Reconfiguring the ZEP Terminal
To delete the current configuration of a ZEP terminal and force a reconfiguration, navigate to Administration > System > Device Management and change its status to "Restart Configuration." This is useful, for example, if a different WLAN, Ethernet, or ZEP installation is to be used.
When a terminal is in this status, a restart is triggered as soon as any chip is held in front of it. A "Come" or "Go" entry for that chip is NOT triggered. Simultaneously, the terminal's status in ZEP is set to "inactive," ensuring the restart is triggered only once. The next time a chip is held up, the message will indicate that the terminal is inactive. Afterward, you can set the terminal back to "active" (or "active in learning mode" as needed) in ZEP and resume normal operation.
Alternatively, the ZEP terminal can be put into configuration mode by plugging or unplugging the Ethernet cable. In this case, the existing parameters are retained and can be modified if necessary.
Automatic Software Updates
The ZEP terminal automatically checks at regular intervals whether an update has been provided on the ZEP server. If so, the update is downloaded automatically. You can identify this by the updated version number on the ZEP terminal display. Stamping is not possible during an update. Normally, an update takes less than a minute.
If the terminal is used for stamping immediately after an update becomes available, the software update will be executed instantly. The stamping process must be repeated after the update is complet
