Sometimes your camera´s WebUI might not behave the way you want. You updated your camera´s software, but it still shows you the old version ? An update should bring new functions to the user interface - but they are nowhere to be seen? Or you simply cannot change a setting? Your Browser might have cached old parts of the user interface and refuses to reload the new or updated files. Here is how you can get rid of your browsers browsing history in several common browsers.

Update via the WebUI

To update the camera through the WEB USER INTERFACE simply open the UPDATE MENU and click on Choose File to upload the pkg update file you downloaded earlier. After selecting the file click on submit to start the update. Please wait for the camera to reboot and reload the user interface. Never unplug the camera during this process!
