Updating Homepatrol-1 Firmware; Updating The Homepatrol-1 Database; Updating Firmware/Database - Uniden HOMEPATROL-1 Owner's Manual

HomePatrol‐1 operates on a single profile at a time, so, if you want to significantly change your current
profile, save it to Sentinel first. The saved profile becomes a snapshot of your HomePatrol‐1
configuration at that moment. When you want to restore that specific profile later, write it back to
HomePatrol‐1. For example, if you are traveling to another city and you will be creating a profile for that
city, write your current profile to Sentinel. You can restore that profile when you return and all your
settings will be saved.
Refer to HomePatrol‐1 Sentinel Software Help files for detailed information about profiles.
Updating HomePatrol‐1 Firmware
From time to time, Uniden will release firmware updates to improve existing functionality, add new
features, or address issues found in its operation. Updating the firmware takes just a few minutes and is
easily accomplished using the HomePatrol Sentinel Software you installed on your PC at HomePatrol‐1
initialization. If you did not install Sentinel software, refer to the HomePatrol‐1 and Sentinel section later
in this manual.
Simply connect your HomePatrol‐1 to your PC using the supplied USB cable and select "Mass Storage".
Then, in Sentinel select UPDATE  Update Firmware and follow the on‐screen prompts.
Updating the HomePatrol‐1 Database
To update the HomePatrol‐1's database, connect it to your PC using the supplied USB cable. If you have
upgraded to the extreme features, then select "Mass Storage". Then, in Sentinel select UPDATE 
Update Master HPDB. Finally, write the new database to your HomePatrol‐1 by selecting
HomePatrol  Write to Homepatrol.
