FIRMWARE RELEASE NOTE ======================== Products affected: Q1615 Mk III Release date: 2021-03-29 Release type: Production Firmware version: 10.4.6 Preceding release: 10.4.5 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Upgrade recommendations ======================== When updating the device, it is recommended to do an intermediate upgrade using an available AXIS OS LTS-release on the way to the desired AXIS OS version. For example, if the device currently is running AXIS OS 7.40 and you want to upgrade to the latest AXIS OS Active Track (Example: 10.1, October 2020) then you should do the upgrade in these steps: 7.40 => 8.40 LTS => 9.80 LTS => 10.1. More detailed recommendations can be found in the AXIS OS portal at https://www.axis.com/support/firmware. Upgrade the firmware according to the instructions given in howtoupgrade.txt, which is included in the firmware folder or according to instructions at https://www.axis.com/support/firmware.
