2. Extract the firmware file and copy it to a USB thumb drive (not included).
3. Insert the USB thumb drive (not included) into a USB port on the system.
4. From the Live View display, right-click to open the Quick Menu, then click Main Menu.
5. Click
, then click REMOTE DEVICE. Click the IPC UPGRADE tab on the
side panel.
6. Click Select. Select the firmware file on the USB drive and click OK.
7. Check the cameras you would like to apply the upgrade to in the list and then click Start
Upgrade.
CAUTION
Wait for the firmware upgrade to complete before turning off or unplugging the cameras or NVR. The cam-
eras will restart during the firmware update process.
