UPGRADE INSTRUCTIONS

The firmware can be upgraded using AXIS Camera Management, HTTP or FTP.

AXIS Camera Management:

1. Download and install AXIS Camera Management on your computer.
2. Download the upgrade file to a directory that is accessible from your local computer if the upgrade file is not to be downloaded via Internet connection from the Axis Support pages.
3. Run AXIS Camera Management. All the Axis devices found on the local subnet (or on subnets with routers that support multicasting) are shown
in the list.
4. Select the devices that you want to upgrade with new firmware (you can
even select different models) and click the Upgrade icon.
Note: A dialog will open if some of the devices can not be configured, e.g. if the devices are not accessible.
5. The Upgrade Firmware dialog shows a list of camera models.
6. Click to locate the new firmware versions stored on your hard drive, select among already downloaded files or select to download official firmware file from Axis Support Pages (marked with Download). This needs to be done for each Axis network camera or video encoder model.
7. Click OK to start upgrading the devices.

HTTP:

1. Download the upgrade file to a directory that is accessible from your
local computer.
2. Go to the product's start page (e.g. http://192.168.0.90).
3. Click the Setup link and log in as "root" (or any other user with Administrator privileges). You must be logged in as an Administrator to
upgrade the unit.
4. Click System Options in the menu to the left.
5. Click Maintenance.
6. Click the Browse button in the Upgrade Server section.
7. Select the upgrade file you downloaded (and maybe decompressed) from our site. This file is typically named after the product and Firmware version.
8. Click the Open button.
9. Click the Upgrade button in the Upgrade Server section.
10. Wait for the flash load to complete, which may take 1-10 minutes. The upgrade procedure is in four steps:
- Step 1, Shut down: Running applications are shut down and active connections are terminated.
- Step 2, Uploading firmware: The old firmware will be erased and the new firmware will be saved. During this step, the Power LED will blink green/amber. After a while the progress of the upgrade will be displayed in the Web browser.
- Step 3, Reboot: The system restarts automatically.
- Step 4, Reconfiguration:The new firmware settings are configured to match the previous settings.The Status LED will be amber during this step.
11. After the upgrade has completed, the unit will automatically initiate the
system, during which the Status LED blinks amber. When initiation is complete and the system is ready for use, the Status LED will be green.

FTP:

1. You must be at the command prompt and in the directory that contains the upgrade file. Example: C:\Axis\Product\Firmware
2. From the command prompt, open an FTP connection to the unit you wish to upgrade. (Do not use a Windows based FTP-program to do this, use only
command line FTP programs!)
3. Log in as root. You must be logged in as the root user to upgrade the unit.
4. Change to binary transfer mode by typing bin and press enter.
5. Type hash and press enter. (This will allow you to see how the upgrade
progresses)
6. Type the command put XXX.bin flash where XXX.bin is the name of the upgrade file you downloaded (and maybe decompressed) from our site. This file is typically named after the product and Firmware version.
7. Wait for the flash load to complete, which may take 1-10 minutes. The
upgrade procedure is in four steps:
- Step 1, Shut down: Running applications are shut down and active connections are terminated.
- Step 2, Uploading firmware: The old firmware will be erased and the new firmware will be saved. During this step, the Power LED will blink green/amber. After a while the progress of the upgrade will be displayed in the command prompt.
- Step 3, Reboot: The FTP session terminates and the system restarts automatically.
- Step 4, Reconfiguration: The new firmware settings are configured to match the previous settings. The Status LED will be amber during this step.
8. After the upgrade has completed, the unit will automatically initiate the system, during which the Status LED blinks amber. When
