Upgrading using FTP

To upgrade over the network using FTP you will need a file with the new print server
firmware. The name of this file is in the form

product_version.bin

.

The print server must have a valid IP address.

This example uses these sample values:

1. From www.axis.com/techsup/firmware, download the firmware and save it to a new

directory on your computer, e.g.

C:\ Axis

2. Open a command prompt from Start => Run. Type

cmd in the Run Window and click OK.

3. The DOS Command Prompt window will open. Make sure you are working from the c: directory

(type

c: and press Enter).

4. Type

cd Axis

5. Type

dir and press Enter. The Axis directory you have created will display a list of all files.

6. Connect to the print server using ftp: Type

ftp 10.13.4.105 (this example uses print server

IP address 10.13.4.105)

7. Enter the user name, the default user is

root (if the default password has been changed then

it must also be entered). Press

Enter.

8. Change to binary transfer mode: type

bin and press Enter.

9. Type

hash and press Enter.

10. Use the 'put' command to upload the upgrade file to the flash location:

Type

put 1650_1_00.bin FLASH. A stream of hash marks will appear.

11. You will receive a message stating "Transfer complete. Flash programming finished OK. "

12. The print server will restart in five seconds running the new software.
