Extron electronic IPL T S Series - Manual (Page 23)

2-11 IPL T S Series • Installation and Operation
N If the Reset button is continuosly held down, every three seconds the LED pulses
(blinks) and puts the unit in a different mode. The Mode 5 LED blinks three
times, the third blink indicating that it is the last mode. The following modes are
separate functions, not a continuation from Mode 1 to Mode 5.
The unit reverts to the factory default
firmware.
Event scripting will not start if
the unit is powered on in this mode. All
user files and settings (drivers,
adjustments, IP settings, etc.) are
maintained.
If you do not want to update
firmware, or you performed a mode 1 reset
by mistake, cycle power to the unit to
return to the firmware version that was
running prior to the mode 1 reset. Use the
0Q SIS command to confirm that the
factory default firmware is no longer
running (look for asterisks following the
version number.)
The connected COM port becomes a
console port to send SIS commands.
Scripting remains on.
Mode 3 turns events on or off. During
resetting, the Reset LED flashes 2 times if
events are starting, 3 times if events are
stopping.
Mode 4
• Enables ARP capability.
• Sets the IP address back to factory
default (192.168.254.254).
• Sets the subnet back to factory default.
• Sets the default gateway address back
to the factory default.
• Sets port mapping back to factory
default.
• Turns DHCP off.
• Turns events off.
Reset LED flashes 4 times in quick
succession during reset.
Mode 5 performs a complete reset to
factory defaults (except the firmware).
• Does everything mode 4 does.
• Resets almost all the real time
adjustments: all audio settings, limit
initial power up volume, power
up/down delay, auto power down, and
misc. options. This does not affect an
optional MLS switcher, however.
• Clears driver-port associations and port
configurations (IR/RS-232).
• Removes button configurations.
• Resets all IP options.
• Removes scheduling settings.
• Removes/clears all files from switcher.
The Reset LED flashes 4 times in quick
succession during the reset.
