4.9.2009 YSOFT SAFEQ TERMINAL ULTRALIGHT  ADMINISTRATORS GUIDE V1.5 [EN] 6/19 2 OVERVIEW 2.1 SYSTEM OVERVIEW The purpose of Terminal UltraLight is to provide user interface when interacting with printer and copier. The key function of the terminal is to handle user authentication and authorization to the device and the user inter-face for job queue management. Picture 3 - System Overview Only selected card readers are supported by Terminal UltraLight. The Terminal UltraLight Print & Copy version is displayed on the Picture 4. The Ter-minal UltraLight Print Only edition is identical to the YS Terminal UltraLight Print & Copy edition, but it is not equipped with a copy button.
4.9.2009 YSOFT SAFEQ TERMINAL ULTRALIGHT  ADMINISTRATORS GUIDE V1.5 [EN] 7/19 Picture 4 - Terminal UltraLight (Print & Copy version) The Terminal UltraLight is equipped with a 2-ports network switch and so it is not necessary to provide another Ethernet socket for connection - the copier or printer can be connected via the terminal. It features a micro-computer, flash ROM, network interface and a card reader. Terminal is powered by external power supply that is also included in installation package. The emergency button is used for reset the terminal into default settings. 2.2 CAPACITIVE KEYBOARD Capacitive touch keyboard utilized in the Terminal UltraLight is the latest technology providing better reliability and endurance than standard micro switch or membrane keyboards. The keyboard senses capacitance change on electrodes below the keyboard label. The bigger capacitance change the better the keyboard recognizes the touch. It is not important how strong user presses the button it is important to touch larger area. Each key press is signalized by a short beep (if beeps are enabled and use of given key is applicable at the moment). For reasons above some requirements need to be met for proper operation:  Use fingerpads instead of fingertips. Fingerpads cover larger area and are much better detected than fingertips.  Using of force is irrelevant, it is absolutely enough to gently place the finger on the keyboard.  The keyboard will not work when touched by non-conductive materials or materials with very small capacitance. Such materials include nails, plastic, styluses, pens, screwdrivers etc.  The keyboard will not work when wearing gloves. Some exceptions to this may however apply to latex gloves used in medicine or food industry.
4.9.2009 YSOFT SAFEQ TERMINAL ULTRALIGHT  ADMINISTRATORS GUIDE V1.5 [EN] 8/19  The keyboard requires calibration for proper operation. The calibration is done each time the Ter-minal UltraLight is started. It is therefore absolutely necessary not to touch the keyboard during terminal startup otherwise the keyboard may not work properly.  It may happen that the keyboard will become less or much more sensitive to touches after a long pe-riod of operating time or when electrostatic or electromagnetic properties in the surrounding area change. When this problem occurs it is necessary to reboot or power off/power on the terminal so it would automatically calibrate the keyboard to new environment values. 2.3 TERMINAL ULTRALIGHT SPECIFICATION Parameter Value Control Capacitive keyboard Identification Using a card reader or PIN or any combination Network 2-port 10/100 Mbit switch (auto MDI/MDIX) Processor Freescale Coldfire v2 Memory 64kB RAM, 512kB Flash Terminal el. power supply input 12V DC Maximum current input 1.0A Working temperature +535 Storage temperature  Working air humidity 20% to 85% without condensation Storage air humidity 8% to 85% without condensation Resistance to magnetic field no added resistance
4.9.2009 YSOFT SAFEQ TERMINAL ULTRALIGHT  ADMINISTRATORS GUIDE V1.5 [EN] 9/19 3 TERMINAL INSTALLATION AND CONFIGURATION To install the Terminal UltraLight, please following four steps in the order mentioned: - connect the ethernet cables (Chapter 3.1), - use the mounting kit to fix the terminal on a suitable place - mostly on the side of MFD (Chapter 3.2), - adjust the Terminal UltraLight settings (chapter 3.3) - and activate an external copying control interface of copier/MFD device (only for Terminal UltraLight  Print & Copy edition). 3.1 CONNECTING CABLES Terminal UltraLight requires TCP/IP connection to the YSoft SafeQ server. Terminal has own IP and MAC ad-dress. Picture 5 - Interface of Terminal UltraLight – Print & Copy
4.9.2009 YSOFT SAFEQ TERMINAL ULTRALIGHT  ADMINISTRATORS GUIDE V1.5 [EN] 10/19 Picture 6 - Interface of Terminal UltraLight – Print Only WARNING Use the original power supply received with the Terminal UltraLight only! Another power supply may damage the terminal. Such damage would not be covered by the warranty.  SAFETY NOTICE The Terminal UltraLight is not equipped with any power switch. Therefore the power socket MUST be on visible and available place during the time the Terminal is on. 3.2 TERMINAL MOUNTING The exact use of installation kits (received with the terminal) depends on the specific set and model of your device/MFD. Mounting kit may be fixed to the terminal by unscrewing one of the screws in the back, fixing the metal piece(s) and replacing the screw(s). In some cases, a dual-sided adhesive tape should be used to prevent the terminal from wobbling. 3.3 TERMINAL CONFIGURATION There is special tool for configuration of Terminal UltraLight  SafeQ Terminal Configuration utils  see Picture 7.
4.9.2009 YSOFT SAFEQ TERMINAL ULTRALIGHT  ADMINISTRATORS GUIDE V1.5 [EN] 11/19 Picture 7 - SafeQ Terminal Configuration util When you start this tool and press on Scan button, the tool discovers all the terminals in the same network (independently on the network settings), see Picture 8. You can change settings for the particular terminal in the list and using Save button the configuration is applied. Upon successful configuration change the terminal will be rebooted. Picture 8 - Terminal UltraLight configuration There is a default network configuration used for Terminal UltraLight:  DHCP=0  IP=192.168.0.100  NETMASK=255.255.255.0  GATEWAY=192.168.0.254  DNS=192.168.0.254  SERVERIP=192.168.0.254:4096
4.9.2009 YSOFT SAFEQ TERMINAL ULTRALIGHT  ADMINISTRATORS GUIDE V1.5 [EN] 12/19 Emergency button is the way how to reset the terminal into default settings if anything goes wrong with the configuration. Also it is possible to do some other actions such as force firmware update. The correct procedure of using the emergency button is the following:  Unplug the terminal power cable  Use a paper clip or a tiny screwdriver to push the emergency button. Hold the button pressed.  Plug the terminal power back.  The terminal now starts with short series of beeps with a longer pause between them. The action is se-lected by releasing the button in the pause. Once the beep count reaches selectable maximum it starts over again from 1. To cancel any selection unplug the power cable and release the button.  1 beep - do a set default configuration  2 beeps - do the firmware emergency update  3 beeps - do the normal firmware update  4 beeps - do the emergency reload - reset configuration to default and start emergency update  5 beeps - set network configuration to use DHCP server  After the action is selected it is processed and the terminal is rebooted after that It is possible to enter emergency button menu by holding the button for more than 5 seconds when Terminal UltraLight firmware has booted and the terminal is in default "Place card" state.
4.9.2009 YSOFT SAFEQ TERMINAL ULTRALIGHT  ADMINISTRATORS GUIDE V1.5 [EN] 13/19 4 TERMINAL FIRMWARE 4.1 SERVICE FIRMWARE Service firmware is the most important part of the terminal firmware. Right after power-up it will check the emergency button if any action is required. Then it will check the normal firmware for integrity. If the normal firmware is not valid then the emergency firmware will connect to server in emergency mode and download the firmware. If the normal firmware integrity is ok, then it is started. 4.2 TERMINAL FIRMWARE Terminal firmware is the main part of the firmware. It initializes network, autodetects readers and sends the card number to the server when card is placed. By default the firmware starts UDP locator server which will help detecting available terminals on the local network. Also the TCP configuration server is started. 4.3 FIRMWARE UPDATE The following line must be added to conf/modules/safeQ.fwupdate.conf file on the SafeQ server for the emergency update of Terminal UltraLight: update-fw-ulemergency = update_file_with_ultralight_firmware Example (it is similar to Terminal Professional): update-fw-0.7.0ul = ultralight-0.8.fw
