1
Hold the reset button while
applying power.
NOTE: After a mode 1 reset, update the
MVC 121 Plus firmware to the latest
version. DO NOT operate the firmware
version that results from this mode reset.
The MVC 121 Plus reverts to the
factory default firmware.
Event scripting does not start if the
MVC 121 Plus is powered on in this
mode. All user files and settings
(drivers, adjustments, IP settings,

NOTE: If you do not want to update the firmware,
or perform a mode 1 reset by mistake, cycle
power to the MVC 121 Plus to return to the
firmware version running prior to the reset.
This mode reverts to the
factory default firmware
version if incompatibilty
issues arise with user-
loaded firmware.
