Factory Reset - Kemppi Smart Reader Operating Manual

WELDEYE
Update via USB flash drive (USB stick)
Smart Reader administrator receives the update file (a .xpk suffixed file) from WeldEye support.
The administrator saves the received file on a proper USB flash drive so that the update package
is in the root of the flash drive's file system ( D:\update_package.xpk.)
Administrator logs in to SmartReader's administration section.
Once the user is logged in as an administrator, Smart Reader automatically prompts for an
update. Select to install update. Smart Reader shuts down and starts the update process. Once
ready, Smart Reader informs about successful update.
Note: If Smart Reader reports an error when the USB stick is inserted, it is possible that
the device did not go to administrator mode. To start the administrator mode, press the
small BMS button on the back side of Smart Reader (for example, with a piece of filler
wire) until text appears on screen.
Online update
Smart Reader can be automatically updated through an online update. In this case, Smart
Reader's update package is released in the WeldEye cloud service. Smart Reader automatically
downloads the new firmware version (this happens in the background, without disturbing the
operation). Once the download is complete, there are two options to perform the update:
• Smart Reader administrator logs into the Smart Reader's admin view. Once the user is logged
in as an administrator, Smart Reader prompts automatically to update the device software.
Select to install update, and update operation starts.
• Power off the welding machine for over two minutes, and then power it on. On start-up, Smart
Reader automatically updates the firmware.

6.3 Factory reset

Smart Reader can be reset to the software version that was installed in it in the factory. To reset
the device, press the BMS button under the back cover of the device for 20 seconds. When you
release the button, the reset process starts.
