DTP CrossPoint 4K Series Matrix Switchers • Operation 51
Rear Panel Operations
The rear panel has a Reset button that initiates three levels of resets (numbered 1, 4, and 5
for the sake of comparison with Extron IPL products). The Reset button is recessed, so use
a small screwdriver, a pointed stylus, or a ballpoint pen.
NOTE: This section describes the functions of the switcher Reset button (see item
T
on page 18), not the IPCP control module Reset button.
See the table below for a summary of the modes.
ATTENTION:
• Review the reset modes carefully. Using the wrong reset may result in unintended
loss of flash memory programming, port reassignment, or a switcher reboot.
• Étudier de près les différents modes de réinitialisation. Appliquer le mauvais mode
de réinitialisation peut causer une perte inattendue de la programmation de la
mémoire flash, une reconfiguration des ports ou une réinitialisation du processeur.
NOTE: The reset modes listed below close all open IP and Telnet connections and close
all sockets. Also, the following modes are separate functions, not a continuation from
Mode 1 to Mode 5.
Reset Mode Comparison and Summary
Mode Activation Result Purpose and Notes
1
Hold down the recessed Reset button while
applying power to the switcher.
NOTE: After a mode 1 reset is
performed, update the
switcher firmware to the latest
version. Do not operate the
switcher firmware version that
results from the mode 1 reset.
If you want to use the factory
default firmware, you must
upload that version again
(see Updating the Firmware
on page 93 for details on
uploading firmware).
The switcher reverts to the factory default firmware.
Event scripting will not start if the switcher is powered on
in this mode. All user files and settings (such as drivers,
adjustments, and IP settings) are maintained.
NOTE: If you do not want to update firmware,
or you performed a mode 1 reset by mistake,
cycle power to the switcher to return to the
firmware version that was running before the
mode 1 reset. Use the
0Q SIS command (see
the Query controller firmware version SIS
command on page 76) to confirm that the
factory default firmware is no longer running
(look for the asterisk [*] following the version
number).
Use mode 1 to revert
to the factory default
firmware version if
incompatibility issues
arise with user-loaded
firmware.
4
Hold down the Reset button for about
6 seconds, until the Reset LED blinks
twice (once at 3 seconds and again at 6
seconds). Then press and release Reset
(<1 second) within 1 second. Nothing
happens if the second momentary press
does not occur within 1 second.
Mode 4:
• Enables ARP capability.
• Sets the IP address to the factory default.
• Sets the subnet address to the factory default.
• Sets the gateway address to the factory default.
• Sets port mapping to the factory default.
• Turns DHCP off.
• Turn events off.
The Reset LED blinks four times in quick succession.
Mode 4 enables you
to set IP address
information using ARP
and the MAC address.
5
Hold down the Reset button for about
9 seconds, until the Reset LED blinks
three times (once at 3 seconds, again at
6 seconds, and then again at 9 seconds).
Then press and release Reset (<1 second)
within 1 second. Nothing happens if the
second momentary press does not occur
within 1 second.
Mode 5 performs a complete reset to factory
defaults (with the exception of the firmware):
• Does everything mode 4 does.
• Resets most real time adjustments, including:
clears all ties and presets,
clears all HDMI mutes,
enables all RS-232 pass-throughs,
clears all audio settings.
• Resets all IP options.
The Reset LED blinks four times in quick succession.
Mode 5 is useful if you
want to start over with
configuration.
