(3) Rebooting the camera: Reboot your camera only when the camera soft-
ware has prompted you to do so. The software update will only be effective
after the camera has rebooted. During the reboot, the new software is trans-
ferred from the flash memory to the camera's RAM.
(4) Updating the configuration file: After you have rebooted your camera, you
are prompted to open the page for updating your configuration file. This up-
date is necessary to make sure that all affected sections of the configuration
file are automatically adapted to the new software version.
In order to leave certain parts of the configuration untouched, you can acti-
vate the Everything except the parts checked below option. By default, the
sections

and Networking are already checked and thus will
not
be
replaced. If you are not sure which portions to protect, it is recommended to
activate all checkboxes in order to leave all sections in their current state.
Afterwards, click on Reset to reset the configuration.
(5) Saving the configuration and rebooting the camera: Save your configura-
tion in the camera's flash memory.
After rebooting, the camera is ready for action again.
Finally, check if the camera's current software release version is identical to
the version of the newly loaded update software (Info button (i) in the title
bar).

interrupted
Caution
If an error occurs while updating the camera software, do not reboot,
but restart the update process from step (2).
If this attempt fails, reboot the camera. After rebooting, the camera will
recognize the problem with the failed upload and will boot its backup
operating system and the old configuration. You can now restart the
update process.
Make sure that you restore the browser settings for caching and the
proxy server once you have successfully updated the camera soft-
ware.
You may choose to reset the configuration as a whole, but this
means loosing all previous settings, including the network settings.
