9	BVIP Firmware Updates
	The AutoDome 800 Series incorporate a network video server in the IP module. The primary
	function of the server is to encode video and control data for transmission over a TCP/IP
	network. The AutoDome 800 Series also allows an operator to update the BVIP firmware via
	the TCP/IP network.
	The latest BVIP firmware is available on the Bosch Security Systems Web site. To download
	the service pack from the Web, navigate to www.boschsecurity.us, click the CCTV link, then
	click Cameras, PTZ and navigate to the product page for the AutoDome 800 Series. Then click
	the Software tab on the product page.
9.1	Upgrading the AutoDome 800 Series
	The preferred method to update an AutoDome 800 Series is through a direct connection
	between the camera and a PC. This method entails connecting the Ethernet cable from the
	camera directly to the Ethernet port of a PC.
	If the direct-connect method is not practical you can also update the AutoDome 800 Series
	through a Local Area Network (LAN). You cannot, however, update the AutoDome 800 Series
	through a Wide Area Network (WAN) or via the Internet.
