Firmware Updates
IMPORTANT!
Before proceeding with the firmware update described below, make sure the vehicle’s
ignition is turned on.
1. Get the latest software by logging on to
http://www.digitalallyinc.com/login.cfm
and
register for an account to be an authorized user. By registering you will be able to
download all the latest firmware/software updates and will be notified of future
upgrades.
2. Download and unzip the VuLink firmware file.
3. Connect the computer to the VuLink using the supplied
USB cable and, using Windows Explorer, navigate to
the VuLink drive.
4. Copy the firmware file to the root directory of the VuLink.
The file name is:
firmware.r
5. Right-click on the VuLink drive and select Eject, then disconnect the USB cable from
the device. The Green LED indicator should be on and the Yellow and Red indicators
will alternately flash while the new firmware is being installed. Wait for this operation to
complete.
6. Re-connect the USB and open the
dvminfo
file to verify the new firmware version.
7. Eject the VuLink drive and disconnect the USB cable.
Performing a Reset
Using a small device such as a paper clip or eye-glass
screwdriver, press the recessed reset button that is located as
shown to the right. After a reset occurs, VuLink will determine if
a firmware file is present and read the
deviceconfig
file for
changes.
