The "Take Ownership" process converts a unowned EST Unit to an owned EST Unit. This means the EST Unit is marked, both locally and in Athena's cloud network, as being owned by a specific At Home or Club user. Additionally, the EST Unit's certificate and configuration files are downloaded allowing it to run.
The Take Ownership process has to run for all EST Units before they are ready to be used. There are three reasons why a EST Unit would need to have the Take Ownership process execute:
•Recently purchased and not yet configured.
•Factory reset has been ran.
•The SD card had to be replaced.
