8.1.4 Reseting default values
It is strongly recommended resetting all of the default values of your SmartMatriX² unit before setting up your
shows and events. This will help eliminate confusion caused by unneeded settings from a previous operator.
To do so, press the EXIT/MENU button and select Control in the menu by rotating the corresponding knob.
Then press the ENTER button to enter the Reset/Erase sub-menu. Select Default Values by rotating the scroll
knob, and press the ENTER button to enter your choice to restart your SmartMatriX² with its factory settings.
This operation should take approximately 30 seconds.
8.1.5 SmartMatriX² color codes
Analog Way engineers have developed a handy, user friendly way of identifying machine status on the front
panel, via the use of color codes on the buttons of the machine. All new Analog Way machines use the same
codes, for quick recognition of the status of any device of the range, at any given time.
For the SmartMatriX², button color codes are as follow:
• Sources on the Program output are indicated in
• Sources on the Preview output are indicated in
• Buttons in the layer section turn
respectively the Program or Preview window,

or red once it is on the Program output,
• TAKE button reacts as follows:
