This article provides steps for accessing Android Settings while in EloView mode on an i-Series 4 device.
The I-Series 4.0 device operates in a locked-down kiosk mode by default for enhanced security. However, you can access Android settings through the Device Control Panel using the steps below.
Prerequisites
- Physical access to the I-Series 4.0 device
- Device Control Panel password (default: 1elo)
- Admin password (default: 1elo)
Important: If your device has been registered in EloView, the passwords may have been changed. Check the EloView Device Settings screen for the current passwords.
Steps to Access Android Settings
1. Open the Device Control Panel
- Simultaneously press the Home and Power buttons on the device
- Swipe up on the screen to access the Device Control Panel
2. Enter Device Control Panel
- Enter the Device Control Panel password (default: 1elo)
- If the device is registered in EloView and the password has been changed, check the EloView Device Settings screen for the current password
3. Access Admin Settings
- Tap the hamburger menu (three horizontal lines) in the upper right corner
- Select Admin from the menu
- Enter the Admin password (default: 1elo)
- If a separate Admin password has been set in EloView, check the EloView Device Settings screen for the current Admin password
4. Navigate to Android Settings
- On the Quick Settings screen, tap Settings
- Tap Android Settings
- You now have access to the full Android settings menu
5. Exit Android Settings
- When finished, tap the Back button to return to the Quick Settings screen
- Tap the X in the upper right corner to close the Control Panel
Troubleshooting
- If the default password (1elo) doesn't work, verify the current password in EloView Device Settings
- Ensure you're pressing both the Home and Power buttons simultaneously to access the Control Panel
- If you're unable to access the Control Panel, contact your system administrator
