Clearing files from the Ruida Controller

Cleaning your file system memory on the Ruida Controller should be part of your periodic maintenance. The controllers onboard memory is limited and as it nears its max capacity of 128mb we have seen some file corruption and file sending issue. So it is always best to clear unused and unnecessary files loaded into this onboard memory. 
Below you will find the processes to clear files directly from the controller and from Lightburn.
