Only the proper reset was needed. Inside of the unit, close to the front panel there is an 8 position DIP switch. The uppermost switch should change the position and then the reset button on the front panel should be pressed. The unit reset is finalized by turning the unit off, then DIP switch should be pressed into the initial position and when you switch the unit on, everything is OK.
