There are five reset modes available by using the Reset button
( ) on the front panel. The Reset button is recessed, so use of
5
a pointed stylus, ballpoint pen, or Extron Tweeker is suggested.
Review the reset modes carefully. Use of the wrong
CAUTION
reset mode may result in unintended loss of flash
memory programming, reassignment of ports, or a
IPL M PDP-ES reboot.
The listed reset modes (with the exception of
CAUTION
mode 2) closes all open IP connections to the unit.
If the reset button is continuously held down, every three
seconds the LED pulses (blink) and puts the unit in a
different reset mode, corresponding to the underscored
notes in modes 3 through 5. The mode 5 LED blinks
three times, the third blink indicating that it's the last
mode.
The following modes are listed as separate functions, not
as a continuation from mode 1 to mode 5.
Mode 1 — Holding the reset button while applying power
defaults the unit back to the base firmware that shipped
with the unit from the factory. Event scripting does not
start when the unit is powered on in this mode. This
allows you to recover a unit that has incorrect code or
updated firmware running. All user files and settings are
maintained. User Web pages may not work correctly with
an earlier firmware version.
Mode 2 — Momentarily (<1 second) pressing the reset button
and entering three "+"s into the RS-232 port of the
interface card (e.g., "+++" within 2 seconds of the
momentary press) enables the connected COM port to be
used as a console port to send SIS commands. If the three
"+"s are not entered in the 2 second time frame, the COM
port remains or returns to being a control port only.
A mode 2 reset disconnects a pass-through connection.
Mode 3 — Holding the reset button until the Power LED blinks
once (3 seconds), followed by a momentary
(<1 second) press turns events either On or Off,
depending on the current state of the events:
•
If the events are currently stopped following the
momentary (<1 second) press, the Power LED flashes
twice, indicating the starting of events.
