The most current firmware will be listed with a date. The 8 digits of the APP Version is the APP Version date code (YYYYMMDD). The 6 digits of the System Version is the version date (YYMMDD). If the date code of either the APP or System firmware is older than the current firmware on the website, proceed to Updating System Firmware.
