Description

FW v.1.0.9.0 & v1.5.3.6

Model: ALL DW-VA1G4 & DW-VG4


Tech support is having an issue completing the recovery firmware process.

Is the recovery process the same as A1 Plus & IP Plus?

Can you send instructions if the process has changed.

confirmed fixed.

Thank you

tested with (2) usbs. 1 worked. 1 did not.

Same size. Same format.

일단 Recovery FW 파일이 깨졌을 가능성이 있어보여..

똑같은 파일을 다시 압축해서 첨부했으니 확인 바랍니다.

Still having an issue with the recovery FW.

  1. USB file system = FAT32

  2. renamed the folder to what worked with previous version and the name used in the original email.

  3. Also I tested with a singlar file on the USB drive.

  4. I tried both front and back USB slots.

After renaming the file and removing v1.5.3.6, it works fine.

  1. FAT32 파일시스템

  2. 폴더명을 변경하지 말고 아래와 같이 유지. (첨부파일에는 recovery_files v1.5.3.6 폴더로 되어있음)

The DVR recovery FW is okay.

We aren’t able to run recovery on NVR. When the drive is connected the unit reboots normally.

NVR 과 DVR은 복구 파일이 다릅니다. (David 에게 확인바랍니다.)

그리고 복구파일 발행 당시 FW버전으로 업그레이드 될것이며, 설정값은 초기화 되지 않습니다.

단, NVR 같은 경우 복구파일 목록에 07_recovery_file.ap 와 07_recovery_file.ap.crc 파일이 존재하면 설정값도 초기화 됩니다.

When the DVR is successfully recovered will it factory reset? Will it still be on v1.0.9.0 and not downgraded to previous v1.0.8.0 like the NVR does?

TS is still having an issue with NVR recovery. I ran a test with all 3 models and it was unsuccessful. This is what TS is currently using. Can you check if the file is correct?

현스펙입니다.

DVR계열은 Recovery 후 두번쨰 Beep 2번 울리고 나면 수동으로 리부팅 해줘야 합니다.

NVR계열은 Recovery 후 자동으로 리부팅됩니다.
