Upgrading Arecont unit firmware
To upgrade the firmware for Arecont units, you must use the Arecont Firmware Loader. Before
you upgrade, you must ensure that the unit is not streaming video. If the unit is streaming video,
remove the schedule from the camera.
Configuring Arecont H.264 units
To use key frame-related functions (such as still alarms) with Arecont H.264 cameras, you must
set a high frame rate, or modify the frame interval between key frames. To change the interval
setting, use the following URL:
http://<camera.ip>/setreg?page=3®=21&val=<value meant
to replace the 50>
. For example, if your camera IP is 10.1.24.35 and you want to change the
interval setting to five, you would type:
http://10.1.24.35/setreg?page=3®=21&val=5
.
NOTE
If you are using an Arecont SurroundVideo IP Camera, you must replace the 21 in the
URL with 100 (http://10.1.24.35/setreg?page=3®=
100
&val=5).
