Cp Plus Firmware Update -
Q1: How often should I check for a CP Plus firmware update? A: Every 6 months for home users; every 3 months for commercial/enterprise systems.
Q2: Will updating firmware delete my recorded footage? A: No. The HDD video data remains intact. However, settings (like passwords, network config) may reset, so your playback paths remain safe.
Q3: Can I update CP Plus firmware through the mobile app? A: No. The CP Plus Smart or gCMOB apps do not support firmware updates. You must use USB, web browser, or CMS.
Q4: My CP Plus DVR is very old (2015). Should I update? A: Only if you have connectivity issues. Many legacy devices have no new updates. Installing a wrong file will brick it.
Q5: After update, my password doesn't work.
A: Some updates reset security protocols. Use the default password (often admin / 12345 or blank). If locked, use the SADP tool to reset or contact support.
