1 General The Mini Updater has an direct connection to the TS1000 SMARTair database. This means that if the connection is lost, the mini updater will no longer function until the connection is established again. As the Mini Updater cannot open a door, no configuration is necessary in the TS1000 software and no special license is needed.
There are two ways we can configure the TCP/IP – RS232 adaptor. 2.2 Configuring the TCP/IP – RS232 Adaptor via web browser Open your web browser and type http://192.168.2.1 and click enter. The User Log-in screen appears. Default ID: admin Default Password: system The setup screen will then appear.
Now we will adapt the default IP address to the new IP address given to you by the IT service of the client. We will go back to the main screen, we must click on Administrator settings to do this. In the main screen we will type in the new IP address, subnet Mask and gateway and click the Update button.

The program will scan the network and will find the TCP/IP – RS232 adaptor. After the scan, the TCP/IP – RS232 adaptor will be listed in the VCOM program. We can now Configure the TCP/IP – RS232 adaptor by selecting the TCP/IP – RS232 adaptor and by clicking on the Configure Button.

Scroll completely down and click OK. The TCP/IP – RS232 adaptor is now setup correctly in the network. Now we must setup the virtual comport via the VCOM program. See point 2.3.2 2.3.2 Now we can setup the virtual comport for the mini updater. We click on COM Mapping and then we click on the ADD button.

In the VCOM program we will now see the COM Port in the COMM Mapping menu. The TCP/IP – RS232 adaptor is now setup completely. Now we can proceed installing the Mini Updater software and the link to the TS1000 database. 12/04/2016 - 9 - Concept...
4 Setting up the Mini Updater software The Mini Updater uses an small software called UpdaterBox. This software can be downloaded from the Tesa website and must be exactly the same version as the TS1000 version! Unzip this software to an folder inside the default TS1000 folder and give the folder an clear and unique Name. For ex.

You can now start the UpdateBox1.exe file If everything is configured correctly, the UpdaterBox is running and displaying the correct Name of the Updater. 12/04/2016 - 11 - Concept...
5 Setting up Windows to start up the UpdaterBox after boot. The VCOM software and the UpdaterBox software must be running at all times. If not, the Mini Updater will not work! The VCOM software is by default configured to startup when Windows starts. No further action must be taken for the VCOM program.
6 Good to know The Mini Updater reader must be fast flashing red. This means that the Mini Updater is operational and connected to the database. If the Mini Updater is slowly flashing red, the “Silent” option in the TCP/IP – RS232 configuration is still selected. Please uncheck this option.
7.3 Reset everything to default including the IP address This can only be done by an hardware reset. Therefore we need to disconnect the TCP/IP – RS232 adaptor and open the adaptor by loosening the 2 screws on each side of the adaptor.
