • Fill in the NAO IP address (wifi or ethernet), and use Port: 22<\/li>
                        • Click \u201cOpen\u201d<\/li><\/ul>

                          NOTE: From here the procedure is the same with a Linux \/ PowerShell window or PuTTY<\/p>

                          • Fill in the fields for login and password (by default, login : nao | password : nao)<\/li><\/ul>

                            Step 2: Check the diagnostic files in media\/internal folder<\/p>

                            • Go to the folder \u201cmedia\/internal\u201d using the command : cd \/media\/internal<\/li>
                            • Then use the command \u201cls\u201d to display the content of the folder<\/li><\/ul>

                              Step 3: Delete the KO diagnostic files<\/p>

                              • Check for the lines \u201cdiagnostic_2.8.x_P0000073xxxx\u201d that ends with KO<\/li>
                              • Delete those files using the command : rm Diag*<\/li><\/ul>

                                Step 4: Restart the robot \/ Autodiagnostic check up<\/p>

                                • Now all the diagnostic files are deleted.<\/li>
                                • Reboot NAO so it will start the Diagnostic Check Up behavior once again<\/li><\/ul>
