Resetting the Unit
There are three reset modes available by using the Reset button
(item
5
, page 2-2) on the rear panel. The Reset switch is
recessed, so use of a pointed stylus, ballpoint pen, or Extron
Tweeker is suggested.
CAUTION
Review the reset modes carefully. Use of the wrong
reset mode may result in unintended loss of flash
memory programming, reassignment of ports, or
unit reboot.
Mode 1
— Pressing and holding the Reset button until the front
panel LCD display shows “Reset Mode 1” (3 seconds),
then immediately pressing the button momentarily (for
less than one second), causes all events to stop running.
The LCD screen displays “Unit reset” when the Mode 1
reset is complete.
Nothing happens if the second, momentary press does
not occur within one second.
Mode 2
— Pressing and holding the Reset button until the front
panel LCD display shows “Reset Mode 2” (5 seconds),
then immediately pressing the button momentarily (for
less than one second) erases all user flash memory, resets
ports to default conditions, and reboots the unit. The LCD
screen displays “Unit reset” when the Mode 2 reset is
complete.
Nothing happens if the second, momentary press does
not occur within one second.
