PIXORD NC has a built-in web server, so the web contents
are contained in Flash Memory, the same as software parts,
allowed to erase and re-written. It provides an easy way to
update the web pages --- just simply load and issue command
from network (FTP and Telnet).
Caution : The update of content page is very sensitive to system operation; therefore, incorrect operation may cause system fail to response to any request. The following operations provided here are only for experienced system integrator. Remember that always consult to your distributor or dealer in advance to update the content.
The following procedures are to update the web page:
1) Clean up system
Before updating the pages, make the PIXORD NC back to factory
default stage --- click ¡§Load Default¡¨ button , click ¡§Save
Changes¡¨ button , and then click ¡§Reboot System¡¨ button in
configuration page. Keep the PIXORD NC in an idle state, which
stops all video requests from other station.
2) Download complete web pages
For backup purpose, we should download the complete built-in contents before updating. The pages layout is described as below:
3.0.0/WWW: Main video pages including static HTML pages and JAVA applets.
3.0.0/WWW/images: All graphical files.
3.0.0/WWW/lang1: All HTML pages for user defined language 1.
3.0.0/WWW/lang2: All HTML pages for user defined language 2.
3.0.0/Sys: Video bitmap font file (Time Stamp and Text Bitmap)
3.0.0/public: Internal message files.
Note : When you login the system, the default root directory is 3.0.0/. Do not change any file in 3.0.0/Sys, and 3.0.0/public, because these files are only used internally.
For convenience, some FTP utilities (e.g. CuteFTP, WSFTP) may be useful to download the complete pages.
3) Upload custom web pages
You can use FTP utilities to upload the updated/added contents to their original directory. For example, if you wish to replace the PIXORD banner logo (logo.jpg) with your custom made image. First, prepare your own image, and then upload to 3.0.0/WWW/images.
Note : Any file upload to PIXORD NC should
be set to ¡§binary¡¨ mode in FTP utility; otherwise, the file
may be corrupted in PIXORD NC.
4) Verify updated contents
After uploading the custom pages, open browser to verify the correctness of contents. If not correct, modify the pages and return to previous step to upload again.
5) Save the changes to flash
Telnet into the PIXORD NC, and run the command ¡§Up ¡Vw¡¨ to
write the complete web pages into the flash. The detailed
procedures are list as below,
Open DOS window
Enter ¡§telnet <IP Address of PIXORD NC>¡¨
Enter ¡§root¡¨ and ¡§pass¡¨ as username and password
Enter ¡§Up ¡Vw¡¨ to start the web content update program. The
command is case sensitive. Don't enter the wrong case or you'll
get the command not find error message. After processing about
30 seconds, the PIXORD NC will restart automatically and complete
the web content updating. Now you can open the browser to
see the new web content.
Note : The limitation of overall size of content pages is around 700K Bytes. Any file added/updated plus original downloaded file (~550K Bytes) should not exceed this size; otherwise, some files will be truncated or corrupted. If the corruption of any page happens, you will have to reload the original binary (see 0 Appendix B - Upgrade the ) in order to recover the corruption.
For example, the PIXORD NC IP address is 192.168.0.200,
then
C:\temp> telnet 192.168.0.200
C:\temp>
Telnet session <------------Open Telnet session
Login: root
Password: <------------Enter ¡§ pass ¡¨ as default
Welcome to VidSvr on Telnet ...
IVS> Up ¡Vw
Upgrade WWW Pages... <------------Frozen here, close and open browser
After 30 seconds to verify the changes.
