Purpose/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 the “

Matrix

Software

”section 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 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.
