M4DDC User Manual
Private FTP
Private FTP points the M4DDC toward a private FTP site, bypassing DaySequerra’s public FTP used
for updates. Switch the ‘Enable Private FTP’ slider ‘ON’ and enter the private FTP credentials in each
field followed by clicking ‘Save’. Enabling this feature will keep the M4DDC from downloading or
checking for updates directly from DaySequerra. By doing this the M4DDC will not know when new
updates are pushed to the public FTP site by DaySequerra. Please notify DaySequerra so future
firmware updates are sent directly to the user in binary form.
Network Settings
Configures all network connections. DHCP is enabled by default. By disabling DHCP a manual IP
Address, IP Subnet, Gateway are able to be set by entering the data in each field followed by ‘Save’.
MAC is read only. After the Network settings are saved the M4DDC will reset itself so the new network
settings are enabled.

Firmware Updates
o
‘
Check for update’
checks DaySequerra’s public update site against the firmware
version that is listed in the ‘ABOUT’ section. If an update is available the option to
download and install will pop-up. Updates are not automatic. If the Firmware is up to
date a message will pop-up displaying the firmware is up to date. Because the updates
are not automatically checked it’s good practice to periodically check for updates by
selecting
‘Check for Update’
.
o
Local update
allows the user to perform a firmware and webserver update from a local
network drive
.
Like using a private FTP, it is necessary to notify DaySequerra for the
latest binary firmware. See figure xx.
o
‘Downgrade Firmware’
enables the user to downgrade back to the last stable release
stored on DaySequerra’s FTP site. A pop-up message asks to continue or cancel.
•
‘
Reset Unit’
performs a soft reboot of the M4DDC unit
.
