New to me Power Connect 2816 Switch - Can't get past Restore Saved Configuration page
I set the IP address on my PC to 192.168.2.10 with the 255.255.255.0 subnet. Plugged in the ethernet and plugged the switch in. After it booted up, I pushed the manage switch and got in to the page below. Since it is used, it had an IP address assigned. I checked Use Current IP and Use Default User name/Password. Lastly, I clicked Apply Changes and here I sit.
What hoops do I need to jump through to get this thing set so I can use it. Thank you.

Hello,
you have to erase configuration to reset the device.
So via serial connection you go on the startup menu and choose option 2
