Upgrading Firmware
The TemPageR 3E rmware is upgraded using the AVTECH Device Discovery Utility and TemPageR 3E
Firmware Update le. The latest version of these les can be obtained from the ‘Downloads’ section of the
AVTECH.com website. If the AVTECH Device Discovery Utility is already installed on the computer being
used for the upgrade, check for an updated version before downloading the TemPageR 3E Firmware Update le.
NOTE: When saving the TemPageR 3E Firmware Update le to the computer, it may be saved with either a ‘.zip’ or ‘.upd’ le
extension. If the extension is ‘.zip’, DO NOT EXTRACT the TemPageR 3E Firmware Update le.
After obtaining the most current version of the AVTECH Device Discovery Utility and the TemPageR
3E Firmware Update le, be sure to install the AVTECH Device Discovery Utility on the system that
will be used to upgrade the TemPageR 3E rmware (if it is not already installed).
IMPORTANT NOTE: Be sure that there are NO WEB BROWSERS ACCESSING the TemPageR 3E unit from anywhere on
your network before uploading the rmware as this could cause the rmware update to be incomplete or become corrupted.
When completed, open the AVTECH Device Discovery Utility and click the ‘Search’ button. When
the TemPageR 3E unit is located, select it and click the ‘Upgrade’ button. If the unit can not be located
although is accessible via a web browser, skip to the ‘Unit Accessible Although Not Discoverable’
section below. Navigate to the location where the TemPageR 3E Firmware Update le was saved, select
it and click the ‘Upload’ button. A dialog will then load asking for conrmation of the rmware upload.
Click ‘Ok’ to upload the TemPageR 3E Firmware Update le to the TemPageR 3E unit.
Reset Factory Default Settings
There are two primary methods for returning TemPageR to the factory default settings. This can be
useful if the unit is assigned invalid network settings and is no longer accessible or if the unit will
be moved to a new location and will be recongured. If the unit is accessible on the network and the
‘Settings’ screen can be accessed, clicking the ‘Reset Defaults’ button on the left menu of the ‘Settings’
screen will restore the factory default settings to the device. If the unit is not accessible on the network,
the reset button on the back of the unit can be used to reset the factory default settings. With the unit
connected to the network and powered on, press and hold the reset button approximately 5-10 seconds
until the left LED over the network jack turns off then on again. Once the settings have been reset to
defaults, the unit will automatically reboot and attempt to obtain a new DHCP IP address.
Unit Accessible Although Not Discoverable
In the event that the network blocks UDP broadcast packets on port 30718, the AVTECH Device
Discovery Utility will not be able to locate the TemPageR 3E unit even though it is accessible via a web
browser. As long as the TemPageR 3E unit can be accessed via a web browser, the AVTECH Device
Discovery Utility should still be able to update the rmware on it. To do so, click the ‘Upgrade’ button in
the AVTECH Device Discovery Utility without anything selected. Enter the IP address of the TemPageR
