Resetting the Unit
There are four reset modes (numbered 1, 3, 4, and 5 for the sake of comparison
with an Extron IPL product) that are available by pressing the Reset button on the
side panel. The Reset button is recessed, so use a pointed stylus, ballpoint pen, or
Extron Tweeker to access it. See the following table for a summary of the modes.
C
Review the reset modes carefully. Using the wrong reset mode may result
in unintended loss of fl ash memory programming, port reassignment, or a
controller reboot.
N
The reset modes listed below close all open IP and Telnet connections and close
all sockets. Also, the following modes are separate functions, not a continuation
from Mode 1 to Mode 5.

After a mode 1 reset
is performed, update the
MLC’s firmware to the
latest version.
Do not
operate the MLC 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
appendix B, “Firmware
Updates,” for details on
uploading firmware.

If you do not want to update
firmware, or you performed a mode 1 reset
by mistake, cycle power to the MLC 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.)
