3–13 Installing Software Upgrades

Software upgrades may become available during the life of your Scout
camera. The upgrade process requires an SD card loaded with the
upgrade file. After receiving the upgrade file from FLIR, load it onto
your SD card.

Caution!

Use the following procedure to install the upgrade:

1. Ensure that the camera battery is fully charged. (The software

installation will not start if the battery charge is less than 50%.)

2. With the camera off, install the SD card loaded with the upgrade

file. Refer to “SD Card Door” on page 20.

3. Install the Hot Shoe and connect to a power source. Refer to “The

Hot Shoe” on page 23.

4. Turn on the camera. During its Bootup process, the camera will

check the SD card for a valid upgrade file.

5. Watch the display. When a valid file is found, a message will be

shown for about ten seconds directing you to
Press and hold Capture button for 2 seconds to initiate
update
. If you ignore the message, the camera will resume
normal operation and enter the On state.

6. While the message is displayed, press and hold the Capture

button for two seconds. The software upgrade takes about
four minutes. When finished you will see this prompt to restart
the camera. SW Upgraded: Please Shutdown & Restart now.

During a software installation, the camera must remain powered
on. Turning off the camera, or losing power for any reason, may
damage the system files and require that the camera be returned
to the factory for repair.
