Instruction Manual – DXLink™ Twisted Pair Transmitters/Receiver
To reset a Transmitter or Receiver to its factory default settings:
1.
Press and hold the ID Pushbutton while plugging in the power connector. Start counting when the
NetLinx LEDs begin to flash in unison, not when the power connector is inserted.
Once the Transmitter or Receiver has started booting up, both NetLinx 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.
Note: A press-and-hold of the ID Pushbutton at power up will prevent the Transmitter or Receiver
from attempting to come online until the ID Pushbutton is released. The Transmitter or Receiver will
only attempt to come online if you release the Pushbutton prior to the faster blink rate.
2. At the point that the blink rate increases, release the ID Pushbutton.
3. The Transmitter or Receiver will automatically reboot to complete the process.
The ID Pushbutton and the Reset button are located on the left edge of the Wallplate TX.
To reset the Wallplate TX to its factory default settings:
1.
Press and hold the ID Pushbutton. While the ID Pushbutton is down, press and release the Reset
button. Start counting when the NetLinx LEDs begin to flash in unison, not when the Reset button is
released.
Once the Wallplate TX has started booting up, both NetLinx LEDs (on bottom edge) 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.
Note: A press-and-hold of the ID Pushbutton at boot will prevent the Wallplate TX from attempting to
come online until the ID Pushbutton is released. The Wallplate TX will only attempt to come online
if you release the Pushbutton prior to the faster blink rate.
2. At the point that the blink rate increases, release the ID Pushbutton.
3. The Wallplate TX will automatically reboot to complete the process.
Restore the Factory Firmware Image
During power up if the ID Pushbutton is held for 20 seconds and released, the module’s factory firmware
image will be restored.
Instructions for the modules are given first followed by the instructions for the Wallplate TX, which
receives its power over DXLink from the switcher.
Important: If a Transmitter or Receiver Module is receiving power from a switcher, on the module
disconnect the RJ-45 cable from the DXLink connector before starting the instructions below.
To reset the Transmitter or Receiver to its factory default firmware image:
1.
Press and hold the ID Pushbutton while plugging in the power connector (if the power source is a
switcher, plug in the RJ-45 connector into the DXLink port instead). Start counting when the
NetLinx 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 Transmitter or Receiver 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 go to solid on.
