Locking the Front Panel (Executive Mode)

The front panel security lockout limits the operation of the switcher from the front panel. When the switcher is locked, all of the front panel functions are disabled except for the View-Onlymode functions and deselecting the front panel Lock mode (see Viewing the Configuration on page 31). Other than in View-Onlymode, if the user pushes a front panel button when the switcher is locked, the View and Preset buttons flash twice and return to their previous state.

To toggle the lock on and off, press and hold the Enter button and the Esc button for approximately two seconds (see figure 23).

Press and hold the Enter and Esc buttons simultaneously to toggle Executive mode on or off.

Performing a System Reset from the Front Panel

The front panel reset is identical to issuing the EZXXX} SIS command (see page 64). A system reset clears all ties and presets and resets all I/O grouping.

NOTES:

You must apply power from an unpowered state. Applying the redundant power with primary power already applied does not reset the switcher.

System reset does not reset the Internet protocol (IP) settings or replace user-installed firmware.

Reset the switcher to the factory default settings by pressing and holding the View button and Esc button simultaneously while you apply AC power to the switcher (see figure 24).

Press and hold the View and Esc buttons while you apply power to the switcher.

Continue to hold the View and Esc buttons until all input and output buttons return to either unlit or to background illumination.

Release the View and Esc buttons.
