Check the current firmware version of the unit to be upgraded. The upgrade to version 2.34.1 can only be performed if version 2.12 or later is installed. 1. Ensure that active applications (e.g. event based or continuous video transmission from the AXIS Video Server) are disabled prior to initiating the upgrade. 2. Be sure to take a careful note of your application/layout and other settings, prior to upgrading, since these settings will be lost during the upgrade. 3. You must be at the command prompt and in the directory that contains the upgrade file. Example: C:\Axis\2400\2_34_1> 4. From the command prompt, open an ftp connection to the unit you wish to upgrade. (Do not use a "Windows" based ftp-program to do this, use only command line ftp programs!) 5. Log in as root. The default password for the root user is "pass", unless this has been changed by the user. You must be logged in as the root user to upgrade the unit. 6. Change to binary transfer mode by typing "bin" and press enter. 7. Type "hash" and press enter. (This will allow you to see how the upgrade progresses) 8. Type the command "put XXX.bin flash_all" where XXX.bin is the name of the upgrade file you downloaded (and maybe decompressed) from our site. This file is typically named 2400_2341.bin or axis2400_2.bin. 9. Wait for the flash load to complete which may take 1-10 minutes. 10. After the upgrade has completed, the unit will automatically restart and show a steady green on the Power and Status LED:s and flashing green on the Network LED. 11. Reconfigure your settings.
