PoE Touchpanel Setup

PoE Touchpanel Setup

To connect the touchpanel directly (wirelessly) to the control processors on-board access-point, ensure the touch-panels ip address is set to DHCP as it will acquire an address from the access point. The default SSID is cm4-. The default password is the control processors mac address (all lower-case, no colons). Note: If connecting to the onboard access point (by wireless laptop, or wireless tablet), the client device will acquire an address in the 192.168.10.0 subnet from the server (processor). The processor will have a static ip address of 192.168.10.10 on its wireless access point by default.

LOADING USER-INTERFACE PROGRAM: If using the PoE Android Touchpanel, download the Android File Transfer tool and put the .apk in the touchpanels download folder. A connection can be made by Bluetooth, or usb (recommended). Select apkinstaller -> Install, navigate to the download folder and select the .apk you just built.

SET THE BOOT UI APP: On the home screen, navigate to settings -> accessibility -> boot app, select your application (must be installed already for it to show on the list).

LOCK/UNLOCK THE UI APP: To prevent end-users from getting out of the app, press the power button on the back of the touchpanel 3 times within 5 seconds. Test the current state of the app lock/unlock feature by dragging your finger from the bottom of the screen upwards, or from the top downwards. If the app is not locked, you will see the android menus. If the screen is successfully locked no exit or settings menu will appear.

TESTING THE APP LOCK/UNLOCK FEATURE: After setting your application to auto-start, and setting the app lock feature, do a full test by simulating a power loss; remove the POE plug from the back of the unit. Plug the POE back into the unit. Once the touchpanel starts it should immediately load your custom .apk user-interface. There should be no way for the user to exit the application.
