If you want to reset or just update field value, you can do:

reset: reset({key: value, k2:v2});

update: 

　　1. patchValue({k: v}); update part of form fields

　　2. setValue({k:v, k1: v1...}); update whole form fields.

 

reset:

onAdd() {    this.added.emit(this.parent.get('selector').value);    this.parent.get('selector')      .reset({        quantity: 10,        product_id: ''      })  }

All the 'dirty, touched, valid' props on form will also be reset.

 

Update:

onAdd() {    this.added.emit(this.parent.get('selector').value);    this.parent.get('selector')      .patchValue({        product_id: ''      })  }

For 'patchValue', we only need to update part of props, not all of them. 

 

onAdd() {    this.added.emit(this.parent.get('selector').value);    this.parent.get('selector')      .setValue({        quantity: 10,        product_id: ''      })  }

For 'setValue', you have to update all the fields, otherwise it will throw error.
