Equipment upgrading method and equipment upgrading device

Abstract

The invention provides an equipment upgrading method. The equipment upgrading method comprises the following steps that: scanning terminal equipment obtains a two-dimensional code corresponding to software to be upgraded; the software to be upgraded is used for software upgrading of N first equipment; the two-dimensional code is obtained by sharing of second equipment; N is an integer more than or equal to 1; the second equipment and first equipment to be upgraded are same in type; furthermore, the version number of current software of the second equipment is the version number of the software to be upgraded of the first equipment to be upgraded; the scanning terminal equipment analyzes URL (Uniform Resource Locator) path information, contained in the two-dimensional code, of the software to be upgraded in a version server and sends the URL path information to the first equipment to be upgraded; and the first equipment to be upgraded downloads the software to be upgraded according to the URL path information, and installs updates, so that software upgrading is completed. According to the scheme provided by the invention, complex equipment upgrading steps become simple and easy to do; therefore, user experience is improved; a lot of manpower and material resources can be saved; and in particular, the batch equipment upgrading advantage in the invention is more obvious.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of video surveillance, and in particular relates to an equipment upgrading method and device. Background technique [0002] With the increasing development of video surveillance, the original software in the monitoring equipment cannot meet the new application requirements due to function updates, or the front-end and back-end equipment software cannot be used together. System upgrade has become a countermeasure to solve this problem. When a customer upgrades several surveillance devices (including front-end cameras and back-end hard disk video recorders) at a certain site, the current method is mainly to find the specified Download the version to be upgraded, and then copy the version to be upgraded through the U disk or download the version to be upgraded through the FTP service or HTTP service on the WEB side of the device, and upgrade the devices one by one. The upgrade operation steps are relatively complicated...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

The upgrade operation steps are relatively complicated, which requires technicians to have a good understanding of the device upgrade process, and to be very familiar with the matching relationship between the device model and its corresponding software version, otherwise the upgrade will fail, or the wrong version will fail to meet the customer's needs

If the equipment is to be upgraded in batches, the above-mentioned upgrade operations need to be performed on the equipment to be upgraded separately, which wastes a lot of manpower and material resources
