With the recent RIW System 4.8 system release on 12 October 2022, an additional software upgrade on kiosks has been scheduled between 8-10 November 2022 to enable the following new features to be applied:

The software upgrade will be performed remotely, and the expected downtime will be minimal, at most a few minutes.  

Your MTA Key Account Manager will be in contact with your scheduled software release day and time.

The following checklist provides what you need to do to get ready for the Kiosk software upgrade, and what you can do after the upgrade.

This instruction applies to the following user roles:

• Advanced Project Admin
• Employer Admin (where designated as a Contractor in Charge with a site that has a Kiosk)
• Employer Admin - No Payment (where designated as a Contractor in Charge with a site that has a Kiosk) 
• Project Admin
• Site Admin

1	Before your software upgrade, you must add site hosts to manage site visitors. This can be done now. Site hosts must be an active, current Rail Industry Worker. Site hosts will receive notifications that a visitor has signed in on a Kiosk and nominated them as their host. Also, site hosts can override and register a new visitor where the visitor details match those of an existing cardholder or visitor. If a site host is not assigned prior to the software upgrade, visitors will be unable to sign in through your Kiosk, as no site hosts will be available. Please consider advising any assigned site hosts of this new functionality and their responsibilities for managing visitors to your site.
2	Review your site contacts. Site contacts will receive notifications when a Rail Industry Worker is denied access to site. You can include either a mobile phone number and/or email address for a site contact. A site contact does not need to be a Rail Industry Worker.
3	Ensure you have updated your site address to use geomapping with swipe data and the muster list.
4	On the day of your upgrade, the software will be updated remotely. Please ensure the kiosk is powered on and in normal operating mode. There may be a minute or two while the software applies, but there is no expected outage that would affect the swiping of workers in to site.
5	After your software upgrade, review your current kiosk site inductions to determine if they should continue to be delivered to both Rail Industry Workers and/or visitors, as these two audiences can be set independently. If you would like to have different inductions for workers and/or visitors, you can request an amendment to the current site induction by contacting the RIW Service Desk. To add a new site induction to the RIW System, go to https://www.riw.net.au/contact-us/request-a-service/ and submit Competency Management Service Request by selecting category & sub-category mentioned in the below screenshot:
6	After your software upgrade, review your current kiosk site briefings to determine if they should continue to be delivered to both Rail Industry Workers and/or visitors, as these two audiences can be set independently.  You can also set whether a briefing is to be delivered only once, or every time a worker/visitor swipes in to your site. Refer to How do you add and edit site safety briefings for kiosks?
7	Have you put up your RIW site posters yet? This is a great way to communicate your site requirements to those who access your site, and also a site contact should they have further queries. Refer to How to edit and customise the RIW site posters.

If you have any further queries, please reach out to your MTA Key Account Manager.

This article details how you can add and edit kiosk site safety briefings for Rail Industry Workers and visitors who swipe into site on a RIW Kiosk.

Safety briefings are information that supports safe working at a site. Safety briefings can be added and configured to be delivered to cardholders and visitors.

IMPORTANT NOTE FOR KIOSKS USERS
When updating site requirements in the RIW System, it can take between 15-30 minutes for any changes to be transferred to a Kiosk, such as site entry rules, working hour rules, site briefings or site inductions. Sites should assess the risk between when the change is made in the RIW System to when it is available in the Kiosk, and determine whether alternative access control measures are required during the update period.

It is advised that site briefings are added to the RIW System at least the day before it is required, and the start date set accordingly.

This instruction applies to the following user roles:

• Advanced Project Admin
• Employer Admin (where designated as a Contractor In Charge)
• Employer Admin - No Payment (where designated as a Contractor In Charge)

Specific To: Select whether the briefing is specific to the network, a project or to a site. Depending on the option chosen, you will then need to specify the Network, Project or Site. Cardholder or Visitor: You must choose one option each for Cardholder and Visitor, to Show Every Time the person swipes into the kiosk, Show Once Only or Not Applicable. These can be set independently. Content: Upload a PDF file with the briefing material by clicking on the Choose File button and locating the file on your PC/device. Note: As the kiosks have a landscape screen orientation it is recommended that all content be produced in landscape orientation to better align with this and improve readability. When all the fields are completed, click Save.

This article details the steps required to place a site managed by an RIW System enabled kiosk into evacuation mode. When a site is placed into evacuation mode, a notification (email/SMS) is broadcast to all swiped-in cardholders, directing them to the designated evacuation / muster point. This mode also prevents new cardholders or visitors from signing into a site through the kiosk once it has been placed in evacuation mode.

For sites that have more than one kiosk or tablet, all units will be placed into evacuation mode simultaneously, as this function is performed in the RIW System and not on the kiosk itself.

When a kiosk is placed into evacuation mode, all turnstiles and transient points will provide free access (no authority to work check or scanning of RIW cards is required) for workers to exit the site and emergency services to enter the site.

This instruction applies to the following RIW System User Roles:

• Advanced Project Admin
• Project Admin
• Site Admin

Step 1: Log in to the RIW System

Go to https://app.riw.net.au and login using your credentials.

When cleaning your touch screen, treat it with care and do not use aggressive cleaning products on the screen surface and use only a dry, clean cloth.
• Wipe off any visible marks/dust or build-up off the powder-coated steel body.

Quarterly maintenance

• Vacuum any dust and debris from inside main area of the kiosk housing, scanner module and PC shelf.
• Visual check of components for any defects etc.

Annual maintenance

• Review performance of all components.
• Check components: scanner, touch screen LCD, label printer etc. are functioning correctly. 
• 3 years - Check/replace components where required.

When an RIW System enabled Kiosk goes into offline mode,  there is no internet connectivity to the device, or the connection with the RIW System may be disabled due to a system upgrade.

Kiosks and tablets can operate in this modified state for 72 hours without connectivity.

Please note that during periods of no internet connectivity, kiosks and tablets are not receiving any updates from the RIW System or sending any updates to the RIW System. Once the Kiosk or Tablet comes back online, data will be updated.

Any turnstiles associated with a Kiosk or Tablet at a site that goes into offline mode will continue to provide or deny access based on their kiosks authority to work outcome.

If a worker has not signed in to the kiosk in the last 28 days, they will be unable to swipe in when a Kiosk is in offline mode.  The worker should check with the Site Access Controller or Site Supervisor for access.

If a RIW System enabled tablet device is faulty and requires repair offsite, a swap process has been implemented to expedite replacement and reduce the time of a site being out of operation.

This instruction applies to the following RIW System User Roles: 

• RIW System enabled tablet owners

Step 1: Contact the RIW Service Desk

Contact the RIW Service Desk on [email protected] and provide the following details:

• Company name
• Site name
• Site contact name
• Site contact mobile phone number
• Site address
• Device ID (if available). The Device ID is a sticker on the back of the tablet which starts with MTABLxxx (where x is a number). Earlier tablets may not have this asset sticker affixed.
• Device serial number. This is the Microsoft device serial on the back of the tablet. To see this serial number you will need to remove the tablet from the case.
• Ticket reference number (if issue logged previously)

If a ticket has been raised previously, you can just respond to the original ticket with this information.

Step 2: Replacement

A replacement tablet will be sent directly to the site.

Step 3: Return the faulty tablet

Once the replacement tablet has been received, the faulty tablet is to be packed in the same packaging and sent back to the providing shipping address within two (2) business days of receiving the replacement tablet.

Failure to send the faulty device within two (2) business days will result in a breach of the swap process and will incur a charge of a new tablet.

Each device needs to be carefully assessed before requesting a swap as any existing physical damage to the device, such as a cracked screen, will void warranty conditions and incur a charge of a new tablet.
