How to Check your Dash Cam’s current Firmware Version
Within the Setup Menu, on page 3, select ‘System Info’. Here you will find information relating to your
Dash Cam, including what firmware version is currently active (i.e R05.3).
Ways to Update Firmware on your Dash Cam
Connect your Dash Cam’s SD Card to PC or Mac using a card reader. This will open a file explorer drive,
(e.g) Removable Disk (E:) and show the contents of your SD Card. Go to the ‘Support & Downloads’ page
on nextbase.com and download the newest firmware version (i.e R05.4); this will download as .bin file.
Drag and drop the .bin file to the SD Card explorer.
Eject the SD card and insert it back into your Dash Cam. When you connect the power cable your Dash
Cam will turn on, and will automatically begin updating. While updating, both the Nextbase™ logo
beneath the screen and the red LED to the left of the screen will start flashing.
Once the update has been completed, the logo and LED will stop flashing, and your Dash Cam will
automatically restart.
If you have a PC, You can also update your Dash cam using the ‘ Update Dash Cam’ function on
MyNextbase Player™. This function will NOT work on a Mac. Connect your Dash Cam to PC via USB, select
‘
Firmware Update ’ and open up MyNextbase Player™ (available to download for free from nextbase.com).
Select ‘ Update Dash Cam ’. A pop-up will appear on your PC describing your current firmware, and the
latest version available. When you select update, your Dash Cam will automatically begin updating.
While the Dash Cam is updating, both the Nextbase™ Logo below the screen, and the red LED will flash.
Please note that an internet connection is required for the Dash Cam to be updated.
If ‘Keep User Settings’ is turned ON in the Setup Menu, your Dash Cam will boot up normally, Notes:
straight into video live view mode, ready to use. If ‘Keep User Settings’ is turned OFF, after the update is
complete, the Dash Cam will boot up into the First Time Use menu, which must be completed before the
Dash Cam can be used.
Be sure to externally back up any files you want to keep before updating the firmware.
