VIAVI TestCenter - What's the purpose of reset button in a controller 3 VIAVI chassis?
The reset button is designed to reset just the chassis firmware without test modules reboot. Chassis and modules should reboot via power cycle (Power button).
When you press and hold the chassis reset button, you will see the firmware reboot in the monitor but the chassis/modules do not reboot (and the chassis front panel LED indictors do not change as well).
