Schlage IP cameras finally work with Vera

Do you really mean the original Schlage firmware, that works with the Schlage bridge and a subscription?
(If not, see @Henk’s response.)[/quote]

I’m interested in going back to Schlage firmware if you could provide it, I’ve looked everywhere, please contact through forum

I have a Verizon camera that looks just like the Schlage and VistaCam but cannot log into to it. Verizon says to contact the manufacturer of the cam but looks like this is the same one based on the MAC address. I am gonna give it try and see what happens - thanks for the GREAt info!

I too have a Verizon camera and can not get it to work pass the username and password what was the firmware you used TommyRox? Can you post the link please.

Its listed in the first post of this thread in the slickdeals link:

Thank You Strangely for the tip. I did not see that because I was google searching for info on the verizon cam. I got this cam on Ebay for a good price but found out later it came with no software and the seller said it would be at found on the makers web site Sercomm.com well all that was there is a datasheet on there cam http://www.sercomm.com/SWI/GUI/PROD_top.htm There are going to be a lot of people looking for info on this cam model Rc8021v because you can not get pass the Admin and password to setup wireless. I was able to get cam working just on Lan only. Any way I back stepped those links and found the source page here. http://www.northq.com/products/index.html Hope this well help future guest’s to the forum.

The above link is correct Nightrider - worked great for me.

This is my first post on Slickdeals after years of lurking. Sorry if it’s not formatted correctly.

I picked up two of these units last night at Radio Shack not knowing that the Schlage company wants you to pay for their crummy “LINK” service each month just to use the IP Cam you purchased. So I did a bit of research online and found a compatible firmware for the exact model camera online and successfully flashed it. The OEM manufacturer is SERCOMM and the wired model is the RC2041. It’s also offered as the XANBOO and Motorola Homefront IP Cam.

It’s not available on radioshack’s website any longer, but here’s a link to the product’s website:

http://link.schlage.com/PRODUCTS/...amera.aspx

The RatShack item number is 6100226

They also have a wireless version for $79.99 and the same steps below will work for that model.

YMMV if you choose to do the following:

You’ll need the following files to upgrade the firmware:

Here is the application you’ll use to flash the firmware on the device:
http://www.everbesthk.com/8-downl...207_XP.zip

This is the compatible firmware to flash onto the unit:
http://www.northq.com/download/90...6.1009.zip

Install the upgrade_207_xp.zip application. You’ll need to set it to run in WinXP SP3 compatibility mode and to run as administrator on Windows 7. The app will not work with 64-bit Win7.

Connect the included network cable to the device, then insert a paperclip into the reset hole on the side of the unit. While holding down the reset button, plug in the power adapter. This will put the device into a firmware upgrade mode. The power light should flash while the network light should stay solid.

Open the Upgrade Utility app you installed earlier, select your current network adapter, the click browse targets. If the application finds the device, click on the Files button then navigate to where you saved the firmware file. Once you’re ready, click on upgrade. It should wipe the EEPROM, write the new firmware, then verify that the image has been written successfully. The process should take about 5 minutes or so. When it’s finished, the device will reboot and once the power and network lights are solid, you should be good to go.

It will pull an ip from your router/dhcp server, so you may need to check to see what IP it has been assigned.

The default user name is administrator and the password field should be blank.

It’s not my problem if your computer and/or cam breaks, crashes, dies, or explodes while attempting this.

Anyone happen to have the NorthQ firmware file discussed in this thread?
This is the compatible firmware to flash onto the unit:

Link to the Firmware:
http://www.northq.com/download/9006/FW-NQ-9006.1009.zip

northq.com has been down for like a week, and I have a couple Schlage cameras I need to flash to get working with my new Vera.

I can provide a place for you to upload it, and I’ll seed it for others as a torrent.

Your help would be greatly appreciated.

It looks like NorthQ is back up?

It appears to be working now.

Have you had any luck flashing ADT cameras? I have managed to brick one of mine.

Hi Gus, just heard Schlage is discontinuing this camera and the Link service. They are offering a free replacement for registered customers. So, I want to flash mine so I get an extra camera! But… The software to do this is no longer on the HK site - I have the firmware, but not the installer. Any ideas or does anyone have a copy please?

Cheers.

Sorry to ask again, but does anyone know where I might find the utility and firmware now? Many thanks!

See the attached files. These were what I downloaded originally back in 2011.

I am limited to a 1mb upload, damn and 512K per file, but it looks like the link to the firmware still works and that is a large file:

http://www.northq.com/download/9006/FW-NQ-9006.1009.zip

so I have split and attached the flash utility in zip format (used 7zip) and the instructions I copied to pdf

I hope this helps…5th try…damn 6th try because it doesn’t like the file extension.

Ok download these and remove the “.txt” I appended to the file name, then unzip.

or I could have just Googled the utility filename first:

Here is a tutorial with working copy/paste links:

Dang! WIFI only support WEP and NOT WPA? What a disappointment!

When I open the Upgrade Utility, it doesn’t ask for a network adapter. ??? Then when I click on the red and yellow arrows, It doesn’t locate the camera. ??? Any help?

you need to put it in network detection mode.

Take a pin, preset hold down reset and power up the device. Now it is in network detection mode.
