2. Key Steps after Downloading the Firmware

If the firmware you downloaded is 30.7.0.XX or 4X.7.0.XX, you can skip this part and directly go to 3.Upgrade Steps, otherwise please read below steps carefully.

Step1: If the current firmware version of your camera is above XX.5.0.85, like 10.5.0.89 or 20.5.0.90, you can go to 3.Upgrade Steps and upgrade your camera directly;

Step2: If the current firmware version of your camera is below XX.5.0.85, like 10.5.0.73 or 20.5.0.80, you should change the name of the firmware you downloaded according to the table below;

Take MS-C2651-PM for example:

Step1: According to the table above, it matches with MS-C2XXX, so we should download MSFImage_10.5.0.110_896a6b5b first.

Step2:

1) Suppose that the firmware version of this camera is XX.5.0.87 before upgrading, we can directly upgrade it according to 3.Upgrade Steps;

2) Suppose that the firmware version of this camera is XX.5.0.79, we should change the name of the firmware we downloaded. According to Table2, MS-C2651-PM belongs to model MS-C26XX and matches with 11.X.X.XX. So we need to change MSFImage_10.5.0.110-r11_2e653e10 into MSFImage_11.5.0.110-r11_2e653e10

3. Upgrade Steps

Please check each model with right firmware version as mentioned above , then upgrade the firmware according to the following steps:

Step1: Go to the web of IP Camera, click “Configuration” -> “Maintenance” -> “Upgrade Firmware”

Step2: Browse and select files for the upgrade.

Step3: Click the “Upgrade” button and a progress bar will pop up, wait for about 1-3 minutes until it reaches 100%. After that, the system will reboot, and the firmware upgrade successfully.

Step4: Use Milesight Smart Tools to search out this camera according to its MAC address, and then change its IP into your local IP address. (The IP address will be kept after upgrading if the firmware versions are after XX.4.0.52).
