How to update the camera
Find and download the appropriate version of the update package (the .bin file) for your camera from the provided website and do the following:
Connect to the camera using SFTP (you can for example use WinSCP for this)
Port: 22500
User: update
Password: update.flow1
Copy the file into the home folder
Open the web interface and start up the camera and then press the Reboot button in the System tab on the Device page.
After the camera boots up, the system on the camera will be updated. You can verify successful update in two ways:
A. Connect to the camera again using SFTP and check the content of the home folder; in this folder you will see the update_result file containing information about the update and the uploaded update package will be automatically deleted after the update is finished
B. Connect with the appropriate version of FLOW Insights. If the major or minor version does not match, the connection will not be established. You can check the Hotfix version in the Block tab and in the Diagnostic section under the Version attribute.
To access the updated camera you need the same minor version (second number) of the FLOW Insights running on your computer. Download the latest version of FLOW Insights here: .exe or .zip You can download older FLOW Insights versions on this page.
