Factory Reset a Zehnder ComfoClime Unit

This article describes how to perform a factory reset on the Zehnder ComfoClime 24/36 Arduino board. I find it necessary to document the steps as the description in the installation manual is incorrect.

Performing a Factory Reset on the ComfoClime Arduino Board

  • Press and hold the restore button.
  • Press the reset button once.
  • Continue to hold the restore button until the green LED to the right of the rotary switch starts blinking.
  • Release the restore button.
  • The Ardiuno board is reset to the factory settings.

I obtained the information about the correct procedure from Zehnder’s technical support. They were unaware of the incorrect description in the manual.

Re-Provisioning After the Factory Reset

As the ComfoClime loses all settings (including the WiFi connection) during the factory reset it needs to be re-provisioned. This is easiest to do with the ComfoClime app via Bluetooth. A few tips:

  • Connect your phone to the WiFi network you want the ComfoClime to join.
  • The phone needs to be very close to the ComfoClime’s Arduino board for the Bluetooth connection to succeed.

Samba & SMB Web Access Through Filestash With Passthrough Auth
This article explains how to set up Filestash in a Docker container as a web interface for browser-based access to a Samba or SMB file server. This newer configuration improves on my earlier Filebrowser setup in one essential point: the SMB storage is accessed as the authenticating user, i.e., the user authentication is passed through to the backend storage. This means that each user sees exactly the directories and files they have access to. When a new file is created through Filestash, it’s stored with the proper permissions as if it had been created it via SMB.
