This section describes the XM backup/restore image utility that allows an engineer to:
O make a complete image backup of one machine in order to clone another machine.
O backup/restore a number of sections of the Operating System to and from a USB
drive.
O The names of the files created on the USB drive are fixed.
O When performing a backup files of the same name will be overwritten if they exist.
There will be no warning.
O When doing a restore, the files must be named exactly as described. All files must
be lower case. Each file will also be accompanied by a checksum file.

main XM-kernel (3)


This partition of approx 3MB is the most central component of the XM's operating system
but is dependent on the existence of the Root File System. It is not envisaged that the xm
kernel will be modified on a regular basis and you should only backup and restore this if
instructed.
Backup bu-kernel (4)
The bu-kernel is the backup kernel and is a separate drive partition of around 8MB. This
partition is the location from which the Imaging Utility is run. You would only need to
backup and restore this partition if changes have been made to the utility itself, such as
bug fixes or feature enhancements.

7.3.3 Restore options

The inter-scale networks are configured in a Client/Server arrangement with all scales
sharing the same Ethernet ‘port address’ with the Server being responsible for all Host
data transfers.
Host connected scale networks can be arranged as ‘Multi-Server’ where each scale
operates as an independent Server, each having a direct connection to the Host device.

8.1 Networks Communications

8.1 Networks
A network allows a number of scales to be connected together in an interscale network
and to a back office host. Scale networks can be connected physically in an ethernet
setup or WLAN.
O Inter-scale networks are configured in a client/server setup and each client is
configured with the host name of it’s server. The number of clients that can be
supported on a network will depend on server performance.
O Host connected networks can be configured as multi-server
O Scales on a network can share resources and information (operators, PLUs etc.).

8.1.1 Scale networks


O Ethernet as standard, 10/100 base-T auto switch
O Number of machines - 31 per network
Note: Smaller networks of five to ten machines are recommended to increase network
resilience.

O Networking host I/f - ethernet as standard


O DHCP/DNS or static IP addressing modes
Server/client networks
O One scale is configured as the server and holds the reference database. The back
office host communicates with this scale.
O Other scales in the same network are configured as clients and hold their own copy of
the database.
O Floating vendor is allowed.
O Prices and products can be updated at any of the scales.
Multi-server networks
O Each scale is configured as a server. If there is a back office host it will communicate
with all the scales.
O Each scale holds its own unique product file.
O Floating vendor is not allowed.

C C C

O Each scale is configured as a server and shares the network ID with the other scales
on the network.
O Prices and products can be updated at any scale and replicated across the group.
O Floating vendor is allowed.

8.1.2 Network protocol


XM series scales’ network protocol and speed are as follows:
TCP/IP V4 protocol for both wired and wireless connections.
10/100 base T ethernet connection.

8.1.3 File sharing


Each XM scale will have its own copy of the database.
O Trading is from the local copy.
O Totals and transactions are stored locally.
O During totalisation, the scales are polled by the host/server and totals and transactions
are collected from all the scales in the network.
O If floating vendor is allowed, an open receipt will be copied from the scale to the host/
server collecting totals.

8.2 Network setup Communications

8.2 Network setup


The network settings are configured from within Manager Mode.

8.2.1 Network setup - wired


Scales are connected together using one or several hubs as required. The number and
position of the hubs required is determined by the store layout and the type of hub used.
Two scales can be connected together without the use of a hub. A simple cross cable is
used to connect the two machines together.
Each machine in a network must have a unique IP address. The IP address is used by the
TCP/IP protocol to identify the source and destination of data packets.
The machines are manufactured with unique IP addresses which only need to be
changed if the XM series network is to be integrated with an existing Ethernet network.
Note: Before setting up an in-store network, obtain the appropriate IP addresses from the
store IT administrator. Enter the addresses at the machines before connecting to the
network.

1. In Manager Mode select Comms Setup


2. Select Wired Setup
3. Ensure that DHCP Enable is set to 0. (Touch Edit to go to the editing screen.)
4. Set the IP address to one that is unique to that scale.
The IP address of the machine consists of two parts the network address and the
machine address.
O The network address
Important:The network address must be the same as all the other machines on the same
network.
O The machine address.
The machine address must be different from the other machines on the same
network
O Sub-net mask
The sub-net mask allows you to split a large physical network into smaller logical
networks.
O Gateway
Where XM series machines are linked to a PC through a gateway, the XM series
machine needs to know the gateway address in order to communicate with it.
DHCP networks
1. In Manager Mode select Comms Setup
2. Select Wired Setup
3. Select DHCP Enable and set the value to 1. (Touch Edit to go to the editing screen.)

XM series Service Instructions 94


8.2 Network setup Communications

4. Set the IP address at each scale to 0.0.0.0. IP addresses will then be allocated by the
DHCP server for the network.
The host name enables the machine to be identified even if the IP address has changed.
The name can have up to 100 characters in either a fixed or variable string.
Cable lengths
The maximum cable length between each machine and the hub is one hundred metres.
Note: It is usual to allow 5m at either end for the patch cable from the scale to the wall
socket. This allows 90m for the cable run between network wall socket and patch panel.

If the connections between hubs use 10 base T connections, then there should be no
more than four hubs in series.

8.2.2 WLAN Network setup - RF comms (optional)


1. In Manager Mode select Comms Setup
2. Select wireless setup
3. Select the field you wish to change (Touch Edit to go to the editing screen.)
Set the appropriate values for the type of wireless network.
O Set Mode to 0 for ‘Managed’ or 1 for ‘AdHoc’
‘Managed’ is for a communications system via an access point.
Use ‘Ad hoc’ for direct communication (peer to peer) networks.
O Set Channel to 0 for auto select on Managed Mode.
O ESSID
This is a 32 character alphanumeric string which separates wireless LANs. All
machines on the same WLAN must have matching ESSID.
Security settings
WEP
Key Mode
0 for WEP open
1 for WEP shared
2 for WEP auto detect
O Encryption type
1 for WEP
O Key type
Keys 1 to 4 can be configured as 0 for Hex or 1 for ASCII
WPA PSK
O Key Mode is 3 for WPA

XM series Service Instructions 95

O Encryption type is 2 for TKIP


O WPA PSK is the password
WPA2 PSK
O Key Mode is 4 for WPA2
O Encryption type is 3 for AES
O WPA PSK is the password

XM series Service Instructions 96


8.3 Network failure Communications

8.3 Network failure


If scales become disconnected from the network, the programmed network map is
changed to exclude offline machines. The background colour of the network icon in the
status bar of the offline scale changes to red.
Scales that are unable to communicate with the server are referred to as ‘Red’ machines.
Scales communicating with the server are referred to as ‘Green’.
The first time each operator uses the scale following a network failure an alert message
is displayed. There are three options:
O Cancel
O Retry
O Continue Anyway
If the operator chooses to continue trading (Continue Anyway) the Red machine will
operate in Local Mode and the scale will be unable to collect transactions and totals on
the rest of the network. The operator can still ‘float’ on Green machines.
The scale will display the message ‘Network Change. Check transaction’ when the
operator applies the first change to a transaction after a network map change.

8.3.1 Network reconciliation


When communication with the server is re-established item and transaction data is
resynchronised across the network using the most recent data.
