Chapter 3: Starting Visara the First Time
Remote Configuration can be bypassed by clicking Cancel on the startup
window or it can be disabled. When Remote Configuration is bypassed
or disabled the Visara will then use internally stored connection
configurations.
Remote Configuration Setup
The Visara is factory configured with Remote Configuration enabled. In
order for this feature to operate correctly a configuration must have been
previously saved to the appropriate server and the server must be
configured to support FTP (a standard file transfer protocol). This setup
is performed by your Network Administrator who will provide you with
an account name for use when starting the Visara. Enter this account
name into the Remote Configuration startup window at boot time and
click the Start button.
The Remote Configuration function can be bypassed by clicking the
Cancel button on the Remote Configuration startup window or by pressing
the Esc key on the keyboard. Remote Configuration can be enabled,
disabled or reconfigured from the Admin page of the Terminal Properties
window as follows:
• From the Visara Main Menu hit the F2 key to access the Terminal
Properties window.
• Select the Admin tab.
• To enable, check the box titled “Update Configuration at power up”.
• If your adminstrator has provided information for configuring a FTP
server, enter that information in the appropriate fields.
• Click on the Apply button to save the settings or the OK button to save
and exit.
For setup information on other Remote Configuration functions, or for
using Remote Configuration without DHCP, see Appendix A.
Automatic Software Update
The Visara has the ability to update the operating system and applications
over the network. This Firmware Update feature can be set to check for
updates automatically at every boot time or this function can be run
manually when desired.
