Chapter 6 Advanced Applications
This chapter introduces more advanced applications.
6.1 Upgrading System Firmware
GeoVision periodically releases the updated firmware on the website. The new firmware can
be simply loaded into the camera using the Web interface or the IP Device Utility on the
company
website
.
Important Notes before You Start
Before you start updating the firmware, please read these important notes:
1. If you use the IP Device Utility for firmware upgrade, the computer used to upgrade
firmware must be under the same network of the camera.
2. Stop monitoring of the camera.
3. Stop all the remote connections, such as GV-VMS.
4. While the firmware is being updated,
A. the power supply must not be interrupted, and
B. do not unplug the Ethernet cable if the cable is the source of power supply (Power
over Ethernet or PoE supported).
WARNING: The interruption of power supply during updating causes not only update
failures but also damages to your camera. In this case, please contact your sales
representative and send your device back to GeoVision for repair.
5. Do not turn the power off within 10 minutes after the firmware is updated.
If firmware upgrade fails, you will need to restore the camera to the default settings. For
details, see 6.3 Restoring to Factory Default Settings in the User’s Manual.
