IPC-T5442T-ZE IPC-T5442TM-AS IPC-T5842T-ZE SMD 3.0 Smart IR Latest New Firmware From EmpireTech

Successfully updated a IPC-T5442TM-AS from "V2.820.15OG001.0.R, Build Date: 2021-05-25" to "V2.840.15OG00D.0.R, Build Date: 2022-08-18". This version fixed a bug I encountered where the image quality would get worse when smart plan is set to IVS and at least 1 IVS rule is active. This bug also happens to my other cameras running versions 2020-10-19 and 2020-12-03.

Today I updated my IPC-T5442T-ZE from V2.820.150G001.0.R, Build Date: 2021-07-06 to: V2.840.150GOOD.O.R.220818
Update was successful, I even forgot to set one camera to the default settings, which caused no problem!
 
I am new to this forum and have recently gotten some IPC-T5442TM-AS with firmware ENG-PN_V2.820.15OG001.0.R20210706.
I am a bit confused about the comments re. FW V2.840, dated 20220818
Additionally, I downloaded "No smart IR_IPC-HX5XXX-Volt_MultiLang_PN_Stream3_V2.840.0000000.25.R.230425.bin" which is even newer.
Please, can you give me any recommendations which version to update to?
 
Yes, if want smart IR, that is the one.
 
I just updated my IPC-T5442T-ZEB from version 2.820.15OG001.0R to General_IPC-HX5XXX-Volt_MultiLang_PN_Stream3_V2.840.0000000.26.R.231221. However after the upgrade the ConfigTool does not show the correct model anymore, it now shows "IP Camera" in stead. Is there anyway to fix this?

Did you try resetting to factory and power cycling the camera a few times?

I don't see the model name in the web interface either so my guess it that it's gone.
 
sorry for the nuisance but is the new firmware uploaded on the first page of this forum post by Andy?
This is Andy's Thread, he controls the first and all his post.
