8.3 Audio, Streaming, GPIO, and System
The options for these pages behave the same as their front panel equivalents. Please see Chapters 5 and 6 for a full
discussion of these options.
The Codec page has some enhancements over the front panel menu. Each codec is shown side by side with all
available bit rate changes shown. You can also see in real time how changing the encoding mode between mono and
stereo affects the bit rate.
8.4 Network
This menu allows you to enter all of the network settings for your device. This can be useful (once you have entered
the IP address in the front panel user interface of the unit), as many of the parameters are easier to enter using a
keyboard than through the numeric keypad on the front panel. Keep in mind that if you change the IP address of
your unit through the web page, you will need to reconnect to the device using the new IP address!
For help in troubleshooting your network configuration, there is a form at the bottom of the page labeled “Ping” – if
you enter an IP address into this field and click the Ping button, the Z/IP ONE will send ten ICMP ping requests to
the address you entered, and tell you how many responses were received.
In addition to the network interfaces, the ZIP Server, and SIP server settings are configured here. All of these
settings are used and configured in the same way as they are on the front panel. For more information, see Section
6.1, Network.
8.5 Software Management
This menu allows you to update the software contained in the Z/IP ONE, to back up and restore its settings, and to
enter an aptX license key.
The Z/IP ONE stores two ‘banks’ of software. Using this, you may, for example, test a new version of software while
retaining the qualified version. You may choose which bank of software is current by selecting the appropriate bank
and pressing the Reboot button.
You may only load software into the secondary bank. After you load the new software, you can continue running
out of the primary bank, or reboot into the secondary to try the new software. When satisfied, you may then
‘commit’ that version to move it to the primary bank. Alternately, you may reboot back into the previous software,
still stored in the primary bank.
To upgrade your Z/IP ONE, download the update package file from the Telos support web site at http://www.
telos-systems.com/codecs/zip-one/. Do not extract this archive. Simply save it to a folder on your computer. Use
the Choose File button on the Software Management web page to locate the package and select it. Click the Upload
button to load the new software into the second bank.
Below the Software Update box is a section for configuration management and backup. The Backup Settings
button will collect all the Z/IP ONE’s current settings into a file and download that to your computer via your web
browser. To restore these settings, choose which categories you would like to restore, find the settings backup file
using the Choose File button, and then load them into the Z/IP ONE by clicking Restore Settings.
