Settings

In this section, you can save all web interface settings (except network settings) by clicking the Backup whole settings button. If necessary, you can choose the downloaded file and restore saved settings. You can also reset the device to the default settings by clicking the corresponding button.

Export/Import data

If necessary, you can export or import data about Apartments, Identifiers and Floors. To export, you must click Download and a ZIP archive with tables will be saved on your computer.

Data import is used to copy the exported information to other devices. To do this, choose ZIP archive and click Confirm.

When importing data, all current data in the Apartments, Identifiers, and Floors tables will be deleted and replaced with new (importing) information without the possibility of restoring.

Import of incorrect data format will cause the device malfunctioning.

Delete data

In this section, you can delete data about one or more categories: Identifiers, Floors, and Logs. To clear data, select category/ies and click Delete. As a result, the data will be irrevocably deleted.

Firmware update server

By default, the BAS-IP server is used for updates. You also can use a custom server (is used in closed intercom networks) for firmware updates. The custom server must meet certain conditions for its correct work: the server must have the version.json file and the file with the necessary firmware.

The version.json file must contain information and structure as in the example:

Device name;
Device model;
Device type;
Firmware version;
Name (doubles device name);
Firmware build date;
Commit hash value;
Description of changes;
Link to the firmware file;

How to configure custom server use for firmware updates

Log in to the device web interface. By default, the username is admin and the password is 123456.
Go to System tab > Firmware update server section.
Enable use of a custom server.
Enter the link to the server (with version.json and firmware files) in the Custom server field.
Submit settings.

Firmware upgrade

At this section, you can update module firmware. There are two ways to do it:

Before each software update, make a backup copy of device settings, so that in case of an update error, you can always restore the previous settings.

automatic: check for software updates and if it is released on BAS-IP or custom server, click Update Firmware. The process will take some time. If there are no updates, information about the current firmware version will be provided;

manual: download the necessary firmware from the webpage, click Choose file and upload the downloaded file. Click Update Firmware and wait for the process to complete;

Reboot

The section contains a button for module soft reset.
