To perform a manual factory reset
A factory reset returns ALIF2100 unit to its default configuration.
1 Power on the ALIF2100 unit.
2 Use a long narrow implement (e.g. a straightened-out paper clip) to press-and-hold the recessed
reset button on the front panel for roughly ten seconds, until the status indicator turns
blue
(Note:
alternating red/green indications will occur during the ten second period while the button is still pressed)
.
3 Release the reset switch. The indicator will change to
red
for a short while (less than ten seconds)
and then back to
blue
while ALIF2100 unit performs the reset and should then change to an
alternative color, usually
orange
initially, signifying that the operation is complete.
Note: If you are performing a factory reset and intend to disconnect the power immediately after the reset,
you must wait at least 30 seconds after you have released the reset button for it to complete the process.
Teaming
ALIF2100 units are ready to automatically invoke teaming whenever
the CATx and SFP
(with either CATx or fiber modules installed)
ports
are both used to link transmitters and receivers. Teaming potentially
doubles the available bandwidth for video intensive applications and
also provides redundancy in case one link is lost.
* The units benefit from multiple audio signal streams:
•
Uni-directional analog audio
- from the host
PCs jack socket,
•
Bi-directional digital audio
- via the USB
connection (converted to/from analog),
•
Bi-directional digital audio
- via the video
connection.
