Appendix 1: Firmware Update Procedure

From time to time Datavideo may release new firmware to either add new features or to fix reported bugs
in the current HS-1300 firmware as well as the video streaming server. Customers can update the firmware
themselves if they wish or they can contact their local dealer or reseller for assistance should they prefer
this method.
This section describes the firmware update processes for the switcher as well as the video streaming server
and each should take approximately few minutes to complete.

 HS-1300 x 1
 12V Power adapter x 1
