1. Open Device Discovery. You may open it by navigating to Start→ AVTECH Device Discovery Utility.
2. Connect your Room Alert to power using the AVTECH 5V power adapter that came with the unit. The Ethernet ports on computers do not provide PoE, so you will need to use that power adapter to power the unit.
3. Device Discovery should immediately display the Recover Firmware? dialog box:

If this prompt doesn’t appear, try power-cycling your unit. (Disconnect the power cord for your unit, wait 10 seconds, and then reconnect it.) The prompt should then appear.
4. Select OK. A page of instructions for firmware recovery will appear in your browser.
5. The Enter MAC Address dialog box should then appear.
– In the box, enter your Room Alert’s 12-character MAC Address in this format (including the hyphens): XX-XX-XX-XX-XX-XX.
You can find your MAC address printed on a sticker on the bottom of your unit.
– Then select OK.

If this prompt doesn’t appear, please see the note at the end of this FAQ.
6. When the dialog box appears telling you to power-cycle your Room Alert, select OK.

Disconnect the power cord from your unit, wait 10 seconds, and then reconnect it.
7. While your Room Alert reboots, Device Discovery displays a message at the bottom of the screen:

8. Once your Room Alert reboots, the Enter IP Address dialog box will appear as shown below:

– You may enter a static IP address or enter 0.0.0.0 to use DHCP.
– Then select OK.
9. When the Saving Network Settings dialog box appears, select OK.

10. Your Room Alert will reboot and appear in the list of discovered devices when AVTECH Device Discovery next scans your network.
11. Once your Room Alert has fully rebooted:
– Disconnect the Ethernet cable from the unit.
– Connect the unit normally to your network.
– Power-cycle the unit again. (Disconnect it from power, wait 10 seconds, and reconnect it to power.)
