HOW TO WRITE FIRMWARE DATA TO CAMERA

- Insert the Micro SD card into the CM-1000 SHIMANO SPORT CAMERA. Note: If the CM-1000 battery level is low, please recharge the battery before updating.
- With the Micro SD card inserted, start the camera by pressing either the Record button or the MODE/Wi-Fi button.
- The firmware will automatically begin updating when the camera starts.
During firmware update, the LED light on the right side of the camera will blink green. The firmware update will take about 15 seconds.
During updates (while the LED is flashing), do not pull out the SD card and do not perform any button operations on the camera.
Note: If the LED light is still flashing after 30 seconds, the update may not have been properly completed due to insufficient battery charge.
In this case, press and hold the MODE and Record buttons simultaneously until the LED lights turns off.
Fully charge the camera. After that, again hold down the mode switch and REC buttons at the same time, reset the camera and update.
- Make sure that the LED light on the right side is off.
- This completes the firmware update. When the update is completed, the camera will turn off. If the firmware update has been properly completed, the file "UPDATE.bin" will automatically be deleted from the root directory of the Micro SD card. The Wi-Fi-setting password will also return to the default setting.

About Digital Camera Firmware:

Updating to a newer firmware version than the one already installed on your camera can improve the device’s overall performance and stability, resolve various issues, and add support for newly developed features or enhance existing ones.

On the other hand, downgrading the camera’s firmware can recover its functionality in the unlikely event the currently installed version is faulty or the device’s performance dropped after an upgrade. However, bear in mind that applying an earlier build might not always be possible.

It is recommended that changing the camera’s firmware be performed when the new release resolves an issue that your device has been encountering, or adds a new feature (or enhances an existing one) that could prove useful for you.

This process isn’t intended to be destructive, but still, it’s best to save all your personal data and configurations before applying a different firmware. Moreover, make sure that the battery is fully charged and don’t use the camera’s buttons while the installation is in progress.

When it comes to the update method, usually, you must copy the firmware file onto a compatible memory card, insert it into the camera, and browse from the menu to the device’s update section.

However, each device has various ways to enter the update mode and particular steps that should be taken for a successful upgrade, therefore make sure you read the product’s installation guide.

That being said, if you consider that this firmware improves your device in any way, then hit the download button and get the desired version; if not, check with our website as often as possible so that you don’t miss the update that will boost your camera’s performance.

  It is highly recommended to always use the most recent driver version available.

Try to set a system restore point before installing a device driver. This will help if you installed an incorrect or mismatched driver. Problems can arise when your hardware device is too old or not supported any longer.
