Hikvision 5.1.5 upgrade to 5.3.0

[sanatisharif 0]

Hi,

Excuse me if my English in bad,

 

I have a Hikvision DS-2DF5274 camera (IP & PTZ) :

 

Model	DS-2DF5274-A3
Serial No.	DS-2DF5274-A320130311BBWR418071537B
Firmware Version	V5.1.5 build 140305
Encoding Version	V5.6 build 140228

 

I want to upgrade my cam to V5.3.0 but I can't, can any body help me ?

I download firmware from this link :

http://www.hikvision.com/en/us/download_more.asp?id=1508

 

The following methods I tried , but failed .

 

1. GUI upgare will be failed ( Upgrading failed ).

 

2. tftp ( and auto upgrade hik tools ) didn't work.

( can't detect camera when I reboot it )

 

3. run tftp server and connect to cam with telnet and run this command:

tftp -r digicap.dav -g 192.0.0.128

Error: not space ...

 

Best Regards,

suppose I have firmware file on ftp server or tftp server

and I wan't do every step manually.

 

Thanks?

Hi,

 

Why do you want to upgrade?

 

Telnet is a sharp-tool. Like any sharp-tool, if you don't know what you are doing it's easy to have your eye out.

 

If you brick it using Telnet, then chances are, it's unbrickable, unlike TFTP which you can recover from.

 

Cheers,

P.S. 5.1.5 is better in my opinion than 5.3 anyway
