Time Settings
It's important that the RetailPlayer device operates running the correct date and time. This is because the validation of HTTPS certificates used to
establish a secure connection with the Portal requires the certificate to be valid for a time window. The devices uses its system time to present
the certificate to the Portal, if this time is not within the time window expected the device fails in establishing the connection with the Portal.
The RetailPlayer devices use an NTP daemon to set their system time. The NTP protocol is used on the standard port 123. The time set by NTP
is in UTC.
On the web interface, the time settings allow the user to change the default NTP pools used by the device. This is because in some situations,
customers might be using their internal NTP servers, or they simply prefer to use others. The fields accept either a domain name (which requires
a valid connection to the DNS to be able to associate an IP Address to the DN) or an IP Address.
It is possible to check the system time in the Status page of the device, or from the Portal status page.
NTP is used to set the time only at device boot, when the connection with the Portal is established, the time is set by the Portal, where it is also
possible to choose the Time Zone where the device is installed to set the time accordingly.
Security Settings
This area is dedicated to secure the login to the RetailPlayer web user interface device and to enable or disable the possibility to run critical
operations: reboot, reset to factory defaults and update
Reboot Function
Enable or disable the reboot function of the device from the web UI
Reset Factory Defaults
Enable or disable the possibility to reset the device to factory default from the web UI
Update Function
Enable or disable the possibility to update the device from the web UI
Web UI Password
Set the password to access the web interface of the RetailPlayer device. If a password is already set another field is displayed:
OLD PASSWORD, which is required to change the password again
By default the device web interface is protected by the password printed on the backside of the device itself. It is also possible
to avoid access to the web interface by disabling the webconfig option from the Portal settings, thus disabling the device web
browser.
default username: admin
Additional Certificates*
Allows the possibility to upload custom .crt certificates to the device. Useful when the device is used in private enterprise
networks where a private CA is in place to validate secure connections between devices.
