SMX System MultiMatrix Switcher • Front Panel Operation

Using Reset Levels

The rear panel has a recessed Reset button (see

page 3

) that initiates

four levels of resets (numbered 1, 3, 4, and 5). Use a pointed stylus,
ballpoint pen, or Extron Tweeker to access it and select the reset level.
See the

Reset Mode Table

on page 17 for a summary of the modes.

CAUTION:

Review the reset modes carefully. Using the wrong
reset mode may result in unintended loss of flash
memory programming, port reassignment, or a
controller reboot.

NOTES:

The reset modes listed below close all open IP and

Telnet connections and sockets. Also, the following
modes are separate functions, not a continuation from
mode 1 to mode 5.

If the reset button is continuously held down, the I/O
lights flash every 3 seconds as the next reset level is
reached, corresponding to modes 3, 4, and 5.

Reset Mode Uses

Use mode 1 to revert to the factory default firmware version if
compatibility issues arise with user-loaded firmware (see

notes

on

page 17).
Use mode 3 to restart the communication and control events.
Use mode 4 to reset most IP protocols to their default settings.
Use mode 5 to restore the switcher to the default conditions.

NOTE: Mode 5 reset clears most adjustment. To save these

settings, use the SMX Control Program and the File >
Save MATRIX settings as...

selection before you

perform this reset (see

Configuration and Control

on
