ASSEMBLING THE LEARNING CENTER

1.

Let’s start by adjusting the handle/kickstand in the back.

a.

After you remove the Learning Center from the box, place it on a stable surface, 
upside down, with the top edge of the unit and the acrylic stand sitting on the 
surface. 

Do not

 place the Learning Center with the touchscreen laying flat on 

the surface. You may damage the touchscreen.

b.

With the back of the unit facing you, locate the pin on one side of the handle, 
near the acrylic surface. Hook your finger into the ring and pull out the pin.

c.

Adjust the handle to align the holes to the desired position, then insert the pin.

Position 1: Orients the Learning Center so that it’s easier to see while sitting 
at your desk.

Position 2: Orients the Learning Center so that it’s easier for an audience to see it.

2.

Grab the Learning Center with both hands and turn it right-side up, so that the bottom edge of the acrylic stand and the kickstand sit on the 
surface.

3.

Connect an Ethernet cable and the temperature probe.

a.

Lift the touchscreen. Connect an 
Ethernet cable (that’s connected 
to your network) to the ETH0 
network interface, which is the 
top interface of the two 
interfaces located on the 
underside of the 

groov

 EPIC 

processor.

b.

Connect the temperature probe 
to the temperature probe 
connector on the acrylic stand.

4.

Turn the Learning Center around so you can see the back.

a.

Connect the DC connector end of the power cord to the DC socket.

b.

Connect the power cord to the adapter.

c.

Connect the power adapter to the outlet of 110 to 240 VAC power.

5.

You can illuminate the Learning Center with three different 
light settings:

To provide a steady blue illumination, set the switch to the 
top position.

To turn off the light, set the switch to the middle position.

To be able to program the illumination, set the switch to 
the bottom position.

6.

Turn the Learning Center around so you can see the front. Turn 
on the processor and close the touchscreen.

INITIALIZING THE LEARNING CENTER

1.

When the touchscreen displays the Welcome! screen, make a note of the value in the Hostname or Eth0 IP Address box.

2.

Open a web browser on your computer and type in the following as the URL, entering the Hostname (or Eth0 IP address) from the previous step 
in place of <hostname>:   

https://<hostname>

For example:

 https://opto-03-fa-bf 

or

 

 https://xxx.xxx.x.xxx

, where 

xxx.xxx.x.xxx

 is the IP address shown in the 

Eth0 IP Address field.

3.

If your browser displays a warning about security, you can accept the warning and proceed to connecting to the processor.

4.

Click Let’s get started!

5.

In the Create an Account screen, type in the username and password that follows strong security recommendations. This username and 
password is the first administrator level user for your Learning Center. 

Remember it!

 

groov

 EPIC does not provide a way to recover a lost 

password or username. Click Create Account.

6.

We recommend that you check that the version of 

groov

 EPIC processor firmware running on the Learning Center is the latest version. Click 

Configure Device > Info and Help > About.

7.

Write down the Restore Version: ____________________________________

8.

Open the black envelope and pull out the GRV-EPIC-PR1 Activation Certificate. Follow the instructions on the certificate to activate your 

groov

 

EPIC processor. When you reach the profile page for your 

groov

 EPIC processor, under the Latest Releases section, note the version number for the 

groov

 EPIC Field Update. Compare this version number with the Restore Version number you noted in 

step 7

 above:

If the version number for the 

groov

 EPIC Field Update is the same as or lower than the Restore Version number, then you have the latest 

firmware installed on your processor! You can skip the rest of this step.

If the version number for the 

groov

 EPIC Field Update is higher than the Restore Version number, you’ll need to download and install the 

newer version of the firmware that’s on the webiste. Follow the instructions in “Updating Firmware on a 

groov

 EPIC Unit” in the 

groov

 EPIC 

User’s Guide (form 2267)

. You can skip step 5 (creating a backup of your unit) and step 6 (deactivating the Ignition Edge license).

Your 

groov

 EPIC Learning Center is now up and running!
