‘

ethaddr’

is the MAC address of the frame’s network card.

‘

CV_ProductName’

is the frame’s product name – SNMP indicates that the frame

supports optional SNMP control.

‘

CV_HwSerialNumber

is the serial number of the frame entered during

manufacture and will be the front panel serial number. The serial number will be in
the range 1-999999 and is a useful aid for identification or auditing purposes.

‘

CV_Hwissue’

is the version of the frame hardware entered during manufacture.

‘

CV_HwModLevel’

indicates modifications to the frame hardware.

Software Upgrade

Clicking on the ‘Software Upgrade’ link will open a page that enables the frame
software to be upgraded. You may be asked to perform an upgrade by Crystal
Vision who will supply the software and instructions to perform this task.

Typically there are three image files: Indigoxxx.RootFS, Indigoxxx.Apps and
Indigoxxx.Settings. Each of the files is selected in turn and the upgrade
performed on each before re-booting the frame. Do not attempt to do this without
specific instruction from Crystal Vision or its representatives.
