Purpose/Notes

1Hold down the recessed Reset button while applying power to the IPL T S unit.

After a mode 1 reset is performed, update the unit’s firmware to the latest version. Do not operate the unit’s firmware version that results from the mode 1 reset. If you want to use the factory default firmware, you must upload that version again.

The unit reverts to the factory default firmware. Event scripting will not start if the unit is powered on in this mode. All user files and settings (drivers, adjustments, IP settings, etc.) are maintained.

If you do not want to update firmware, or you performed a mode 1 reset by mistake, cycle power to the unit to return to the firmware version that was running prior to the mode 1 reset. Use the 0Q SIS command to confirm that the factory default firmware is no longer running (look for asterisks following the version number.)

Use mode 1 to revert to the factory default firmware version if incompatibility issues arise with user-loaded firmware.
