Access the network interfaces settings through CONFIGURATION and System.

This page gives you the possibility to perform multiple actions to your system:

System upgrade
System backup
System restore
System date and time

Note

System upgrade, backup and restore cannot be performed while being in other state than Ready.

System upgrade

Before upgrading the system, it is strongly recommended to create a system backup.

Periodic upgrades will be available. System upgrade allows you to obtain the latest EYE+ functionalities. The file format of the new version provided by Asyril is a .upgrade. The file can be downloaded from EYE+ Studio Release.

Click on START SYSTEM UPGRADE to access the upgrade wizard and follow the instructions.

Once the upgrade has stared, you will have to provide this new version to your system and wait for the end of upgrade process and system reboot. When the system enters the upgrading state, the status led blinks faster (5Hz) and then when the system reboots during the upgrade, the led will be off.

The upgrade takes less than 15 minutes to complete. Step 3 can take around 7 minutes and rebooting could take around 5 minutes depending on your system configuration.

Important

We advise you to perform a System backup before upgrading your system. Asyril will not be responsible for any loss of data if a backup was not properly performed before the upgrade.

Warning

To ensure that your recipes are compatible with the new upgrade, please refer to the release notes. If you have any questions, please contact the support team.

System backup

You can use this interface to create a system backup. The backup saves all your recipes and configurations:

Note

Recipe identifiers do not change when backup is made.

This backup is saved in a .eyeplus.backup file.

To create a backup you must plug an USB storage device into one of the two USB ports and click on refresh to detect the drive.

Next, select the USB device and click on START BACKUP. This may take some time to complete.

Note

We advise you to back up your system frequently.

System restore

From here you can restore your system from a backup file.

To perform a restore, insert a USB drive containing a backup (file .eyeplus.backup) an click on SELECT BACKUP FILE to select the right backup file.

Then, confirm the selection and wait for the restore to complete.

Warning

It is not possible to retrieve recipes and configurations that were stored in your EYE+ before the restore. They will be completely erased by the restore.

System date and time

EYE+ Controller date and time are set in our facility before shipping the controller in Central European Time (CET). Depending on your timezone, you may like to have different settings. You can change these here.

../../_images/system_date_time.png — Fig. 163 System date and time

The standard way is to synchronize EYE+ Controller timezone, date and time with your browser. This can be done by using SYNC SYSTEM DATE AND TIME WITH BROWSER.

Note

If the synchronization is not working for you (different settings desired), you can switch to manual mode and specify the timezone, date and time yourself.
