NOTE: When in ID Mode, the entire system is put on hold while it waits for an event
from any NetLinx device in the named system (e.g., pressing the ID Pushbutton on
the switcher). The device that generates the first event is the device that will be
“identified.”
6.
Briefly press and release the ID Pushbutton on the switcher. The switcher will
exhibit the following behavior:
• Respond with an ID Mode address response.
• Report its old address offline.
• Report its new address online.
The Online Tree will refresh to display the new device address for the switcher.
NOTE: NetLinx Studio (v3.3 or later) provides the ability to auto-increment IP
Addresses and Hostnames as well as Device and System Numbers. Refer to the
NetLinx Studio online help for details.
Restore the Factory Firmware Image and Factory Default Parameters
During power up
– if you hold the ID Pushbutton until the STATUS and
LINK/ACT LEDs toggle back and forth in unison approximately 30 times (10 slow,
20 fast) and then release the pushbutton when the LEDs turn solid, the switcher’s
factory firmware image will be restored. This procedure affects both the firmware
version and the parameters.
Perform these steps to restore the factory firmware image and factory default
parameters:
1.
Press and hold the ID Pushbutton while plugging in the power connector.
Start counting when the STATUS and LINK/ACT LEDs begin to flash in unison,
not when the power connector is inserted.
2.
After the LEDs complete the following sequence, release the ID Pushbutton:
• Once the switcher has started booting up, all LEDs flash in unison at the rate
of once per second.
• After 10 flashes at that rate, the LEDs will blink in unison at a faster rate.
• After 10 seconds of flashing at the increased rate, all LEDs turn on solid.
3.
Upon release of the ID Pushbutton, the switcher executes the following
actions:
• Restores itself to its factory firmware image.
• Resets to factory default parameters
4.
Once all actions in Step 3 are completed, the LEDs all turn off, indicating the
switcher is ready to reboot.
The switcher automatically reboots to complete the process.

Important Twisted Pair Cabling Requirements and Recommendations
The following requirements and recommendations apply to cabling DXLink
(RJ-45) connectors:
• DXLink cable runs require shielded category cable (STP) of Cat6 (or better).
• DXLink twisted pair cable runs for DXLink equipment shall only be run within
a common building.*
• DXLink delivers 10.2 Gb/s throughput over shielded category cable. Based
on this bandwidth requirement, we recommend following industry standard
practices designed for 10 Gigabit Ethernet when designing and installing
the cable infrastructure.
• The cables should be no longer than necessary to reach the endpoints. We
recommend terminating the cable to the actual distance required rather
than leaving any excess cable in a service loop.
For more details and helpful cabling information, reference the white paper titled
"Cabling for Success with DXLink" available at www.amx.com or contact your
AMX representative.
* "Common building" is defined as: Where the walls of the structure(s) are
physically connected and the structure(s) share a single ground reference.
