concept pro vxm 16 firmware upgrade

[jordanb 0]

Hi

 

I have recently aquired a 16 ch concept pro dvr with a blown psu.

 

After swapping the psu with one from a dedicated micros one (just to check it definately was the psu before purchasing a replacement)

 

I am wondering if anyone has a way to upgrade the firmware on the unit or to put the newer vxh 264's firmware onto the machine? I have asked the question to Videcon tech, but as expected they said no it cannot be done.

 

After reading a previous thread on here I found out that the concept pro recorders share a major similarity with the Vitek eh range of dvrs,

 

http://www.vitekcctv.com/manuals/eh-manual.pdf

 

the remote control is identical, the menu's look to be identical the backup player, the remote viewing screen, infact everything appears to be the same apart from the look of the dvr.

 

On the vitek website it would appear that you can download the firmware for the eh dvr.

 

Does anyone know if I could try putting that firmware on the unit? also how would it be done? ( on the vxm there is a option in the menus for updating firmware, i would think via usb) also how likely is it to go wrong and if it went wrong how straight forward would it be to put the unit back to default (as in a working vxm16)

 

thanks
