{{:public_media:sony_logo.png|}}
===== Step 1: Network connection, firmware version check and retrieving the MAC address =====

* Make sure the screen is properly connected to the internet:  
The screen must be connected to the network via an ethernet cable for activation.
* Retrieve **the Mac Address**: Press the **HELP** button on the remote control, then go to **Network Status** and **Diagnostics**, and write down the Mac Address.
* Proceed with the screen firmware update:  
  - Press the **Help** button on the remote control
  - Go to **System software update**
  - Click on **Software update**
  - Let the screen complete the update, restart if necessary.


===== Step 2: Communicate the MAC address to zebrix support =====

  - Send the screen's MAC address to zebrix support (support@zebrix.net)
  - Zebrix support will link a configuration to the screen on the SONY cloud in order to enable remote provisioning.

===== Step 3: After confirmation from zebrix support: perform a factory reset =====

Only once zebrix support has confirmed that you can proceed, please perform a "Factory Data Reset" on the screen. To do so:  

    - Go to **Settings > System > About > Reset**
    - Click on **Factory Data Reset**
    - The screen will restart.
    - Once the welcome screen is displayed (with the language selection), **do nothing**. The screen will automatically download its configuration from the SONY cloud and install the zebrix application.
    - When a QR CODE and a 6-digit code appear, please send them to **zebrix support** to finalize the activation of your screen in your zebrix account.

===== Step 4: Activation of the zebrix license =====

  - The zebrix activation page will appear, with the screen’s MAC address already filled in
  - Please proceed with the license activation in your zebrix account or contact your zebrix reseller / integrator.
  - In case of any issues, you can also contact the zebrix activation service (activation@zebrix.net)
