5. Firmware update
You can update the firmware of your base station in two different ways. Please note that with both
methods, the base station settings are retained, so you do not have to reset them.
Updating the base station takes about 3-5 minutes. Do not disconnect the base station
from the power supply during this time!
5.1. Update via server
The base station checks in a 6-hour interval whether a new firmware is available on the firmware server
for the camera and base station. Insert a MicroSD card into your base station so that it can automatically
download the firmware. After the base station has downloaded the firmware, the next time you enter
the advanced settings, a message appears so that you can start updating. The first step is a firmware
update of the base station, which then updates the firmware of the camera automatically.
5.2. Manual update
Alternatively, you can download the latest firmware from the "Downloads" tab on the product website:
www.abus.com/product/Artikelnummer . (Example: www.abus.com/product/PPIC90000)
Copy the two files (rootfs-SMH-T1R.img, rootfs-SMH-T1R.md5) to an empty MicroSD card.
Now disconnect the base station from the socket and insert this MicroSD card into it. Now plug the base
station back into the power socket, the update will now start and can last up to 5 minutes.
The battery cam itself is automatically updated by the base station as soon as the firmware of the base
station has been updated and the base station contains a firmware update for the camera.
5.3. Current firmware version
Some functions for the base station and cameras are only available with the latest firmware version.
Therefore, make sure that your devices are always up to date.
The latest firmware versions can be found on the respective product page:
