BPS
ERROR CODES
Additionally the red status LEDs are used to indicate any boot failures of the BPS that prevent
the unit from operating. Error codes are displayed by a repeating pattern of flashing both LEDs
a number of times in succession, followed by a 1 second pause:
1 flash - Invalid firmware version (reload firmware from Designer)
2 flashes - Invalid device type or serial number
3 flashes - Internal memory test error
4 flashes - Unable to perform factory restore due to corrupt factory firmware
5 flashes - Current firmware is corrupt, no valid firmware versions available to restore
6 flashes - Restored firmware is corrupt
Codes 2 through 6 indicate a hardware error; please consult your distributor, representative or
ETC support for assistance.
ADDRESS WHEEL
Multiple BPSs may be used on a single network. Each BPS is uniquely identified by its address
setting.
Wheel settings '1' to '15' directly set the BPS's address to the corresponding number. Up to 15
BPSs may be addressed in this way. For systems with more, the manual ('M') setting should be
used to allow identification using the BPS's serial number rather than the address.
RESET SWITCH
The BPS may be reset by removing the magnetic overlay and inserting a small blunt object into
the reset hole centred between the top four buttons to depress the reset switch. The switch
should be held for at least one second.
WATCHDOG
An internal "watchdog" will automatically reset the BPS in case of a software crash as a result of
either a coding error ("bug") or a random electromagnetic event such as a power brown-out or
spike, nearby lightning strike or static discharge.
LEARNING IR RECEIVER
The BPS may be taught to recognise up to 8 different IR codes from a standard infra red remote
control. When a key on the remote control is pressed during normal operation, the BPS will
react as though one of its 8 buttons has been pressed.
NOTE: The reset must not be operated during firmware updates to the BPS as
corruption of the software may occur, perhaps even rendering the unit
inoperable.
