Actions
The ACTIONS drop down menu button is the main tool for all possible actions (tasks) with devices. Successful action results in a queued job.
This chapter provides an explanation of what each dropdown menu item does and how to use it.
FIELD NAME | ACTION | DESCRIPTION |
---|---|---|
Import Device Description |
Upload .csv file | Select First Field |
You can import a list of device Descriptions, that are mapped to IMEIs or S/Ns. Selecting First Field determines before mentioned mapping. |
Assign Devices |
Devices .csv list | Select Identifier | Company name | Group (optional) |
You can assign devices to your Child companies, re-assign between different Child companies, or bring devices to your own company with Assign Devices function. Select Identifier has to be chosen depending on whether you shall use IMEIs or S/Ns to make this action. |
Assign to company |
Company Name |
This function assigns devices that were selected from Device list one-by-one or by using Filter. Select Company Name that these devices should be assigned to. |
Assign to group |
Group Name |
This function assigns devices that were selected from Device list one-by-one or by using Filter. Select Group Name that these devices should be assigned to. |
Assign firmware |
Firmware Name |
Assign a firmware upgrade job to a single or many devices. The next time FM device connects to FOTA WEB – it shall start firmware upgrade procedure. Firmware selection dropdown menu is populated by assigning Firmware via Files menu. |
Assign configuration |
Configuration name |
Assign a configuration upgrade job to a single or many devices. The next time FM device connects to FOTA WEB – it shall start configuration upgrade procedure. Configuration selection dropdown menu is populated by assigning Firmware via Files menu. |
Download from device |
Configuration file | Black box file | Continuous log files |
This function assigns a Download job to FMB device. Next time it connects to FOTA WEB – selected files shall be downloaded. NOTE: Continuous log lets you select number of files to be downloaded. Newest log files, that are stored in device’s memory, are taken first. |
Cancel actions |
- | Cancels all pending jobs. |
View Tasks
This menu provides an opportunity to observe the status of a TASK.
Tasks are successfully queued job, meaning that there was no error parsing user’s request to make an ACTION.
If there are multiple jobs assigned for a single device – FOTA WEB shall execute them one by one. Each time a job is completed FM shall reconnect to FOTA WEB immediately and if another job is awaiting – attempt to complete it.
The order of job execution is as follows:
1. Blackbox log
2. Continuous log
3. Firmware upgrade
4. Configuration download
5. Configuration upgrade
Meaning, that if you set all 5 jobs – the device will first upload BlackBox log, then continuous log and only on 3rd reconnect to FOTA WEB the firmware shall be upgraded.
Relevant possible error’s that you may encounter after creating a task
TASK | ERROR | DESCRIPTION |
---|---|---|
Config assignment |
Configuration file mismatch device's platform. |
Configuration file is not applicable to this type of device model. Select config file that works on this particular device, e.g. FMB64 config for FMB64 device model. |
Firmware |
Firmware file does not exist or information about firmware is missing. Please re-upload firmware file. |
Re-upload the firmware and try again. Should error remain – contact us (your Sales representative) for assistance. |
In an unlikely event, any other type of error would appear – it should be reported back to us.
Filter
Filter is designed to both: (1) filter out a list of devices based on combinations of parameters, (2) and to make bulk ACTIONS.
You can select/filter devices by:
- Company
- Group
- Device Model
- Firmware version
- Job status
Under Active Filters section you shall see current filters that have been selected.
Each of the Active Filters can be removed individually by clicking on a particular filter, or they all can be removed together by clicking Reset all.
Active Filters shall maintain current configuration until manually Reset, meaning that navigating through various FOTA WEB menu’s Active Filters shall remain as last configured.
Bulk assignment
Once Active Filters section has any number of parameters, the ACTIONS dropdown button automatically displays how many devices have been filtered. It allows to assign jobs to all selected devices.
In the example below, you can see 119590 devices being filtered.
Clicking on ACTIONS and then selecting a task, say Firmware upgrade, would assign a Firmware upgrade job to 119590 devices.
