Connect camera to your PC using the USB cable. For Windows PC, the camera will appear as a drive called “MICRO3.0” located in “My Computer”. For Mac, the camera USB drive will appear on your desktop.
Copy the “ _sealifefw.bin ” file from your desktop and paste it to the “MICRO3.0” drive. Note: Make sure the “ _sealifefw.bin ” file name has not been altered (must be “sealife_fw.bin”) and that it’s located under the DCIM folder , like this:
Disconnect the camera from the computer and Power on camera.
“Processing…” appears on the display, indicating FW update is in progress. It takes about 30 seconds to update. The FW file automatically deletes after the update has successfully been installed in the camera.
To confirm that the firmware has updated correctly, power on the camera, push the Menu key, select “System Settings” using the up/down keys and push shutter button to confirm. Scroll up one step to “Firmware Version:” which should show V1.05. That’s it. Happy Diving!
