Upgrade Rayfin Camera ROM & Firmware
The green arrow displayed next to the 2nd Rayfin camera shown in the image below indicates that there is a newer version of Rayfin ROM & Firmware available for this camera.
Use this DVR+O / SCI method below to upgrade Rayfin v4 cameras to newer v4 software versions.
If your Rayfin camera is v3, follow these instructions to upgrade Rayfin Camera v3 to v4
If you are upgrading a Rayfin camera from v3 to v4, before you proceed, make sure the camera is set to DHCP mode. Go to Menu → Rayfin IP Settings and change the camera from Static IP to DHCP.
(If you try to update from v3 to v4 when in Static IP mode, you will get message reminding you to first switch the Rayfin camera to DHCP mode.)
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.
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, their may be an issue with the camera. Below are a few troubleshooting tips to try:
Open Windows command (cmd) window and try to ping the camera’s IP.
