Micro Flash and Micro Parameter Configuration

This dialog box displays only if the micro is online. There are three options:

•View/Edit Parameter Info

Micro Parameter – Direct/Dialup: This option is available for selection of a single micro. When selected, the Micro Parameter Configuration screen displays and the configuration for the micro is retrieved, allowing you to edit or change an existing setup such as micro address, IP address change, or phone number changes. Once saved, the micro will reset and the new changes take effect.

If you change parameter block data through Secure Perfect, any Universal Badge Format (UBF) data will be erased.

For example: If a M/5-PXN was originally configured as a direct serial micro during installation but will now be a network micro, select the updated micro type and complete the network information. Click OK. The micro will accept the changes, reset, then change the host information for this micro.

The Micro Parameter – Direct/Dialup tab allows you to change the connection type of the micro and its Address, Idle Time, and DI res tolerance.

The Micro Parameter – Networking tab will display only if the system identified your micro as a network micro and allows you to change the network parameters for the micro.

Micro Parameter – Badge Format: This tab opens to display the custom badge formats that are currently in the micro. If there are no custom formats, the fields are empty. If a format in the database does not match what is available in the micro, the window list displays a message ‘Unrecognized Format.’ To change the badge format:

Magnetic stripe: Select the type of magnetic stripe format from the drop-down list.

Wiegand: Click Assign formats to display a list of available Wiegand badge formats from which to choose and assign to this micro.

Clear formats in micro: Click to clear all custom badge formats from the micro. Badges associated with those formats will no longer work.

If you change the badge format, any format that existed in the micro previously is replaced.

•Start Flashing Micro(s)

This option will start flashing the selected micro(s) with the latest firmware. A dialog box will display asking you to verify your request. The flashing process takes approximately two to three minutes; it varies with amount of data that needs to be transmitted to the micro.

•View/Edit Flash Files

Use this option ONLY when it is necessary to selectively flash an older version of firmware on a micro. The Secure Perfect system automatically selects the latest version by default. The flashing process takes approximately two to three minutes; it varies with amount of data that needs to be transmitted to the micro. Click OK to begin the flash. When flashing is complete, the micro resets and requests a database.

Micro/5 – PX and Micro/PX – 2000: The form opens with the latest .efl firmware file displayed. Click the drop-down list to display and select an older firmware file.

Micro/5 – PXN and Micro/PXN – 2000: The form opens with the latest .efl network firmware file displayed. Click the drop-down list to display and select an older network firmware file. MicroPXNPlus and MicroPXNPlus2000: The form opens with the latest .efl network firmware file displayed. Click the drop-down list to display and select an older network firmware file.

Browse: Click to navigate to another media source or directory where firmware files reside.

Override Block Checking: Ignore this checkbox. This selection is for Customer Support use only.
