< Precautions After Firmware Update >
1) Network security level is improved by updating to the latest versions for both the smartphone applications (FUJIFILM XApp / FUJIFILM Camera Remote) and connected cameras, since the latest versions change the network setting menus and connecting procedures to enhance the wireless communication security.
Be aware that the security level remains unchanged in the following case.
・In case that the camera’s firmware is the current version, and the smartphone application (FUJIFILM XApp or FUJIFILM Camera Remote) is the latest version.
2) After updating the camera firmware, if the smartphone application (FUJIFILM XApp or FUJIFILM Camera Remote) is not updated to the latest version, you cannot connect to the camera.
Be sure to upgrade your smartphone application software to the latest version.
3) After updating the firmware, the settings menu related to “WIRELESS COMMUNICATION” on the camera will be deleted, so the settings of the “SELECT CONNECTION SETTING” in the “NETWORK/USB SETTING” will be reset to “1: UNIVERSAL SETTING”.
Be sure to reconfigure settings according to the external devices you are connecting to (Frame.io, FTP servers, etc.).
4) After updating the firmware, you will no longer be able to print images taken with a digital camera directly from the instax™ SHARE SP-1/2/3. When printing images using instax™ SHARE SP-1/2/3, please use the smartphone application (FUJIFLM XApp or FUJIFILM Camera Remote) to import images and print from the dedicated instax™ printer application.
