Initial Operation
i
This chapter contains information on initial operation. Follow our procedure to ensure reliable operation.
On devices with emergency power supply, open the housing and connect the accumulator cable.
Carry out initial operation with all data cables and operative slave terminals connected.
Procedure
We recommend proceeding as follows:
1.
Switch on the power supply.
2.
Execute cold boot.
3.
Establish a TELNET or SSH connection.
4.
Configure the network connections.
5.
Set the parameters of the serial interfaces, if necessary modify the booking memory

, too.
6.
Check the connections to the slave terminals.
7.
Change the default password.
8.
Accept the parameterized data with Reset.
9.
Switch on the AKKU switch on devices with emergency power supply.
10. Set the parameters of the slave terminals in the T&A/ access control program and load the required data.
11. Check the functions of the slave terminals.
You will find further information on steps 1 to 9 in the following.
Point 1: Switch On Power Supply
After the operating voltage is switched on, the terminal controller:
1.
boots the Linux operating system.
2.
launches the application.
3.
establishes an online connection to the slave terminals.
It can take up to 30 seconds for the startup procedure to finish and indicate the connections to the slave terminals.
The startup procedure is finished when the RUN LED lights up.
Point 2: Cold Boot
The cold boot deletes saved data

and sets default values.
A cold boot is required:
at the time of initial operation.
when malfunctions occur which cannot be rectified by other means, e.g. a restart.
Performance
To initiate a cold boot you must:
1. set the cold boot switch (Kaltst) to the front panel to the ON position (downward).
2. press the RESET push-button briefly.
3. wait until the RUN LED lights up again (procedure can take up to 30 seconds).
4. set the cold boot switch back to position OFF.
