Blue Tiger Silver Series Dash Cam Firmware Update Instructions
Please read these instructions carefully before proceeding with the firmware upgrade.
Important Notes:
- Ensure that the dash cam is connected to a stable power source during the upgrade process.
- Do not interrupt the upgrade process once it has started.
- Use a high-quality, formatted SD card for the firmware upgrade.
Step 1: Download the Firmware
- Visit the official Blue Tiger website www.bluetigerusa.com or this link where the firmware is available for download.
- Download the latest firmware file for the Silver Series Dash Cam.
- Once downloaded, extract the contents of the zip file (if applicable). The extracted file should have a
.bin
extension.
Step 2: Prepare the SD Card
- Insert an SD card (minimum 8GB, Class 10 or higher) into your computer’s SD card reader.
- Format the SD card using FAT32 format. (This step will erase all data on the card.)
- Windows: Right-click the SD card in File Explorer > Select "Format" > Choose "FAT32" > Click "Start."
- Mac: Open "Disk Utility" > Select the SD card > Click "Erase" > Choose "MS-DOS (FAT)" > Click "Erase."
- Once formatted, copy the
.bin
firmware file to the root directory of the SD card. Ensure the file is not placed inside any folder.
Step 3: Upgrade the Firmware
- Safely eject the SD card from your computer.
- Insert the SD card into the SD card slot of the Blue Tiger Silver Series Dash Cam.
- Power on the dash cam. The firmware upgrade process should start automatically.
- During the upgrade, the internal lights near the vent holes in the bottom corner will blink red and blue.
- The lights will blink quickly at first and then slow down as the upgrade nears completion.
- Wait for the lights to stop blinking and for the dash cam to start as normal. This indicates the firmware upgrade is complete.
Step 4: Final Steps
- After verifying the firmware upgrade, you can format the SD card again to use it for regular recording.
- Reconfigure any dash cam settings that may have been reset during the upgrade.
