SECTION 7: DOWNLOADING NEW FIRMWARE TO THE HEGS5000 7.1 INTRODUCTION
New firmware for the HEGS5000 and HEGS5001 controllers can be downloaded through
the RS-232 port. This is done through a simple windows program called Ultrak Code
Server.
To download the latest version of the Code Server, visit the download section on the
Honeywell website
(http://www.honeywellvideo.com/support/downloads/Downloads_keyboards.html ).
Select Keyboards and Controllers. Locate the HEGS5000 or HEGS5001 and follow the
instruction to download the Ultrak Code Server.
To download the latest version of the HEGS5000 or HEGS5001 firmware, click the latest
version and select “Open.” This will open Winzip and install the firmware to the default
directory (C:\Program Files\Ultrak Code Server\CCTV\HEGS5000 or HEGS5001). If
Code Server was installed to a different drive, select the drive prior to installing.
