18 BVIP Firmware Updates
The AutoDome Easy II IP incorporates a network video server in
the IP module. The primary function of the server is to encode
video and control data for transmission over a TCP/IP network.
The AutoDome Easy II IP also allows an operator to update the
BVIP firmware via the TCP/IP network.
The latest BVIP firmware is available on the Bosch Security
Systems Web site. To download the service pack from the Web,
navigate to www.boschsecurity.us, click the CCTV link, then
click Cameras, PTZ and navigate to the product page for the
AutoDome Easy II IP. Then click the Software tab on the
product page.
18.1 Upgrading the AutoDome Easy II IP
The preferred method to update an AutoDome Easy II IP is
through a direct connection between the camera and a PC. This
method entails connecting the Ethernet cable from the camera
directly to the Ethernet port of a PC.
If the direct-connect method is not practical you can also
update the AutoDome Easy II IP through a Local Area Network
(LAN). You cannot, however, update the AutoDome Easy II IP
through a Wide Area Network (WAN) or via the Internet.
