Chapter 2. General Information
2.1
Intended Use
The measuring system LB 565 can be used to determine the concentration of nearly all materials which can be dissolved or suspended in water using microwave technology. The following sensor
and evaluation unit versions are available:
1.
The container probes have been designed for installation into
pipelines with a nominal width of ≥ 200 mm and in containers,
for example, crystallizers. The probe is installed such that both
measuring rods (transmitter and receiver) are immersed into
the product being measured.
2.
The flow cell is a tubular probe, with microwave transmitter
and receiver being firmly welded onto the outside of the pipe.
The inside of the pipe is Teflon-coated. The flow cell is installed into the existing pipeline system inline or into a bypass.
The evaluation unit is available in two versions: The Standard
Model Micro-Polar Brix and the high dynamic version MicroPolar Brix ++. The evaluation unit Micro-Polar Brix ++ can only be
used when sufficiently large microwave attenuation (min. 40 dB) is
present. The Micro-Polar Brix should be used for lower microwave
attenuation.
During operation, the concentration measuring devices MicroPolar Brix and Micro-Polar Brix ++ send out electromagnetic radiation in the frequency range between 2.4 GHz and 2.5 GHz (range
restrictions depending on local regulations in your country). The
microwaves which emerge are not dangerous to human beings and
the environment (power emission < 10 mW). The microwaves are
emitted from the microwave window; the product is not changed
by the microwaves.
To ensure proper function of the meter, please pay attention to the
following:
¾ The material being measured must not be electrically conductive, i.e. the ohmic resistance is infinite.
¾ The product must not contain any gas bubbles, or gas bubbles
have to be compressed with adequate pressure when carrying
out measurements in pipelines.
¾ The ion concentration, e.g. salt content, has to be nearly constant.
¾ The total attenuation of microwave signals must be at least 40
dB for the Micro-Polar Brix ++. For details, see Chapter 3.4.1

3.1
Principle of Measurement
The microwaves that spread between the rods pass through the
product being measured; their propagation speed is slowed down
(= phase shift) and their intensity is damped (= attenuation).
Figure 3-1 illustrates the principle of measurement: the propagation speed of microwaves passing through the product being
measured is slowed down (phase shift) and their intensity (attenuation) is reduced, relative to a reference signal.

by product
Prerequisite is that the product being measured shows some
dielectric properties. In general, water is a very distinct dielectric fluid. The water or dry mass concentration, respectively, can
therefore be determined by measuring the phase shift and/or
attenuation.
The concentration to be detected in the product is therefore dependent in good approximation linear on phase shift and attenuation. For this reason we can measure the concentration or
the Brix content of the product using a linear calibration (see
chapter 3.2 Calculation of Measured Values ).
Micro-Polar Brix (++) LB 565
15
Chapter 3 System Description
3.2
Calculation of Measured Values
The microwave measuring phase and attenuation are calibrated
after an automatic plausibility analysis.
During calibration, the phase and/or the attenuation or a concentration value (or density value) are assigned by sampling. The
calibration is full automatic and the sample taking is supported by
the evaluation unit.
Which of the parameters, either phase, attenuation or both are
used for the calibration depends on the size and interference of the
measuring effect. For example, the attenuation is significantly
more sensitive to electrolytic conductivity (salt content).
In many cases, the mere phase measurement is recommended
and is calculated in good approximation by a linear calibration as
follows:
Con = A ⋅ ϕ + C
Con
A, C
ϕ
concentration
coefficients of respective calibration function
phase
The LB 565 allows you to calibrate, display and output two concentrations Con1 and Con2. You have to enter the calibration coefficients separately for concentration 1 and 2. For more information
please refer to the Software Manual.
3.3
Temperature Compensation
Temperature compensation (TC) is necessary if the product temperature varies. In general, we recommend connecting a temperature compensation, i.e. a temperature signal (0/4...20 mA or
Pt 100) to the evaluation unit and, if necessary, to enable the
compensation in the evaluation unit. The evaluation unit is designed such that the required TC’s can be calculated automatically.
The variation in temperature where temperature compensation
becomes absolutely essential is dependent on the product and on
the water content. In first approximation, ± 2°C should be set as
fluctuation limit.
TC has to be carried out whenever you are working with cooling
crystallizers.
16
Micro-Polar Brix (++) LB 565
Chapter 3 System Description
The TC corrects the phase and attenuation before the measured
value calculation (calibration), in most applications according to
the following formulae (linear compensation, additive).
ϕcomp = ϕmeas + Cϕ ⋅ Δθ
Dcomp = Dmeas + CD ⋅ Δθ

Δθ
= measured temperature (Tmeas) – reference temp. (TRef)
Depending on the selected function (additive, multiplicative, linear,
quadratic), the required temperature coefficients appear on the
Calibration menu. Temperature coefficients that are not used are
set to zero.
If you select two-range calibration (split concentration), separate
TC’s have to be entered for both concentration ranges. The coefficients are entered in the course of calibration.
TC can be carried out via Pt 100 or via current input. This has to
be defined on the Calibration menu. The Pt 100 temperature range
is between –50°C and +200°C.
How to work with the temperature compensation is described in
detail in the Software Manual.

Evaluation Units
The evaluation units consist of evaluation analyser with microwave
unit. The microwaves are generated, received and analyzed by the
microwave unit. Signal processing and communication take place
in the evaluation computer. For simple operation, the measuring
system includes a display, 4 softkeys and an alphanumeric keypad.
Different functions are assigned to the softkeys on the display.
Differences between Micro-Polar Brix ++ und MicroPolar Brix
The Micro-Polar Brix ++ evaluation unit, has an additional HF amplifier module in comparison to the standard model, whereby the
wall housing is larger (dimensions see chapter 6.2 Technical Data

evaluation unit). Otherwise, the evaluation units only differ in their
applications.
Higher product attenuations are allowed for the high dynamic version of Micro-Polar Brix ++. Therefore larger measuring paths can
be irradiated, for example measuring cells of larger nominal width
can be used. The application of both evaluation units is predetermined by the product attenuation. Up to an attenuation of 50 dB,
Micro-Polar Brix is used and beyond, Micro-Polar Brix ++. The Micro-Polar Brix ++ generally requires an attenuation of 40 dB. If
this is lower, the software indicates an error message (only on
software version 1.22).
An RS232 interface is included on the underside of the instrument.

Container Probe Type LB 5650 and Type LB 5651
The container probe has been specially designed for concentration
measurements in containers. Both measuring rods are immersed
into the product. Microwaves are emitted from one end of the rod
and received by the other end of the rod; they are emitted only
towards the opposite end of the rod. This direction characteristic of
the probe minimizes the interfering influence of metal parts in the
vicinity of the probe and allows installation if only little space is
available. For example, the concentration of sugar strike can be
measured continuously to find the suitable inoculation time.
The plastic rods meet the special requirements for application in
foodstuffs.

Chapter 3 System Description
Two different probe types are available:
¾ The standard type is the container probe without flushing device
¾ The container flush probe is employed in processes where incrustations are likely to occur, for example, due to increased
depositions. The flushing device prevents any deposition on the
microwave exit windows. Long travel times are supported by
continuous crystal processes (i.e. VKT).
The flow direction of the product being measured should be vertical, as shown in Figure 3-11. This ensures that the product between the measuring rods is representative, provided it is mixed
thoroughly.

The container flush probe has two flushing channels which keep
the plastic rod free from incrustations; this ensures that the microwaves come into direct contact with the product being measured. All parts coming into contact with the product meet the specific requirements for application in foodstuffs. Figure 3-14 shows

3.4.4
High-Frequency Cable
High-frequency cables (HF cable) are used to transmit microwaves
between probe and evaluation electronics.
HF cables change their conductivity (for microwaves) relative to
the temperature. Therefore, variations in the ambient temperature
would create measurement errors. This error is compensated for
by enabling the cable compensation. Influences of the ambient
temperature on the signal cable are compensated for by means of
the reference cable. The reference cable has the same length as
the signal cable; during operation, it should be exposed to the
same ambient temperature. Therefore, we recommend installing
both cable types together in a corrugated tube; this also simplifies
installation.
Special HF-cables are available for each sensor type. For the container probe (with and without flushing device) the HF-cable
quad is used (see Figure 3-16). It consists of four single HF-cables
of equal length, whose ends are terminated by one HF-connector
(N-type). Available cable lengths: 2, 4, 6 and 10 m.
Two cable versions are available for the flow cell.
Version 1: A HF cable quad as described above, where the reference cable is sort-circuited by means of the N-connector at the
side of the probe (see Figure 3-17). Available cable lengths: 2, 4,
6 and 10 m.
Version 2: The flow cell is connected using two separate HFcables (solid sheath cable) of equal length (signal cable). Another
separate cable, with the length corresponding to the sum of both
signal cables, makes up the reference cable (not shown). Available
lengths of the solid sheath cable: signal cable: 1.5 and 2.0 m; reference cable: 3.0 and 4.0 m.
Never bend HF cables! The bending radius should not be less than
100 mm. After installation, fix cables with cable binders.

Pipeline Measurement Configuration
The evaluation unit is installed in the immediate vicinity of the
container probe to keep the HF-cable between evaluation unit and
probe fairly short. The shorter the cable connection, the better the
stability of the measurement. The standard length is 2 m and the
maximum length of the HF-cables is 10 m.
The flow cell is installed into the existing pipeline system inline or
into a bypass. The orientation of the flow cell may either be vertical or horizontal. To rule out sedimentary depositions, vertical installation in a riser is preferred (see Figure 3-18).
The flow cell should be installed fairly close to the sampling location to ensure representative sampling for calibration.
For possibly required product temperature compensation, a representative temperature signal (current signal or Pt 100) has to be
connected to the evaluation unit.

Installation
4.2.1
Flow Cell Installation
For installation of the flow cell please keep in mind:
¾ The flow cell is installed into the pipeline system. Keep in mind
that material sampling should be possible for calibration directly behind the flow cell.
¾ The flow cell should be installed in a vertical riser, if possible. It
has to be ensured that no material depositions occur on the pipe walls and no bubbles are present in the product. For horizontal installation, please observe the correct orientation of the
HF-connections (see Figure 4-2).
¾ There should be a straight pipe section of at least 200 mm and
equal nominal width before and after the flow cell to ensure a
fairly homogeneous flow profile and to rule out possibly occurring microwave reflections in the pipeline.
Micro-Polar Brix (++) LB 565
31
Chapter 4 Getting Started
¾ No gas bubbles should be present in the product. If gas bubbles cannot be ruled out, a pressure of at least 4 bar is required in the pipeline to minimize the influence of gas bubbles.
Please observe the max. permissible working pressure (see
chapter 6.2 Technical Data Sensors)
¾ The high-frequency cable should preferably be connected to
the flow cell from below to prevent inflowing water from getting
to the connecting sockets.
min. 200 mm
¾ Measuring and reference cable should follow the same path as
much as possible to make sure both cables are exposed to the
same temperature and do not get in touch with warm pipelines.
We recommend installing the HF-cable through a common cable protection. If you are working with the HF-cables quad and
quad 2-port, this function is taken over by the corrugated tube.

Container Probe Installation
For installation, please keep in mind:
¾ Select the installation site such that good mixing and a homogeneous product are ensured and no bubbles are present in the
probe. A tap should be provided in the direct vicinity to allow
representative sampling.
¾ The probe has to be flange-mounted on the container such that
the product being measured flows between both measuring
rods. That means the fork (both measuring rods) has to be installed at an angle of 90° to the material flow.
¾ The distance between the measuring rod tips and any metalized walls (heating elements, stirrer, container wall) should be
at least 60 mm.
¾ The following installation hole sizes in the fitting flange
are required for installation of the probe:
Flange
Minimum installation hole size ∅ (mm)
DN 65 / PN 6
100 ± 0.2
others
102 ± 0.5
¾ For further installation dimensions please refer to chapter 8
(see installation sheets).
¾ Use the respective flat gasket (standard accessory) to compensate for minor surface tolerances in the fitting flange.
Installation on Process Containers
Figure 3-19 shows the position of the container probe on the container. This position is also valid for the container flush probe.
The assembly sheet in chapter 8 includes all the information required for installation.
Installation in Pipelines
The container probes can be installed in pipelines with a nominal
width ≥ 200 mm using an adapter flange. Please observe the position and orientation of the container probe (see the technical
drawings in chapters 8.4.7 and 8.5.6 Installation Situation in Pipelines).

Chapter 4 Getting Started
Connection of the flushing pipes
The container probe with flushing device consists of two flushing
devices with a 3/8 inch inner thread (DIN ISO 228-1). The flushing
connections are subsequently sealed to this thread. A sealing to
the probe cover is not permitted, for example with silicone.
Flush Parameters (only for container flush probe)
The degree of deposition or incrustation is essential for the flush
parameters, i.e. flush frequency and duration. The flush parameters have to be adapted to the product and the process.
The following independent flushing parameters for products and
processes have to be observed:
Flush solution
Temperature of
flush solution
Pressure
Fittings
Supply pipe
water, condensation
Maximum 120 °C
≥ 3 bar, max. 8 bar
2 x 3/8 inch female screw thread

≥ 1/2 inch
Independent flushing parameters product and process, typical
starting rates:
Interval
Duration
Temperature of
flush solution
every 2 hours
12 seconds
average product temperature, mostly 65 ±5°C
For measurements on the C-product the flushing intervals can be
considerably reduced, e.g. every 6 hours for 30 seconds.
The following is generally valid: the flushing devices can be
flushed simultaneously or in shifts. The flushing parameters are
valid for every flushing device.
The required flush duration has to take into account a possible
inertness of the system, e.g. valve openings. The flush supply
pipes have to be insulated well against heat to prevent that the
flush solution is initially colder.
Amount of water
34
The amount of water per flushing connector is approx. 0.8 l/sec at
a flushing pressure of 5 bars.

Installing the Evaluation Unit
For installation of the evaluation unit, please keep in mind:
¾ Install the evaluation unit in the vicinity of the microwave
probe, keeping in mind the length of the HF cable. HF cables
are available in a length of 2, 4, 6 and 10 m; the standard cable length are 2 or 4 m.
¾ Protect the instrument against vibrations.
¾ For instrument installation you should foresee a cutoff device to
allow easy and quick disconnection of the device from the
power supply.
¾ When installing the evaluation unit on a crystallizer, use a distance rail to minimize thermal radiation and heat conduction.
See Figure 4-3.
¾ When the evaluation unit is set-up outdoors, it has to be protected from direct sunshine and rain for example by means of
an adequately large protective roof.

Connecting the Evaluation Unit
Connecting the HF Cable
You need the following HF quad cable to connect the sensor to the
evaluation unit.
For the flow cell
Version1:
1 HF-cable quad with N-connector
Version 2:
2 x solid sheath cable (as signal cable, same length)
1 x solid sheath cable (as reference cable)
For the container probes
1 x HF-cable quad
Prerequisite for a proper measurement is the correct installation of
cables! Please keep in mind:
Make sure the cables do not get into contact with hot pipes over
the entire length (corrugated tube and single cable section after
splitting), e.g. direct contact with the device wall (not insulated).
This alone guarantees that all single cables are subject to the same ambient conditions and that the compensation of the cable
drift works properly.
Never bend HF cables! The bending radius should not be less than
100 mm. After installation, fix the cables with cable binders to
prevent the cable from slipping!

When tightening the 21 mm screw nut, make sure that the connector is not twisted on the cable. If the connector is twisted relative to the cable, the shielding may get damaged and this could
result in mismatching and bad sealing.
Hand tighten all screwed connections of the HF cable (2 Nm = 0.2
kg/m)! Before tightening, carefully screw on the cable by hand.
Caution! Threaded joint jams easily.
Occasionally you should check if the screwed connection is still
properly tightened. If the installation is exposed to vibrations, the
screwed connection may come loose and this may result in inaccurate measurements or corrosion of the connections.
As long as the cables are not connected, the coaxial sockets have
to be covered immediately with plastic caps and the cable connectors have to be protected by suitable provisions against moisture
and dirt.

Chapter 5 Service Instructions
Chapter 5. Service Instructions
5.1
General Information
The evaluation unit has no wearing parts or components requiring
any special maintenance.
A malfunction of the measuring system is not always due to a defect in the instrument. Often the error is caused by incorrect operation, wrong installation, or irregularities in the product being
measured.
If a malfunction occurs, anyway, the measuring system helps you
to identify and eliminate errors by displaying error messages on
the LCD, indicating operator errors and defects of the electronics.
Usually, faulty modules of the evaluation unit cannot be repaired
but have to be replaced. The microwave module is fixed with
screws to a shielding cover and must not be opened.
5.2
Wearing Parts
The evaluation unit consists of no wearing parts and components
that need special attention.
The plastic rods of the container probes and the PTFE lining of the
measuring cell can eventually experience abrasion depending on
the material being measured. A lower to middle abrasion influences inconsiderably the measurement or is compensated by calibration. Therefore, you should check the wearing parts approximately every 2 years.
The plastic rods of the container probe and the lining of the measuring cell can be exchanged if abrasion is heavy. During excessive
wear, the plastic rods of the container probe and the lining of the
Flow cells can be exchanged. These container probes and the Flow
cells have to be sent back to the company. An on-site exchange is
not possible.
5.3
Instrument Cleaning
Clean all system components using a moistened cloth. Do not use
any chemical cleaning agent. Parts coming into contact with the
product (during regular operation) can be cleaned with hot water,
taking into account the temperature limits (see chapter 6.2
Technical Data Sensors).
Micro-Polar Brix (++) LB 565

Chapter 5 Service Instructions
5.4
Battery
If the measuring system LB 565 is without power supply (power
failure or disconnected from mains), the system clock is supplied
with power by the Lithium battery on the CPU. The instrument
works correctly even with empty battery, only measured data
which are output via one of the serial interfaces may become useless as a result of the faulty date and time information.
The service life of the battery, even under continuous load, is at
least 8 years. To replace the battery, you have to disconnect the
instrument from mains.
Battery type: 3 Volt Lithium cell (round cell battery), type CR2032.
5.5
Fuse Replacement
The mains fuse of the LB 565 is located in the wall housing. Replace the fuses only if the instrument is disconnected from mains.
Be sure that the new fuses match the rating specified.
Use only fuses with correct rating:
For Micro-Polar Brix:
Instrument version with 90 ... 265 V AC: 2.0 A slow-blow
Instrument version with 24 V AC/DC: 2.0 A slow-blow
For Micro-Polar Brix ++:
Instrument version with 90 ... 265 V AC: 2.0 A slow-blow
Instrument version with 24 V DC: 6.3 A slow-blow
Spare fuses must match the rating specified by the device manufacturer. Short-circuiting or manipulation is not permitted.

Sigma max.
Here you set the maximum sigma of the regression Phase
vs. Frequency.
During normal measurement operation, sigma lies between 0 and 100.
Phi/att ratio
The correlation between Phase and Attenuation is another
plausibility criterion. It has to be measured when taking
the instrument into operation. The automatic ratio measurement is quite helpful (see Auto set).
Auto set
The automatic ratio measurement Phi/att can be turned
on and off.
Turn it on during start-up. During measurement, please
keep in mind:
• Cover the entire concentration range, if possible
• Do not stop the measurement
• Do not change the concentration erratically (max.
1 %).
Stopping the recording:
The measurement can be stopped by switching off record.
The recording is frozen and only restarts when the system
switched on again.
Start new recording:
Condition: Recording is switched off. Stop and start the
measurement before you start a new recording. The results of old recordings are deleted by doing so.
! After the measurement, the automatic measurement
has to be disabled again! The ratio value is automatically
stored and enabled on the PHI/ATT RATIO menu.

Here the pause function is activated and deactivated. Consider the measuring conditions for using the pause detection; see below.
Attenuation min
Input of the minimum attenuation, when falling below that
value measurement goes into pause mode.
Conditions and discription:
The pause detection function is a software feature for
pause detection between two sequential discontinuous
crystallization processes. This is interesting because during the cleaning phase, the sensor indicates the lower current output value (0/4 mA). Only after restart of a crystallization process, does the sensor show the current dry
substance content (Brix content) after product entry.
Condition: pure phase calibration first order. This corresponds to the default adjustment of the automatical calibration.
For example: typical signal behavior of two crystallization
processes.

therefore 65 to 95 %DS is entered.
Under PAUSE DETECTION:
The pause detection can be activated here.
Switching variable is the attenuation; if the entered
minimum attenuation is fallen short of, then the
evaluation unit pauses.
22
Micro-Polar Brix (++) LB 565
Chapter 2 Software Functions
Adjust these settings if applicable according to the conditions of „Quitting the pause mode” (see below).
Determination of the min. attenuation as a switching
variable:
For this, the attenuation process must be observed up to
the end of a crystalliza-tion process including cleaning
phase. In addition, you can take the data log (see chapter
2.2.2 diagnosis) for assistance.
For example, typical attenuation process:
Attenuation [dB]
D1
D2
Pause
D1 = smallest attenuation value in the product
D2 = Attenuation value for an empty vessel
D (min) = Switching variable = average attenuation between D1 and D2
Typical values (Sugar beet):
D1: -15 to -10 dB
D2: -25 to -20 dB
D (min): -20 to -15 dB
Quitting the pause mode (change to measuring mode):
Two conditions have to be met before changing the mode:
1.
The attenuation has to be higher than the attenuation threshold.
2.
The recent concentration (Conc act.) has to be in the
following range:
Conc act.> min. process limit
Conc act.< min. process limit – A1·Faktor·146

Calibration can be started after measurement of two samples and input of the respective laboratory values. Moreover, compensation can be enabled if the following prerequisites have been fulfilled:
1. The respective analog input has been enabled (Pt100 or
current input 1 / 2).
2. Sampling has been carried out using the previously set
up compensation input.
3. The reference value has been entered on the menu
COMPENSATION. The reference value is either the current
product temperature at system adjustment or the average
product temperature.
There are at least three samples needed for temperature
compensation, otherwise the calibration error “Keeping old
coefficients” appears at the evaluation unit.
Basis of automatic calibration (fixed setting):
• Linear phase calibration
• Compensation: additive and linear
Calibr. manual:
Here you can choose the calibration order [linear/quadratic], the basis [phase/attenuation or both] and
compensation temperature.
Tuning:
Subsequent correction of the reading is possible by entering a factor and an offset.

4.2 Start-up of Micro-Polar Brix ++
System adjustment and calibration are carried out in just the
same way for Micro-Polar ++, as they are for the standard
system Micro-Polar Brix. However it has to be paid attention
to the fact, that the ++system needs a minimum attenuation
of 40 dB above the complete concentration range and while
system adjustment. When falling below, the measurement is
not precise anymore and error prompts may occur.
The complete attenuation is generated the following way:
dB
total
= dB
adjust
+ dB
live
+ 0.4 x measuring cable length
This applies for:
total attenuation
dBtotal :
attenuation while system adjustment
dBadjust:
actual attenuation while measuring
dBlive:
measuring cable length: e.g. 4 meters of HF-cable quad results into 8 meters measuring cable length (counting both
ways, forward and backwards).
From software version 1.22 on, the evaluation unit is controlling the total attenuation automatically and shows an error
prompt when falling below (Error no. 55).
Remedy when falling below minimum attenuation:
If the necessary attenuation is not reached, it is possible to
install a 10 dB attenuator in the transmitter branch (see Figure 4-1). However when falling below significantly, the standard system Micro-Polar Brix should be used instead.

analysis for correct determination of the phase.
If you know the ratio already from other measurements, you
may enter it directly on the PLAUSIBILITY menu (see chapter

- Do not stop the measurement
- Do not change the concentration erratically (max. 1%).

With this type of calibration, two characteristic curves (concentrations) are combined in one measuring range; their
point of intersection defines the split value.

The displayed split value has been set by the manufacturer,
but has to be adapted to the respective application.
The samples should be chosen that way that the last sample of
the lowest concentration is as close as possible to the first sample of the highest concentration.
It is the ideal case, when the last sample of the initial concentration coincides with the first sample of the final concentration.

After completion of sampling, the individual samples will be
enabled or disabled during input of the laboratory values,
relative to the set split values. All samples smaller or equal
to the split value will be assigned to the lower concentration
range and all samples above to the upper concentration
range.
The correlation of the samples is carried out automatically,
for instance after setting the splitting value or after entering
the laboratory value (e.g. after re-sampling). The correlation
complies with both, the splitting value and the laboratory
value.
! By entering a splitting value, this automatic correlation
reactivates samples that had been deactivated before! In
such cases the deactivated samples should be deleted or
deactivated again after entering the splitting value.
The required splitting value has to comply with the intersection
of the two calibration characteristic lines. After calibration it is
adjusted automatically (only to a certain extend).

5.1 Forgot password
The device is in the “read only” mode and the user forgot the
password. In order to carry out a “reset” of the user level,
use the following way:
Switch of the device.
Switch it on again, the moment when all 5 LEDs light up
while booting the 0 (zero-key) has to be pushed constantly
for 8 seconds!
The device boots in basic mode now. Henceforward it can be
carried out a manual “general reset” or define a new password respectively.
