Upgrading System Firmware
GeoVision periodically releases updated firmware on the website. The new firmware can be
simply loaded into the GV-IPCAM by using the Web interface or IP Device Utility.
Before you Start
⚫
If you use the IP Device Utility for firmware upgrade, the computer used to upgrade
firmware must be under the same network as the camera.
⚫
Stop monitoring of the camera.
⚫
Stop all remote connections, such as GV-VMS.
⚫
While the firmware is being updated, the power supply must not be interrupted.
WARNING
: The interruption of power supply during updating causes not only update
failures but also damages to the camera. In this case, please contact our sales
representatives and send your device back to GeoVision for repair.
⚫
Do not turn the power off within 10 minutes after the firmware is updated.
