Introduction
This article aims to explain how to register the Amigo 7N media player on the Engage platform. While most Amino devices can be registered using only a serial number, the 7N model requires an extra step to ensure it connects correctly.
Prerequisites
This article assumes that you have an active Engage account. To complete the registration, you will need the Serial Number and the MAC address of the media player(s) you wish to add.
Why is this needed?
Usually, Engage can automatically identify a device's hardware type based on its serial number. However, the Amigo 7N may have different MAC address prefixes (OUIs), and there is no mapping available that allows Engage to automatically determine which OUI version the device uses. Therefore, to avoid errors, you must manually specify the OUI during the registration process.
Summary
Single Device Registration
If you are registering one device at a time, follow these steps:
- Log in to Engage and navigate to the System module.
- Go to Manage devices > Single device registration.
- In the Device Type dropdown list, select Android Set-Top Box.
- Enter the device's serial number in the Serial Number box.
Note: Do not click "Register" yet. If you do, you will receive a "Wrong serial number" error. - Click the option Specify Product Class.
- A new dropdown menu will appear. From the list of 7N models, select the one that matches the first 6 digits of your device's MAC address (this is the OUI).
- Example: If your MAC address is 04:5F:A6:E4:97:A0, you should select the product class that contains the OUI 045FA6.
- Click Register.
Batch Device Registration
To register multiple Amigo 7N devices at once, you will need to prepare a CSV file where the OUI and Product Class are explicitly linked to each serial number.
- Navigate to System > Manage devices > Batch Device Registration.
- Select Android Set-Top Box from the device type list.
-
Prepare your .csv file.
Each line must contain the Serial Number, the OUI and the Product Class separated by a comma. If you are unsure about the Product Class, please follow the Single Device Registration steps to match the correct one to the OUI.
Use the following format in your code editor or spreadsheet:25C0050394000005,045FA6,ESP-Amigo7N 25C0050394000006,045FA6,ESP-Amigo7N - Upload your .csv file.
- Click Submit.
