FEATURES

Video recorder creates a Wi-Fi access point. To work with it from your smartphone, use the official application Yi Dash Cam. Through the application, you can change the settings; view, download, delete recorded video; Watch live streaming from the camera.Forumsavagemessiahzine.com>>, Google play>>, App Store>>. The default password for connecting to Wi-Fi is 1234567890.

In the application on the smartphone video is broadcast over Wi-Fi in a highly compressed form. To view high-quality video, you need to download the file from the DVR. When watching videos on a computer or a smartphone, the image quality depends on the performance of the device, the program used, the settings. To assess the quality of the video is better to watch on the big screen with Full HD resolution.

The CA version (gray C10 (YCS.1015)) hasWEB interface. You can download and upload files to the DVR.Read more>>

The optics of this DVR has wide viewing angles. And it should be understood that in a standard video picture of 1920 by 1080 pixels is placed objects more than usual. And so the details are smaller, including car numbers. The numbers and letters on them can be disassembled only on closely spaced machines. If you need numbers to be read at a greater distance from the camera, then you need a lens with a smaller viewing angle.Visual scheme>>

Because of the wide angle of view, perspective distortions, distortion, and the fisheye effect also occur. And even on the CA-version with a 6-lens lens distortion is not corrected.

The DVR creates folders on the memory card: Movie with the main video, video segments are placed in the EMR folder when the impact sensor is triggered or the left button is pressed. In the CA version (gray, C10 (YCS.1015)), the Movie_s and EMR_s folders contain reduced copies of the video for previewing, broadcasting via Wi-Fi. Each folder is cyclically overwritten (including EMR). The work log is written to the hidden folder DrivingInfoFile. Sometimes a Photo folder is created. Creating folders Movie_s and EMR_s anywhere in the settings is not disabled.

The space for storing normal and "emergency" records on the memory card is distributed.in the ratio of 7 to 3.

For many owners, the sensitivity of the shock sensor (G-sensor) is too high even if it is set to “Low” in the settings. But it also happensvice versa>>

CK-version (new black model C1A (YCS.1A17)) at the beginning of recording on the memory card immediately reserves space for the entire file. For example, if in the settings the duration of clips is 3 minutes, then all files will be 330 MB in size. And it does not matter if only a few seconds of video is recorded, the file will remain 330 MB in size. For one minute - 110 MB.

In the CA version, the time is automatically synchronized with the smartphone when connected via Wi-Fi. In the CK version, the time can only be set using the buttons through the menu of the recorder itself. And when saving, you will be asked to format the memory card.

The bundled long cable is used only for power and does not contain wires for data transmission. To connect to a computer, you need to use a different cable.

When you turn on the ADAS function, video recording becomes possible at a maximum of 1080p 30 fps.

DVRdo not supportHot Swap (Hot Swap) memory card. You can install or remove the card only when the camera is turned off.

FAQ and GOOD ADVICE

Frequently encountered PROBLEMS

1) If problems, errors disappear when turning on the DVR without a memory card, then it is logical to assume that the problem is in the memory card.)))
Check if the contacts on the memory card are clean. New for the registrar card, it is desirable to format the means of the DVR. If the camera does not turn on with the inserted memory card, you can format it on your computer by selecting the cluster size as 64 KB, the FAT32 file system for a card with a capacity of up to 32 GB, and exFAT for a card larger than 32 GB. If formatting does not fix the problem, try another memory card;

2) If in the car the DVR suddenly turns off, reboots, turns on with a delay. And when connected from a networked smartphone or an external battery and another cable, it works stably, the problem is in the car power adapter, cable or cigarette lighter socket.
Unfortunately, the quality of the supplied power adapter is unpredictable. In winter in the cold with him are oftenProblems. It is advisable to replace with another. Due to the long cable length, the voltage may drop above the permissible value. Check the outlet in the car - voltage, contacts. There may also be a problem with the battery of the DVR;

3) If, after turning off the power, the DVR turns off instantly, without a 10-second pause, for correct completion of the recording. This may damage the memory card. Or, with external power off, the DVR will not turn on with the right button. Or permanently reset the set time. Then you need to replace the battery in the DVR.
Links to stores with a suitable size and battery connector is in this thread. How to disassemble the DVR can be viewed in the sectionUseful>>;

4) If the lens glass is clean and the image on the video of the objects in front of the car is blurred even in good light. It is necessary to disassemble the DVR and manually adjust the focus by rotating the lens.
Unfortunately, the wrong focus in the production of Yi is not uncommon. There is no autofocus in the DVR, the focus is fixed and it is not fixed by the firmware. How to disassemble and configure can be viewed in the sectionUseful>>. Also the focus can "float away"in the heat>>. Then you need to disassemble the DVR and change the "holder", the lens holder;

5) If the application on the smartphone while working with the DVR loses touch. That is necessary to deal with the settings of your smartphone.
When connected to a DVR Wi-Fi smartphone does not have access to the Internet through this network. And it can automatically switch to another available Wi-Fi network. For example, to your router. Or switch to a mobile network disconnecting from Wi-Fi. Before connecting to the DVR, it is desirable to disable Mobile data transfer and Bluetooth to eliminate interference.One way to fix the problem>>;

6) Connection problem in iOS app.

FIRMWARE

Important !Having made a decision on flashing your device, please evaluate all possible risks ...
All responsibility in case of unsuccessful firmware lies only on you, no one forces you to do this.

The recorder can be used quite simply on any stock firmware with any interface language ...


Important !Recorders of a stripped-down version of the latest editions with serial numbersCK40AH ...and basic firmwareV-1.04.01a
At the moment, neither official firmware from the YI site nor custom ones from our theme are being flashed !!!
Restore serial number recordersCK40AH ...in its original state after such firmware is currently impossible!
The firmware files for this recorder are not freely available ...

Memo on recorder firmware

Existing YI Smart Dash Camera Versions :

Full featured version- color of the front panel is gray or gold (serial numbers start on CA ...) ;
trimmed version- color of the front panel is black (serial numbers start on CC ... and SC ...)

Full featured versionmay have official firmware with Chinese (CN), English (US) or Russian (RU) interface;
a stripped-down version with serial numbers on the CC ...It has official firmware only with Chinese (CN) interface;
a stripped-down version with serial numbers on CK ...has official firmware with Chinese (CN), English (US),but not flashed with custom firmware from this theme

Re-flashing recorders to another interface language:

Full version recorders are being flashed to any interface language..
Reduced version loggers (serial numbers start on CC ...) can only be flashed oncustom Russian firmware from AS2107or atCN firmware with increased bitrate(firmware with English interface does not exist).

The main conditions for successful flashing:
1. The firmware file must have the same localization as the registrar serial number.
(for example for firmware recorder with serial number CA31AHCNCR1745, firmware should be with the same localizationCN- for example, V-1.03.026-CN).
2.The firmware files must match the registrar revision.:
The firmware files are divided into two groups of compatible firmware (depending on their revision - displayed in the designation of serial numbers):
1 group- recorders with serial numbers:[CA21L = CA21W = CA18L = CA21B];
2 group- recorders with serial numbers[CABAA = CA31A = CABAC].
Those. firmware must be downloaded in accordance with its serial number (group of compatible firmware).
Failure to comply with these conditions will result in a non-working ("ripped") registrar.


Based on these conditions, at the moment there are two ways of flashing this recorder to another interface language:

1.Localization firmware (CN or US) in serial number, which will correspond to the localization of the new firmware.
2. Firmware without changing localization (CN or US) in the serial number, this method installs English firmware V-1.03.027-CN
and Russian-language firmware V-1.03.032-CN / US, V-1.03.226-CN / US.

First wayIt was used mainly in the English version of firmware, it is more difficult to implement, if used incorrectly, it leads to a "stable checkup" of the recorder and the impossibility of its recovery at the program level (you must use the usb-uart adapter).
(The Russification of firmware by this method is not recommended at the moment - a very high percentage of scaling ...)

Second wayMost relevant when installing russified firmware, gives almost 100% guarantee of successful firmware.

Immediately before the firmware:
- Make sure that the firmware file is not broken, the correct format and size
- Make sure that the used memory card with the volume of 8 -128 GB, at least class 10 and in working condition, formatting - FAT32, 64kb cluster
(manufacturer's recommendation).

Recommended In order to avoid registrar "turning around" the registrar, switch to Russian-language firmware using the method without changing the serial number!.

Memory cards

Memory Cards for the Registrar

This DVR is very picky about the characteristics of the memory card. And an inexpensive Chinese card of a not-so-well-known brand of the usual Class 10 with a sequential data write speed of 10 MB / s can work for a long time without any problems. And from a well-known company with a speed class of UHS U1, U3 - 30 MB / s can cause problems. In the most difficult case for the card, recording when using modified firmware with an increased bit rate of 30 Mbps = 3.75 MB / s of the main video, plus 0.23 MB / s of reduced video for previewing, broadcasting via Wi-Fi, plus recording and reading service information. The speed of the 10th grade card is enough. But for simultaneous recording / reading of several data streams, the value of IOPS (the number of I / O operations per second), the speed of random writing, and reading a memory card is important. This is determined by classes A1 and A2, but usually the manufacturer does not indicate this information.
Alas, you may have to try several memory cards until you get the right one. But when buying a new one, it is advisable to choose a card with a UHS-I mark (U1, U3) and 32 GB or more. Since the number of write cycles to the memory card is limited. The smaller the capacity of the card, the earlier it will fail. There are many topics on the forum thread.examplessuitable memory cards. Use the search on the topic - the input field at the top or bottom of the page.

comparison with Xiaomi YI Action Camera

DashРЎam - 3 Mpix sensor (presumably), and for ActionCam - 16 Mpix, that is, with similar dimensions of sensors 1 / 2.7 and 1 / 2.8, DashCam has a pixel size of 3.0 * 3.0 Ојm, against 1.12 Ојm Г— 1.12 Ојm for ActionCam. Thus, for every pixel, DashРЎam gets more light than ActionCam. Apparently from here and the declared sensitivity of the sensor DashSam 4 Volts / Lux-sec. If the DashSam sensor is true 3 megapixels, then to the pluses, in addition to the relatively high sensitivity, you can add the absence of moire on the video. The downside of such a sensor would be a low resolution of photos, if the photo mode is in the recorder at all.

DashCam has a lens aperture of 1.8, and ActionCam has a 2.8, that is, a DashCam lens transmits more than 2 times more light than an ActionCam lens. The drawback of such a lens may be a slight reduction in the depth of the sharply displayed space, i.e. When the lens is set to hyperfocal at the factory, the “sharpness” of the DashSam will start a little further than that of the ActionCam, for example, 0.5-1m from the camera lens. In fact, this is not a minus, rather a feature, the focus on the drops on the windshield and on the hood is hardly anyone needs, but from the hood to infinity, it should be.

The range of recording formats for DashSam is more modest than that of ActionCam. According to offsite of a format of only 3. It is not necessary to think that 2304 * 1296 * 30 is worse, than 1920 * 1080 * 60. Exposure and frame rate are two different things. With sufficient light, frame clarity (readability of numbers) will be higher at a resolution of 2304 * 1296 30k / s. At 1920 * 1080, 60k / s will be smoother video, especially useful if you slow down later. The bitrate of 9-14 mb / s and 15-20 mb / s does not provide the maximum quality of shooting. But this is the optimal solution to ensure maximum compatibility with any class10 memory card, as well as save space on the memory card. The official ActionCam firmware is limited to about the same video bitrate. This is enough for most common tasks, and for enthusiasts, craftsmen wrote down custom firmware and scripts with a higher bit rate. Most likely, such solutions will appear for this DashSam camera, if it is popular enough. If the real shooting in low light (indoors) is at a decent level, this DVR will probably be interested in any videographers, because the external microUSB power supply from any PowerBank.

As it helps you, the holder holds the lenses for optimal focus that you have already held.
The next step is more likely to replace the recorder, because the photo matrix is ​​unlikely to be soldered.

This does not say anything.
It was you who did not flash it, but the seller could also have been wise.

Guys, it seemed to me, or is it really on the firmware with a bit rate of 30mbits more zeros the picture?

[MustanG!]

*** dronych ***,The firmware in this case will not help. You have a defective display, only the replacement of the screen will help. If you have the skills, try disassembling the recorder and reconnecting the screen loop.

[*** dronych ***]

It is a pity, the cable has reconnected, it did not help! As the slide show continues to show!

[MustanG!]

*** dronych ***,because this nuance does not affect the shooting of video, it remains to use it. Put the display off after 1 minute so as not to hurt his eyes))) Or, look at Ali displayby part number.

[Iyurii]

MustanG! @ 03.11.19, 03:14

Or look for ali display on the part number.

The display is a matrix with signal lines horizontally and vertically, defects - stripes, spots, violation of color rendition.
You are breeding a client to replace the display, which is unlikely to help. Violation of synchronization, it is already to the source of the signals displayed on the screen.

[MustanG!]

IyuriiYou argue theoretically, but in practice I had exactly the same problem that I decided to replace the display.
In another, exactly the same registrar, the defective display showed a slide show in the same way.

serega1715,
And why is he even in BP, if the application is all in Russian and with additional settings?

THE LINEUP

CompanyYI Technologyproduces several models with different hardware modifications in externally similar cases.

All DVRs are able to automatically turn on when external power is applied, they record quite high-quality (for their price) video in H.264 / AVC format with sound. With cyclic overwriting on a microSDHC memory card, microSDXC (tested up to 128 GB inclusive). Have a non-touch screen 2.7 ", 960 x 240 pixels., The ability to connect from a smartphone via Wi-Fi (2.4 GHz, 802.11n). They contain a shock sensor (G-sensor) to record" emergency "video and dimples, bumps on the road. GPS module - no. Motion sensor - no.

DVR Models

1) Model: C10 (YCS.1015). Has serial numbers starting with CA ... Onofficial website (CN|Ru) is called "YI Smart Dash Camera", in the forum thread there is a gray, full, full-featured, normal version. Officially sold in Russia and the most "advanced" model presented. It has a white-gold or black case with a gray-silver front panel. Novatek NT96660 dual core processor (marketing name Yi A12). Supports, among other things, recording modes 1920x1080 60 fps and interpolated 2304x1296 30 fps. It has little use ADAS function and the ability to show the clock as a screen saver on the screen. The viewing angle of the lens is 165 В° diagonal, the aperture is f / 1.8, 6 lenses + IR filter;

2) Model: C12 (YCS.1216). It has serial numbers starting with CC ... Discontinued, not on the official website. The forum thread is often referred to as a black, truncated, simplified version. Old model of the DVR in a completely black case. Version for the Chinese market. It has a single-core processor Novatek NT96658. Able to shoot a maximum with a resolution of 1920x1080 30 fps. The viewing angle of the lens is 130 В° diagonal, the aperture is f / 1.8, 4 lenses + IR filter;

3) Model: C1A (YCS.1A17). Has serial numbers starting with CK ... Onofficial website (CN) is called "YI Compact Dash Camera". The new model of the DVR in a completely black case. Created on a platform with a dual core processor (SoC) JL AC54N (AC1739AP, AC1740AP ... on the chip) of the companyZhuHai JieLi Technology Co., Ltd. Able to record the maximum resolution of Full HD 1080p 30 fps. The viewing angle of the lens is 130 В° diagonal, the aperture is f / 2.0, 4 lenses + IR filter.

FEATURES

Video recorder creates a Wi-Fi access point. To work with it from your smartphone, use the official application Yi Dash Cam. Through the application, you can change the settings; view, download, delete recorded video; Watch live streaming from the camera.Forumsavagemessiahzine.com>>, Google play>>, App Store>>. The default password for connecting to Wi-Fi is 1234567890.

In the application on the smartphone video is broadcast over Wi-Fi in a highly compressed form. To view high-quality video, you need to download the file from the DVR. When watching videos on a computer or a smartphone, the image quality depends on the performance of the device, the program used, the settings. To assess the quality of the video is better to watch on the big screen with Full HD resolution.

The CA version (gray C10 (YCS.1015)) hasWEB interface. You can download and upload files to the DVR.Read more>>

The optics of this DVR has wide viewing angles. And it should be understood that in a standard video picture of 1920 by 1080 pixels is placed objects more than usual. And so the details are smaller, including car numbers. The numbers and letters on them can be disassembled only on closely spaced machines. If you need numbers to be read at a greater distance from the camera, then you need a lens with a smaller viewing angle.Visual scheme>>

Because of the wide angle of view, perspective distortions, distortion, and the fisheye effect also occur. And even on the CA-version with a 6-lens lens distortion is not corrected.

The DVR creates folders on the memory card: Movie with the main video, video segments are placed in the EMR folder when the impact sensor is triggered or the left button is pressed. In the CA version (gray, C10 (YCS.1015)), the Movie_s and EMR_s folders contain reduced copies of the video for previewing, broadcasting via Wi-Fi. Each folder is cyclically overwritten (including EMR). The work log is written to the hidden folder DrivingInfoFile. Sometimes a Photo folder is created. Creating folders Movie_s and EMR_s anywhere in the settings is not disabled.

The space for storing normal and "emergency" records on the memory card is distributed.in the ratio of 7 to 3.

For many owners, the sensitivity of the shock sensor (G-sensor) is too high even if it is set to “Low” in the settings. But it also happensvice versa>>

CK-version (new black model C1A (YCS.1A17)) at the beginning of recording on the memory card immediately reserves space for the entire file. For example, if in the settings the duration of clips is 3 minutes, then all files will be 330 MB in size. And it does not matter if only a few seconds of video is recorded, the file will remain 330 MB in size. For one minute - 110 MB.

In the CA version, the time is automatically synchronized with the smartphone when connected via Wi-Fi. In the CK version, the time can only be set using the buttons through the menu of the recorder itself. And when saving, you will be asked to format the memory card.

The bundled long cable is used only for power and does not contain wires for data transmission. To connect to a computer, you need to use a different cable.

When you turn on the ADAS function, video recording becomes possible at a maximum of 1080p 30 fps.

DVRdo not supportHot Swap (Hot Swap) memory card. You can install or remove the card only when the camera is turned off.

MEMORY CARDS

This DVR is very picky about the characteristics of the memory card. And an inexpensive Chinese card of a not-so-well-known brand of the usual Class 10 with a sequential data write speed of 10 MB / s can work for a long time without any problems. And from a well-known company with a speed class of UHS U1, U3 - 30 MB / s can cause problems. In the most difficult case for the card, recording when using modified firmware with an increased bit rate of 30 Mbps = 3.75 MB / s of the main video, plus 0.23 MB / s of reduced video for previewing, broadcasting via Wi-Fi, plus recording and reading service information. The speed of the 10th grade card is enough. But for simultaneous recording / reading of several data streams, the value of IOPS (the number of I / O operations per second), the speed of random writing, and reading a memory card is important. This is determined by classes A1 and A2, but usually the manufacturer does not indicate this information.
Alas, you may have to try several memory cards until you get the right one. But when buying a new one, it is advisable to choose a card with a UHS-I mark (U1, U3) and 32 GB or more. Since the number of write cycles to the memory card is limited. The smaller the capacity of the card, the earlier it will fail. There are many topics on the forum thread.examplessuitable memory cards. Use the search on the topic - the input field at the top or bottom of the page.

Theme about memory cards
H2testw- A program to check for defective blocks, determine the real volume and speed of a memory card.
Crystaldiskmark- A program to check the speed of sequential and random read / write to one and several threads.

Important!A message on the screen that a class 10 card is needed and the impossibility of rewriting may appear due to problems with the power supply of the DVR. Example:1 >>, 2 >>

PROBLEMS

1) If problems, errors disappear when turning on the DVR without a memory card, then it is logical to assume that the problem is in the memory card.)))
Check if the contacts on the memory card are clean. New for the registrar card, it is desirable to format the means of the DVR. If the camera does not turn on with the inserted memory card, you can format it on your computer by selecting the cluster size as 64 KB, the FAT32 file system for a card with a capacity of up to 32 GB, and exFAT for a card larger than 32 GB. If formatting does not fix the problem, try another memory card;

2) If in the car the DVR suddenly turns off, reboots, turns on with a delay. And when connected from a networked smartphone or an external battery and another cable, it works stably, the problem is in the car power adapter, cable or cigarette lighter socket.
Unfortunately, the quality of the supplied power adapter is unpredictable. In winter in the cold with him are oftenProblems. It is advisable to replace with another. Due to the long cable length, the voltage may drop above the permissible value. Check the outlet in the car - voltage, contacts. There may also be a problem with the battery of the DVR;

3) If, after turning off the power, the DVR turns off instantly, without a 10-second pause, for correct completion of the recording. This may damage the memory card. Or, with external power off, the DVR will not turn on with the right button. Or permanently reset the set time. Then you need to replace the battery in the DVR.
Links to stores with a suitable size and battery connector is in this thread. How to disassemble the DVR can be viewed in the sectionUseful>>;

4) If the lens glass is clean and the image on the video of the objects in front of the car is blurred even in good light. It is necessary to disassemble the DVR and manually adjust the focus by rotating the lens.
Unfortunately, the wrong focus in the production of Yi is not uncommon. There is no autofocus in the DVR, the focus is fixed and it is not fixed by the firmware. How to disassemble and configure can be viewed in the sectionUseful>>. Also the focus can "float away"in the heat>>. Then you need to disassemble the DVR and change the "holder", the lens holder;

5) If the application on the smartphone while working with the DVR loses touch. That is necessary to deal with the settings of your smartphone.
When connected to a DVR Wi-Fi smartphone does not have access to the Internet through this network. And it can automatically switch to another available Wi-Fi network. For example, to your router. Or switch to a mobile network disconnecting from Wi-Fi. Before connecting to the DVR, it is desirable to disable Mobile data transfer and Bluetooth to eliminate interference.One way to fix the problem>>;

6) Connection problem in iOS app.

FIRMWARE

If you come to the conclusion that the problem is still due to the firmware. And the reset button on the right of the DVR did not fix the problem. Or you do not have enough Russian or English in the application on the phone. And you need it in the recorder menu. Or do you want to improve the recording quality a bit by increasing the video bitrate. A decrease in the resource (life expectancy) of the memory card does not bother you. Then you need to figure out what kind of firmware is suitable for your model.

Serial numbers

What useful is the serial numberCK11HHUSBR1747F92559:

[CK]11HHUSBR1747F92559 is a version of the DVR. CA, CC or CK;
CK11HH[US]BR1747F92559 - localization. CN - for the Chinese market, RU - for Russia, JP - for Japan, US - other countries;
CK11HHUSBR[1747]F92559 - the number of the year and week of production. 2017, 47th week;
CK11HHUSBR1747[F92559]- the last three bytes of the MAC address of the Wi-Fi module. For CK version - 10: A4: BE: F9: 25: 59.

Important!Due to the actions of the previous owner of your DVR, or the seller, or due to an error in production, the actual serial number of the camera may not correspond to that indicated on the case or package. If the DVR is turned on, the serial number should be viewed on the screen - the last icon in the menu of the DVR � ("i" or "!" In the circle).

INSTRUCTIONS FOR FIRMWARE

Important!Having made a decision on flashing the DVR, please evaluate all possible risks. All responsibility in case of unsuccessful firmware lies only on you, no one forces you to do it!

The forum contains information about the firmware of the DVR to change the interface language with a preliminary change of the serial number. At the moment, this method is not relevant. It is better not to use it!

When connecting a DVR with a memory card to a computer, use a cable from a smartphone, tablet, or other to record the firmware file. The bundled long cable is used only for power and does not contain wires for data transmission.

Firmware files with the name firmware.bin, C1A_FW.bin are usually used to update a normally working DVR. With the name FWCARC10.bin, FWCARC12.bin, restorea.bin - to restore a non-starting DVR. The firmware files for one group of serial numbers are the same, the only difference is in the name. If necessary, the file can simply be renamed.

Firmware file FWCARC10.bin, FWCARC12.bin, restorea.bin

1) In the root of the disk without a memory card for the DVR, place the firmware file with the name FWCARC10.bin, FWCARC12.bin or restorea.bin;
2) Move this memory card to the DVR turned off (or turn off the DVR with the card from the computer);
3) Supply power from the network charger of a smartphone, tablet or car adapter. But not from the USB port of the computer, the car stereo;
4) Do not press any buttons, do not turn off the power. During the flashing process, the red indicator usually lights up and the yellow indicator flashes. After 1-2 minutes, the camera usually starts automatically;
5) Format the memory card in the DVR or another way to delete the firmware file.

Firmware file firmware.bin, C1A_FW.bin

1) Place the firmware file named firmware.bin or C1A_FW.bin into the root of the disk without a memory card for the DVR;
2) Move this memory card to the DVR turned off (or turn off the DVR with the card from the computer);
3) Supply power from the network charger of a smartphone, tablet or car adapter. But not from the USB port of the computer, the car stereo;
4) When displaying a notification on the screen, confirm with the right button (Settings / Power) to start the firmware update process (firmware);
5) Do not press any buttons, do not turn off the power. In the process of updating the firmware, the red and yellow indicators are usually lit, a picture with a cloud is displayed on the screen;
6) After 2-3 minutes, the DVR usually automatically restarts, the firmware file from the memory card is deleted.
