The firmware files are different from each type of camera.
You have to prepare a firmware file(.rui) that is suitable for the camera.

1) From DirectIP NVR
In Setup > Camera > Upgrade, you can upgrade cameras directly from NVR.
Firmware files should be stored in the USB memory stick which will be connected to the NVR.

2) From IDIS Discovery
To upgrade the camera from IDIS Discovery, both PC and Camera must be in the same subnet. Verify the IP address first before trying to upgrade.
The menu for the upgrade can be found from the Management in the top menu bar.

The IK rating classifies the level of protection that electrical appliances provide against mechanical impacts from outside. It is defined by standard IEC 62262. The degree of mechanical protection is identified by a code that consists of the letters IK followed by two digits:

Some Network cameras have CVBS analog video output port so it can be seen through a portable monitor.
It is utilized for making the image more focused and setting view angle.
When the camera operates in IDIS protocol, Video format between NTSC and PAL is selectable in Setup > Video > Camera > Miscellaneous.

In the case of WDR camera,
There is a condition to output the analog signal. CVBS analog video signal might not be generated from the camera. It’s a limitation of the SoC chip on the WDR camera.
If the 4th stream is not set (only 3 streams are operating), CVBS will perform well.
In DirectIP NVR, if the custom field for recording is not set, CVBS will be outputted.
