Upgrading Firmware

Firmware upgrades can provide improved
functionality to your system. You can download
these free upgrades from
www.lorextechnology.com.

Prior to upgrading your system’s firmware,
you must first format the USB flash drive so it
will function properly with the system.

To upgrade firmware:

1. Connect a USB flash drive to the USB port

on the front panel of the DVR and format
(see “Formatting the USB Drive” on
page 38.
) Once formatting is complete,
remove the USB flash drive and connect it
to a USB port on your computer.

NOTE:

The system creates two folders on your

USB drive:

Picture

and

Movie

.

2. In your web browser, visit your DVR

manufacturer’s website and download the
free firmware upgrade.

3. Copy the firmware file to the connected

USB flash drive—

do not

place the file in

either the Picture or Movie folder. Once the
file transfer is complete, remove the USB
flash drive from your computer.

4. Disconnect the power cable to power off

your DVR and connect the USB flash drive.
Reconnect the power cable.

5. The system will detect the USB drive and

new firmware and begin the upgrade
process. The system will prompt you when
the upgrade is complete.

6. Remove the USB flash drive from your DVR

and power off your system.

7. Power on the system. The system is now

upgraded with the new firmware.

be undone.
