Firmware updates

It is possible to update or change the camera firmware without opening the housing. New code

is loaded in via the Ethernet port and with help of web browser user interface. There are two

kinds of firmware updates: MCU and FPGA. The MCU (microcontroller unit) updates affect the

user interface and high level features of the camera, while the FPGA (field-programmable gate

array) updates provide enhancements for low level or hardware related functions.

The MCU update is first initiated by the command FIRMWARE UPDATE and then completed with

help of the user interface that opens up by accessing the main page of the camera web server.

The FPGA update is done by directly accessing the respective update page.

Caution

Ensure that the camera receives proper power during the complete firmware

update process. A power break can potentially leave the camera in a state, where it can

not start again.

5.12.1

MCU firmware update

Make sure you have the correct file (.hex) for the camera model and the existing

configuration available.

Make sure you have a working communication via the Ethernet port.

Make sure you have a compatible web browser and can access the main page

(

http://10.10.10.10

Check and make a note of the existing configuration. Telnet command: VER.

Save any settings that you want to keep. The camera will reboot during the process.

Initiate the camera by telnet command FIRMWARE UPDATE. You may still cancel the

operation after this. Send command CONFIRM when asked, if you want to go ahead.

The green LED near the power connector should now start flashing rapidly. This is the

indication that the camera is waiting for the new code.

Access

http://10.10.10.10

or refresh the page, if you already were there. The user

interface will let you browse for the new file (.hex) and upload it to the camera.

You can still cancel the update here, in which case the camera will reboot once

automatically. The LED turns first into steady orange color. Wait until it becomes green

and steady again. You will have to make a new connection to the camera after this.

10.

If you instead clicked on the upload button, this LED will continue flashing with multiple

colors during the loading.

Do not interrupt the upload.

11.

The camera will then automatically reboot. The LED will first go off, then turn orange

and finally green.

12.

Close old communication sessions to the camera and establish new ones as needed.

13.

Verify by command VER that the MCU version number has changed as intended.
