Firmware Settings Window

Before you upgrade firmware, download the firmware file to a PC that is accessible on your network and unzip the file if it is zipped. To download firmware, go to this web page:

After you upgrade firmware, the IP camera restarts automatically. It retains all configuration information.

To display the Firmware Settings window, access the configuration windows as described in the “Performing the Initial Setup of the IP Camera” section on page 2-5, click Administration, then click Firmware.

If you change any options in this window, you must click the Save Settings button to save the changes. If you do not click this button, changes are not retained when you exit the window. Save Settings appears at the bottom of the window. You may need to scroll down to it.
