Startup sequence and recovery from an error condition
The M series Digital Mixer features an advanced booting system that ensures the unit correctly powers up
in any condition. The white front LED gives indications about the startup process, which is divided into
several stages.
It can happen that the internal files of the mixer are corrupted, typically when a firmware update
procedure is halted by mistake, by powering down the unit during the process or immediately after.
If the bootloader detects a corrupted file within it internal memory, then it forces the M18 to start in
RECOVERY MODE. This is a special mode in which a clean image is loaded and allows for proper upgrading
to the latest firmware, if needed.
The RECOVERY MODE is indicated in the Firmware version field, in both MixRemote (SETTINGS > SYSTEM),
and in MixUpdate apps. After a mixer starts in RECOVERY MODE, please check if later firmware updates are
available on RCF web site to ensure that you can take advantage of all functionalities.
