Gen3 charger won't accept change from 30A to 60A

Originally, I configured my Gen3 charger to 30A, because that matched the breaker. With new wiring + breakers supporting higher amperage, I attempted to change it to 60A and saw this. Anybody know how to effect this change? The Gen3 charger won't accept a modification....

Did you try cutting the power and then trying a reinstall of everything, software wise on the WC, from zero? It may be defaulting to the original setting, etc. and not be smart enough to reset on its own... Good luck!

I definitely cut the power (in order to finish upgrade from 30A to 60A). But that didn't seem to work. I didn't know you could reset/reinstall the WC -- how do you do that?

To be fair, empiredown's answer was 100% accurate, too. The Installing a Wall Connector document says
To connect to the Wall Connector’s access point with a smartphone or laptop, scan the QR code on the Quickstart Guide sticker, or manually connect to the Wi-Fi network with the SSID and Password provided.
It's just that since everything looks exactly the same after you integrate the charger into your home network, you'll probably think it should work the same way as it did when you used the internal hotspot. That was my initial mistake anyway and I'm probably not alone.

Worked like a charm. I didn't realize there was a button on the handle.....
The nice part was I didn't have to re-configure the Wifi -- it saved the previous settings w/ my home network. So, it's not truly a "hard reset" that goes back to factory conditions.
