ATTENTION: Review the reset modes carefully. Using the wrong reset mode may result
in unintended loss of flash memory programming, port reassignment, or processor
reboot.
NOTE: The reset modes listed in the table below close all open IP and Telnet
connections and all sockets. Each mode is a separate function, not a continuation from
mode 1 to mode 5.
SMX Series MultiMatrix Switcher Reset Mode Summary
Mode and Activation Result Purpose/Notes
Use Factory
Firmware
1. Hold down the recessed Reset button while
applying power to the SMX.
NOTE: After a mode 1 reset is performed,
update the SMX firmware to the latest
version. Do not operate the firmware
version that results from this mode reset.
If you want to use the factory default
firmware, upload that version again (see
page 83 or page 96 for details on
uploading firmware).
The SMX reverts to the factory default
firmware. Event scripting does not start if the
SMX is powered on in this mode. All user files and
settings (drivers, adjustments, IP settings, and so
on) are maintained.
NOTE: If you do not want to update firmware,
or if you performed a mode 1 reset by mistake,
cycle power to the SMX to return to the
firmware version that was running prior to the
mode 1 reset. Use the 0Q
SIS command
on page 45 to confirm that the factory default
firmware is no longer running (look for asterisks
following the version number).
This mode reverts to the
factory default firmware
version if incompatibility
issues arise with user-
loaded firmware.
NOTE: User-defined
web pages may
not work correctly
if using an earlier
firmware version.
