FIRMWARE UPLOAD

Units have flash EPROMs for firmware upgrades in the field. These upgrades can be done directly from the web browser.

Do the following to upload firmware using the web browser:

1.Obtain the latest PelcoNet NET104A Transmission System firmware from Pelco (http://www.pelco.com).

2.Use the browser to select the General Settings configuration page of your unit.

3.Use the Browse button in the Firmware update field to select the correct new firmware file.

4.Click the Upload button.

5.After about 30 seconds you should get a feedback message from the connected unit.

6.The message Òupload complete Ð WAITÓ confirms the correct upload of the new firmware, which is now being installed. The alarm input LEDs will flash back and forth between red and green to indicate installation.

WARNING: Do not disconnect power to the unit for any reason while firmware is being in- stalled. Disrupting the cycle will damage the flash EPROM. If this occurs, you will have to return the unit for repair.

When all the alarm input LEDs turn green, reprogramming is complete and the unit cycles power.

7.If you try to upload an invalid firmware file, you will get the message ÒUpload Failed.Ó

8.If you revisit the General Settings configuration page after the firmware is uploaded successfully, you will see the message ÒNew Firmware Installed.Ó
