You must first download the new firmware to your computer. Be
sure to download the file that matches the number of channels for
your device. You cannot update your system directly from the Luma
website.
Once you have downloaded the firmware to your local computer,
click
Browse and navigate to it. DVR files have a .dav extension,
while NVR files have a .mav extension. Once you have selected the
firmware update file, its path shows in the text box. Be sure to select
the proper file; nothing prevents you from upgrading to an older file.
Click Update . While you are updating, the system locks you out
of navigating the configuration menus. You can track the status of
the update to the right of the status label. Once the update reaches
100%, the recorder reboots itself (the word
Rebooting appears near
the center of your screen). When it has finished rebooting, it unlocks
the configuration menus and you can resume operations.
During an update, if you click on either the log or live page, the
update aborts and the system returns to normal operation without
the update. If the update hangs for some reason, the update gets
safely aborted but the system does not automatically unlock the
configuration page. Just click over to the log or live page to resume
operations.
