Next step: Click the green arrow next to the Rayfin camera you wish to update.

The green arrow will change to a spinning loader image as the updater file loads on the Rayfin camera and installs. This process can take up to ~ 5 minutes as the Rayfin version updates and the Rayfin camera reboots.

When complete, you’ll see the Rayfin camera reappear in the list.

If you do not see the Rayfin Camera reappear in the list after ~ 5 minutes, there may be an issue with the camera. Below are a few troubleshooting tips to try:

  1. Open the Windows command (cmd) window

    1. Enter command: arp -a | findstr “58-fc”

      (All Rayfin cameras MAC address start with “58-fc”
