AnywAiR Ducted Tablet Reset / Restore Procedure

Restoring UTY-ANY1 tablet operation after a factory reset
Use this procedure when the anywAiR control tablet displays the “Vinculum Accessory Test” message or no longer operates the anywAiR system following a reset.
A factory reset removes the applications required for the tablet to operate with the UTY-ANY1 control system. Restoring the three required applications returns the tablet to normal anywAiR operation.
