R1001 / R4001
Due to improvements in technology and the availability of new features, the
R1001/R4001 series of DVRs come with the ability to have the firmware, or DVR
operating system, to be easily upgraded in the field. There are several ways this can be
done: through the Ethernet connection, through the Front Panel USB connection, and
through the Removable Hard Drive Module USB connection.
Removable Hard Drive Module USB Firmware Upgrade
To upgrade the firmware on the DVR, you must put the upgrade file in the
ads directory on the hard drive. The DVR will recognize this file and
automatically perform the upgrade as shown in Figure 88 below. Once the DVR
has finished upgrading itself, a success message will appear (as shown in Figure
89 on Page 88) and a bootstrap algorithm will restart the DVR.
