    Console into the AP and stop it from booting. Then type purge -> enter -> save -> enter -> boot -> enter.

    Not so easy. For 61/65/70 you have to use serial-over-ethernet. You can DIY cable (or have one from ARUN). You can enable soe in your config and then connect to the console output telnetting to the controller. It is really ancient - ARUN discontinued it many years ago. Anyway look for SOE or SPOE at forum. 

    HTH,

    I think you can Telnet SOE with 800.  Here is my note for 2400:

    Telnet SOE to AP

     

    telnet <controller-ip> 2300 (must allow soe in config telnet soe)

    soe> connect 1/0 (AP is in controller 1 port 0)

    reboot ap and hit enter within 3 second to get to rom monitor

    purge, save, boot will set AP to factory default, or you can set static IP address:

    apboot> setenv ipaddr <ip add of ap>

    apboot> setenv netmask

    apboot> setenv gatewayip

    apboot> setenv master <ip of master>

    apboot> setenv serverip (usually ip of master)

    apboot> printenv (or print)

    save

    boot
