3.2 - AUTO-CONFIGURATION
The Auto-
Configuration feature allows a brand new ‘out of the box’ terminal to
be sent a specific firmware and/or configuration file without any human
intervention. There are also options to specify various terminal specific
parameters, for example an IP address and terminal name etc.
Note
: the auto-configuration mechanism requires AxRM software (available free
For more information on AxRM’s action in the auto-configuration process, see
the manual "Axel Remote Management ".
The auto-configuration process is automatically initiated when power is applied
to a brand new terminal or if the terminal is reset to factory defaults. This
process may be aborted by pressing any key.
Note
: the auto-configuration may also be started at each terminal boot time.
The stages are:
- Checking the network (link),
- DHCP request sent to obtain an IP address and other parameters
(optional),
- Terminal contacts the AxRM server,
- Firmware file sent (if required), followed by a reboot,
- Configuration file sent, followed by a reboot.
