Appendix C
Updating the Software and
Extending the Memory
The StorPoint CD software stored in
Flash Memory
can easily be
updated over the network using FTP on a TCP/IP network. All
software updates are free of charge.
Obtaining the Updated Software
Over the Internet
You may wish to check the Axis WWW Home Page
http://www.axis.com/
, where you can download the latest versions of
the software. A link to the Axis Web site is available on the StorPoint
CD’s Home Page.
Anonymous FTP
You can also get files and information through anonymous ftp: log in
to
ftp.axis.com
and go to the
/pub/axis
directory.
Your Dealer
Contact your dealer to check if there has been any new issues of the
software. You should have your present version numbers ready to
compare against the latest software issues from Axis.
Flash Memory
The software that runs on your AXIS StorPoint CD is
stored in Flash Memory.
This is a memory chip that,
like ordinary ROM memory, keeps its contents even
when the power is turned off. What makes it unique is
the possibility to erase its contents and write new data
to it. This means that when software updates are
available for your StorPoint CD, you can make use of
them without having to replace any parts. The new
software is simply loaded into the StorPoint CD over the
network.
