5.12 Forcing the CPU card to the factory default IP
address
In rare situations, the CPU card may not be able to find a valid IP address for the
Ethernet port. To address this issue, you can force the matrix to the factory default IP
address (169.254.0.100):
13) Set your PC Ethernet IP address to DCHP mode.
14) Directly connect the PC to the matrix, using an Ethernet crossover cable.
15) Force the system to use the default IP address, by performing the 3-finger
reset. Press and hold both the ENG and FULL RESET front panel buttons
simultaneously, then press the top RESET button.
1. When the CPU card OK LED starts to flash, release both the ENG and FULL
RESET buttons.
