How to Add a Software Package

Software packages are used in order to apply specific updates or changes to
terminals without having to update the entire image. Some examples for
software packages would be custom wallpaper images, updating software
clients like VMware View, Citrix, or RDP, potentially providing bug fixes, and
more.

At this time, packages are only currently provided by Acer by request and
customer created packages are not supported. In order to add a software
package to the Echo inventory:

1

Select Add Software Package from above the Software
Packages
inventory table.

2

Enter a name for this package in the Name and Details pane, and
add a description if desired.

3

Select the operating system that the software package is designed
for from the OS dropdown menu.

4

Select the location of the software package you are adding to Echo

a. If the package is saved to you default storage location,

enter the file name in the Software Filename field.

b. If the package is saved elsewhere, select Custom

Location from the dropdown. Then, enter the FTP or
HTTP URL where the software package is stored, as well
as a username and password if they are required to
access that location.

5

Click Add above the Name and Details pane in order to add this
package to the inventory table.
