In Swap flow, when change a unit from Customer A to Customer B, always use the service
Customization Workflow
The primary reason for the customization process is to create a customized unit.
A customized unit is a unit that is ready to ship as a final swap unit.
The second reason for customization is to create “build swap” units and this can be done by
selecting the ‘Service Exchange Unit’ customization script for t he particular model.
The instruction steps below refer to the flowchart on previous page.
2.1 Customi ze Unit
After following the steps in section 1, ‘Emma Login & Script Execution’, you can customize a unit
as follows:
• look for the Customize script for the desired operator:
<Model> <Target> <Lang region> CDF<CDFId>
• if that script is not available locally, select ‘Server search’ for a complete list of available scripts.
When creating a ‘build swap’ unit, select an Exchange Unit as the customization scripts!
• choose the desired script
• the application will download all necessary software to run the script and then flash that software to
the unit
• after successful update, disconnect the unit from the USB Cable
Customization script.
It is important that the consumer get the same Sales Item customization after repair as before,
since the consumers access to content, software upgrades and consumers support depend on
this!
NOTE: For units with internal storage (built in “SD card” user memory), the only services
which erase all user data in the internal memory and update the customization in the internal
storage (MS CDF) are the Services “Refurbish” and “Customize”.
