UPGRADE INSTRUCTIONS
====================
         

1.  Ensure that active applications (e.g. event based or continuous 
    video transmission from the AXIS Video Server) are disabled prior 
    to initiating the upgrade.

2.  Be sure to take a careful note of your application/layout and other 
    settings, prior to upgrading, since these settings will be 
    lost during the upgrade. 

3.  You must be at the command prompt and in the directory that 
    contains the upgrade file.
    Example: C:\Axis\2400p\3_02>

4.  From the command prompt, open an FTP connection to the unit you 
    wish to upgrade. (Do not use Windows-based FTP-programs for this 
    purpose - use only command line FTP programs!)

5.  Log in as root. The default password for the root user is "pass", 
    unless this has been changed by the user. You must be logged in 
    as the root user to upgrade the unit.

6.  Change to binary transfer mode by typing "bin" and press enter.

7.  Type "hash" and press enter. (This will allow you to see how the 
    upgrade progresses)

8.  Type the command "put XXX.bin flash_all" where XXX.bin is the name 
    of the upgrade file you downloaded (and maybe decompressed) from 
    our site. This file is typically named 2400p_302.bin or axis2400p.bin. 

9.  Wait for the flash load to complete which may take 1-10 minutes.
   
10. After the upgrade has completed, the unit will automatically restart 
    and show a steady green on the Power and Status LED:s and flashing 
    green on the Network LED. 

11. Reconfigure your settings.


RELEASE 3.02
============

New in 3.02:
=============

3.02:1 Implementation of new image resolution, 2CIF (704x240 - NTSC or 
       704x288 - PAL). 2CIF has same number of lines as CIF, but twice 
       the number of pixels per line. The image is re-scaled to 4CIF 
       in the viewer, which eliminates interlace problems, but reduces 
       image quality when compared to 4CIF.  

3.02:2 Half-size image option now available in the Application wizard.


Corrections in 3.02 since 3.01
==============================

3.02:3 When using an alarm application for all four alarm inputs for 
       long periods, the alarm application could stop working.
       This problem is now corrected.

3.02:4 Robustness of the FTP application is improved
       
3.02:5 The delta time between images no longer wraps around one second. 
       The problem appeared when there was more than one second between 
       images.

3.02:6 A Time stamp is added in the jpeg header.


Application developer / scripting in 3.02
=========================================

3.02:7 Ash shell is used for embedded scripting (in AXIS 2400 Video Server, 
mish shell was used)

The following HTTP API groups are supported by the AXIS 2400+. For more 
information please check the HTTP API document available at www.axis.com.

Known limitations:
==================

L1. The text overlay will be distorted in 2CIF due to the fact that every 
    other line in the image is removed and re-scaled.
