It\u2019s good to see PORTKEYS producing a ton of informative videos that help with set-up and operation. More companies should be doing the same!<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Preparation Steps:<\/p>\n<p>USB Drive: Use a USB 2.0 drive (maximum 64 GB) formatted as FAT32 or FAT.<\/p>\n<p>Download: Visit the official Portkeys website, navigate to Support, then Firmware Upgrade, and download the file for your specific monitor model.<\/p>\n<p>Setup: Extract the downloaded file and ensure the .bin files are placed in the root directory of the USB drive.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Upgrade Process:<\/p>\n<p>Power: Ensure the monitor has a sufficient battery charge before beginning.<\/p>\n<p>Connection: Insert the USB drive into the monitor\u2019s port.<\/p>\n<p>Navigation: Go to Settings &gt; Monitor Settings &gt; swipe up &gt; Firmware.<\/p>\n<p>Execution: Select Upgrade and confirm Yes.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Important Warnings:<\/p>\n<p>Do not power off or operate the device while the progress bar is active, as this could interrupt the update.<\/p>\n<p>Once finished, verify that the installed firmware version matches the one you downloaded.<\/p>\n<p>CINENORM OS<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">PORTKEYS CINENORM OS operating system is based around a custom page system. Users can access seven custom pages to add and store their favorite monitoring tools. Monitor settings can be saved on a USB stick, so you can import and load your user profile to any Portkeys monitor running CINENORM OS.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">All monitor tools have been categorized into six categories: exposure, focus, waveform, monitoring, color mixing, and dual screen. This categorization makes searching, finding, and adding tools to each page faster without browsing all of the 25+ monitoring tools.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">PORTKEYS monitors with camera control capabilities can adjust the settings and control more than 80 camera models from eight different brands. With CINENORM, a camera control category has been added to allow users to check their wired\/wireless camera connection settings quickly. Also, the appropriate connection method for each camera is displayed in the camera control menu.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"PORTKEYS has put out a tutorial video showing you how to do firmware updates with their CINENORM system&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":939899,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[146626,49,48,322055,322056,322057,61],"class_list":["post-939898","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-technology","tag-arri","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-firmware-upgrade","tag-monityors","tag-portkeys-cinenorm-os","tag-technology"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/939898","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=939898"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/939898\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/939899"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=939898"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=939898"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=939898"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
