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.

R E S E T Mode 1 — Pressing and holding the Reset button until the front

M O D E 1panel 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.

R E S E T Mode 2 — Pressing and holding the Reset button until the front

M O D E 2panel 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.
