Firmware Update

The Camtraptions PIR Sensor v4 supports firmware updates via microSD card. This allows new features, improvements, and bug fixes to be installed easily by the user without returning the sensor for servicing.

Downloading Firmware

The latest firmware releases can be downloaded from the Camtraptions website:

[camtraptions.com/firmware]

[Each firmware version will include a short description of changes and compatibility notes.]

Preparing the microSD Card

To perform a firmware update, you will need a microSD memory card (not supplied).

• [The card must be formatted in FAT32 and smaller than [X MB / GB] (placeholder for confirmed size limit).]
• Copy the downloaded firmware file directly into the root directory of the card — do not place it inside a folder or rename it.

Installing the Firmware

1. Ensure a fully charged battery is installed in the sensor.
2. Insert the prepared microSD card into the card slot beneath the right-hand flap.
3. [Hold the Down button while switching the sensor on to begin the update process.]
4. [Wait approximately 30 seconds while the firmware uploads.]
5. [When complete, the front LED will blink (placeholder: e.g. five times) to confirm the update has finished successfully.]
6. Remove the microSD card after the update is complete.

Do not remove the battery or power during the update process, as this could interrupt installation and corrupt the firmware.

Verifying the Update

To confirm the update was successful:

1. From the Home Screen, hold the [Right button (verify correct button later — placeholder) for three seconds] to display the firmware version.
2. Check that the displayed version matches the firmware file you installed.

If the version number does not match or the sensor does not boot normally, repeat the update process using a freshly formatted microSD card.
