Avoid Sending Remote Reset 
Messages with M-Card 1.1.10 

Multi-Stream CableCARD™ (M-Card™) software version 1.1.10 does not fully 

support the following types of remote reset commands: 

 

Passthru reset messages (including reboots through the UN-Config window) 

 

bootDhct commands 

 

commands that use the -b parameter to reboot set-tops, such as IIH -b or 

listQPSK -b 

Whenever M-Cards that are running software version 1.1.10 receive one of these 

reset messages, the M-Card may lose synchronization with the host device, causing 

the M-Card to become non-responsive.  When this occurs, the host devices must be 

manually rebooted by cycling the power.  
If necessary, you can still use cmd2000 to reboot a single set-top remotely in a SARA 

environment.  
Important: Certain modes of the signonCount utility will send Passthru reset 

messages if problems are detected. These modes are F Mode (Fix Mode) and 

T Mode, which reboots set-tops that attempt to sign on more than once in 20 

minutes. 
This issue has been corrected in M-Card software versions 1.1.12 and 1.5.1.
