Updating Using the
NetPilot
This is the most convenient method for updating AXIS Network Print 
Server Software. An Installation Wizard is available to guide you 
through the necessary procedures, simply click on the Upgrade icon of 
the AXIS NetPilot™ Toolbar to display the Upgrade Wizard menu. 
Upgrading over the
Network using FTP
To upgrade over the network using FTP you will need the following:
• The file with the new print server software. The name of this file is 
in the form product.version, e.g. 
57m_533.bin
 for software release 
5.33. You may use any of the aforementioned methods to obtain 
the new file. 
• The AXIS 570/670 MIO must also be installed on the network 
with TCP/IP as described in Basic Set Up for TCP/IP, on page 26.
Follow the procedures below to upgrade the AXIS 570/670 MIO:
1. Log in to the AXIS 570/670 MIO with the command 
ftp <host name> 
where <
host name>
 is the name assigned in 
your system host table.
2. You will be prompted for user id and password. Use the user id 
root, which has the default password 
pass 
(
root
 is the user id 
with the highest priority).
3. Issue the command 
binary 
to change to binary transfer mode.
4. Issue the command 
put <software name> flash 
where 
<software name>
 is the name of the new print server software, 
e.g.

minutes. The unit will then automatically restart with the new 
print server software.
