FAQ

How are the parcel locker controller and camera connected?

The case connects the locker controller and surveillance equipment through Ethernet. Match the equipment's interfaces, addressing and power requirements; the router supplies the network connection to the remote service.

What happens to a parcel collection transaction during SIM failover?

The backup SIM can restore connectivity where its operator has coverage. An active locker or payment session may need to reconnect, so verify the application state and retry behaviour with the locker platform during commissioning.

Can a failed locker always be fixed without visiting the site?

Remote management can help inspect the router, change configuration and perform updates while a management link is available. A failed power supply, broken lock or physical cable still needs a suitable on-site repair.
