Hi Tim, Yeah I restarted the device to see what happened and it turns out as usual You need the passcode to get into a newly powered on IOS device as face id doesn’t work. But yes you got it correct,
I had to take it to work and plug it in to my 2018 MBP as I didn’t have a USB A to USB C cable. Then did what you’ve suggested. All now working well and pass code setup. Now I’ve gotta figure out why battery life is moving so quickly without anything on the device.

Are you stuck so that you can't even get to the Home screen? As in, you can't get past the pass-code screen? If that is the case, then a Mac and iTunes is your best friend. You can do the restore easily from the Mac. You may need to do the DFU, or if you download Apple Configurator 2 for your Mac, it's doable from there as well. Later...

I’ve just been checking the battery usage on my iPad pro 11” which is only 2 days old, The reason being that it’s just gone through 75% battery life within 36 hours and I’ve only really used it for a couple of hours of emailing and configuring So I eraised it and reset it up only to find I missed the step where I needed to set the passcode with my face id, Anyone know how to reset an iPad pro back to factory defaults so I can start the setup again? I’ve tried my normal passcode but I can confirm it doesn’t work. Any help on tis would be appreciated. If I can’t fix it, I’ve got a brand new iPad pro 11” for sale!
