SymDec 16+4 (14.6MB) - V1.60c This is the latest upgrade for the SymDec 16 plus 4 digital recording device. This zip file contains one firmware upgrade file. You need to extract this file to a PC. Once it is extracted you can then copy the flash file you need to the USB drive used to perform the flash upgrade. If you want to keep a history of flash files create a folder with the correct version name and move existing files to that folder before extracting or moving. CAUTION: Please check the firmware version currently installed on your SymDec16Plus4. This can be found in the menu under "Info", then "System". If the version shown is 1.19L, download the version 1.25 firmware file below and upgrade with this version first. Once the upgrade to version 1.25 is complete you can upgrade to the latest version. http://www.utcfssecurityproductspages.eu/videoupgrades/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
