Easy way via Upgrade Wizard

Run the Upgrade Wizard included in the product CDROM and proceed by the prompts. Refer to the user's guide of Upgrade Wizard for details.

Alternative via FTP

1.Decompress the compressed file in a local folder. A file named FLASH.BIN should appear.

2.Use the FTP program and change the working directory to the local folder where FLASH.BIN exists.

3.Connect to VisualServer with user name as “root” and password.

4.Use the PUT command to upload FLASH.BIN to VisualServer. The file size is near 1.5 mega bytes. It will take approximately 2 seconds in a local network, 2 minutes by null modem connection or 6 minutes by modem, but still subject to user's network.

5.After upload is complete, close the connection.

6.If the received FLASH.BIN is checked without error, VisualServer will update the software in Flash memory and restart automatically. When VisualServer starts writing firmware, both status LED indicators will stay on until system restarts. It takes about 30 to 40 seconds. User must keep the power stable during the update process. After the system restarts, VisualServer may need installation depending on whether the “Reset network at next boot” option is enabled or not. After VisualServer boots up, reload the web page in the browser.

If power fails during the software upgrade, the program in the memory of NetworKam may be

destroyed permanently. If NetworKam cannot restart properly, ask the dealer for technical service.

Vivotek, a renowned leader in the IP surveillance industry, has a diverse range of IP cameras designed for various security applications. Among these, the Vivotek IP2121 and IP2111 stand out due to their advanced features, robust technologies, and reliable characteristics.

The Vivotek IP2121 and IP2111 are both designed for high-quality video surveillance. The IP2121 features a 1-Megapixel sensor capable of delivering stunningly clear images with a resolution of 1280 x 800 pixels. This ensures that every detail is captured, whether during the day or night. On the other hand, the IP2111 is equipped with a similar sensor but focuses on delivering a more compact and cost-effective solution for users who require less intensive surveillance needs. Both models support H.264 compression technology, which significantly reduces file sizes without compromising image quality, thereby optimizing bandwidth usage and storage space.

One of the important aspects of both cameras is their superior low-light performance. The Vivotek IP2121 is designed with a day/night function, which automatically switches from color to monochrome mode when light levels drop, ensuring clear images even in challenging lighting conditions. This feature is complemented by WDR (Wide Dynamic Range) technology, which enhances image quality in scenes with high contrast between light and shadow.

Both models boast a weather-proof IP66 rating, making them suitable for outdoor installations. This feature protects the cameras against rain, dust, and other harsh environmental conditions. The cameras are also powered over Ethernet (PoE), allowing for easy installation without the need for additional power supplies.

In terms of monitoring capabilities, the Vivotek IP2121 and IP2111 support multiple streaming formats, ensuring compatibility with various video management systems (VMS). They come with built-in motion detection capabilities, which can trigger alerts and notifications when suspicious movement is detected.

The user-friendly interface of Vivotek's software ensures that setting up and managing the cameras is straightforward. These features, coupled with the ability to easily integrate with other Vivotek devices, provides a comprehensive surveillance solution.

Overall, the Vivotek IP2121 and IP2111 represent reliable choices for users seeking efficient, high-quality surveillance systems that combine advanced technology with durability, making them perfect for both residential and commercial applications.
