– many bug fixes – software watchdog – 576p support
Firmware installation E110/E112/E120
Please follow the installation guide line in the E110 manual (manual 1.8.300 on page 44). Please install downloaded zip file on USB memory device. Unzip this file. Insert USB memory device in E110. Use /api/upgrade or the web GUI to upgrade the firmware. Do not power down the E110 while the upgrade process is ongoing. Wait until the http request completes. Then perform a cold reboot of the system, to activate the new firmware.
Attention: an upgrade sets resets the E110 back to the default configuration. So all settings stored in the config file have to be set again. A copy of the config file is saved to USB memory device during boot up.
Firmware installation E10/E12/E20
These system normally do not provide a USB port. Please use the FTP client FileZilla to download the firmware by FTP (user: ftp, password: ftp). Please transfer it to the FTP home directory (/home/ftp). Next use the web GUI to install the firmware. Choose “FTP” as source. Wait until the upgrade has completed. Then erase the uploaded firmware file, to free up the space. Next restart the system (power off and on).
