Figure 25: Expert dialog: Configuration type prompt
Here, you may select whether you want to carry configurati-
on out "Via the network" (using the
Ethernet connecting cable) or "Via USB stick".
"Via the network" means that configuration is carried out
using the Ethernet connecting cable by which the XENTRY
Tab 2 is connected to the XENTRY Connect.
"Via USB stick" means that configuration is carried out
by saving the configuration file to a USB stick, which has
to be inserted into the XENTRY Connect.
If you want to perform the configuration by means of a USB
memory stick, save the file onto the stick by clicking "Via
USB memory stick"; continue to follow the dialog prompts.
Note: The configuration file must be saved on the USB me-
mory stick in the directory VCI_VIEW/config; this directory
is automatically created by XENTRY Control. Please do not
change the name of the file. Otherwise,
the file cannot be read.
Now insert the USB memory stick into the XENTRY Connect.
The XENTRY Connect must be switched on. Then press the
"green check" and "red cross" buttons simultaneously. In
the display your are asked "Start configuration?", confirm
this with the 'green check-mark'. The configuration will be
initiated; the XENTRY Connect LED will flash green.
