SDS100/SDS200: Reset color settings back to new

[Mcfarkey]

I just got my SDS100 and love it and must have pressed something as the display went to basically one green color for all displays.
How do I get it back to what I had an hour ago - BTW I did do a read from scanner and a save first thing.
I have attached a snapshot of the screen - Thank you for any guideance!

Regards,

Mark

Press “menu”, select “settings”, select “restore options”. Either “clear user data” or “reset user options” should do it. Clear user data is a full factory reset and deletes everything. Reset user options retains your favorite list.

Backup your data before you do this!

TexTAC - Its better but I though out of the box it had blues and such - I guess I can customize the display
Thank you both for your time!

I don’t remember what the factory colors were. You may also be able to restore the originals settings in Sentinal. There should be an edit display menu option on the top menu bar and restore default may be an option if you select it.

Edit>Edit Display. A popup window opens. Look at the bottom for a "Reset to Initial" command button.

"Clear User Data" is a powerful option that erases Favorites Lists, recordings and any other inputs. Should be used with greatest of caution.

Thank you for that Caution - I have presets and such I don't want to use - Reset user options did not bring back the factory colors - guess I'll just have to edit the display to get them back - thanks all! A lot to this radio!! This forum is great.
Have a terrific and safe weekend!

There are a number of "options" or settings on the top. You have to open each one to adjust the color scheme or reset the color scheme. Its possible you may not have selected the appropriate display option.

Under the File tab in Sentinel, you can Export and save your display settings as an HML file. You can then Import the settings to restore your original configuration.

If you just hit something on the scanner then just hook up to pc and write to scanner from pc
