Make sure that the file has been transferred completely. The table at the end contains the file size and MD5 checksum for the download file. 3. Make sure that the camera fulfills the requirements listed above. Check the information under "Admin Menu > Hardware and Release Information" on the camera. 4. Make sure that you are connected directly to the camera, without any proxy server in-between. Disable any proxy servers. Microsoft Internet Explorer: "Tools > Internet Options > Connections (tab) > Settings (in LAN Settings) > Proxy Server". 5. Restart the camera. 6. Log onto the camera as administrator, open "Admin Menu > Upload system Software" and read the Important Notes. Select the file MX_system_xx_3_5223r3.mpl and start the upload. CAUTION: - Never disrupt the procedure while the camera is uploading or rewriting its flash memory. If this has happened anyhow, the camera will automatically boot the backup system (the title bar in the browser interface is red). The backup system only allows updating the system software. - The upload procedure may take several minutes, and up to 30 minutes when using an ISDN connection. - The camera LEDs will show a specific pattern while uploading. Please read the manual for the meaning. - During the procedure, the browser windows may not be updated properly. 7. Upon completion of the upload, the camera will display a message. Read this message carefully. 8. If the upload has finished successfully, restart the camera. If the upload was not successful, do not reboot the camera. Restart the upload process and wait until the upload has finished successfully. If the camera detects a faulty operating system, it will boot its backup operating system (the title bar in the browser interface is red); in this case, you should update the system software again. 9. The settings of the camera will remain intact during and after the update. It is recommended, however, to reset certain parts of the configuration to the factory defaults, while keeping the other parts of the current configuration. If conflicts are detected while opening camera pages, warning messages will inform you about these conflicts. When resetting the configuration to factory defaults, the network, audio, and security settings should not be reset to factory defaults as this may render the camera unreachable. * Files-Overview Bytes md5sum Name -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 11533825 3bbd38857724c11de67bf3eb72952363 MX_system_de_3_5223r3.mpl 10759681 bcb04480a4f2142b261e2544881809aa MX_system_cn_3_5223r3.mpl 11296257 ad7db892d65a35d1694fbb428f8d9b82 MX_system_fr_3_5223r3.mpl 11656705 8d18446f5c5fb6bc0cfc89c7ecbcfeaa MX_system_it_3_5223r3.mpl 10968577 dab420a32146c7a32f1bd6e0a9e30029 MX_system_jp_3_5223r3.mpl 11550209 e576186db5722b7e290c723ac782d3cf MX_system_es_3_5223r3.mpl 10489345 9cd5b04b56c11d67b8d529927cce11a9 MX_system_ru_3_5223r3.mpl
