4. Upgrading the firmware
The controlling firmware is stored in a FLASH memory. To update this firmware the following
equipment are required:
• A PC compatible computer with a standard RS232 serial interface.
• A pin-to-pin cable with a female 9-pin DSUB on one end and a male 9-pin DSUB on the
other end.
• The software, NICManager, runs under WINDOWS 98/ME and WINDOWS 2000/XP.
The NICManager is a freeware program and can be required from Triacon or downloa-
ded from Triacon's homepage.
4.1 Download the firmware
Before starting the download it can be wise to save the setup to the PC as it may happen
that downloading new firmware causes the setup to be erased. How to save a set-up, please
refer to chapter 3.6.
Connect the PC to the camera. The communication cable should be connected to either
HOST or AUX1 on the camera and the other end either COM1 or COM2 on the PC.
Prepare the camera for a download session by switching it off, press down the P key and
hold it down while switching the camera on again. Now the operator display should look like
this.
NIC2-2 Bootprogram Version 2.12

When the update is done the Network ID Camera will restart automaticly with the new firm-
ware running.
