Pelco manual Updating the SM5200

Updating the SM5200

Updates for the SM5200 are applied through the WS5200 application or Endura Utilities; you cannot apply an update using the Web configuration application.

NOTE: Applying a software update will cause the unit to restart. Do not update the system manager unless you have planned or scheduled system maintenance.

If you have two SM5200 units in a failover configuration, the update process automatically accounts for both primary and secondary system managers. The update is first applied to the secondary system manager, and then to the primary system manager. Because the update process requires a restart, a failover occurs when the primary unit restarts to apply the update.
