Resetting the Unit with the Reset Button
There are four reset modes (numbered 1, 3, 4, and 5 for the sake of comparison
with Extron IPL products) that you can access by pressing the Reset button on the
rear panel. The Reset button is recessed, so use a pointed stylus, ballpoint pen, or
Extron Tweeker to press it. See the table below for a summary of the reset modes.
C Review the reset modes carefully. Using the wrong reset mode may result
in unintended loss of flash memory programming, port reassignment, or
processor reboot.
N The reset modes listed in the table close all open IP and Telnet connections and
close all sockets. Also, each mode is a separate function, not a continuation
from mode 1 to mode 5.
