Factory Reset your FTP Hardware

You can perform a factory reset which will initialize your patches and global parameters to factory defaults if you press down and hold the ENTER Key




while powering on the FTP Controller using the side mounted slide Power On/Off switch 


How to Force a reload of the FTP firmware in your FTP Hardware.   

1 ) Connect the FTP Receiver to your Computer
2 ) Turn On the FTP Controller, be sure they are "Paired" (see FTP Users Manual) 
3 )  In the FTP GUI Control Panel app (Win7/OSX), if you press the CTRL Key on your OSX/Win7 keyboard while bringing up Options | About TriplePlay Menu, you will see the button that provides the option to reload of the FTP firmware

A firmware update to the FTP Controller /Receiver will NOT perform a Full FTP Hardware Reset - see above for the reset procedure.

Also realize the FTP GUI Control Application on OSX/Win7 will report "Not Connected" if you omit setting the "Audio Input" hardware settings in the  FTP GUI Control Application.

The FTP Update procedure goes like this

1) Launch the FTP Control Panel App on your Win/OSX machine while connected to internet. If a new version of the FTP Control Panel App is available, you should see a pop up message reporting the newer version is available. This gets downloaded by your default Internet Browser.

2) After the update is downloaded completely, Close the running FTP Control Panel App, and launch the installer for the latest FTP Control Panel App.

3) After the latest FTP Control Panel App is installed, and FTP USB Receiver is connected and FTP Controller is enabled and connected and confirmed linked and working, and you are connected to the internet, - from the FTP Control Panel App, Click the "Options" pull down window  and then click "Check for Update" - and any firmware updates that are available for the FTP Controller or FTP Receiver will be downloaded and follow any additional instructions to perform the firmware updates.
