DS-2CD1367G2H-LIU to DS-2CD1367G2H-LIUF firmware upgrade

[AliG]

Hello. I need help, I bought a camera in the version without (F) by mistake, and I wanted to be able to record video on an SD card. I took the camera apart to look for the SD slot, but there is only room on the PCB for the slot. So I decided to solder a new socket to the PCB. It seems that the only thing left to do is change the software to the DS-2CD1367G2H-LIUF version. And this is where the problem begins, because the camera does not accept the software from the version with a built-in SD slot via the GUI. I also tried via Hikvision TFTP but to no avail - the camera does not want to receive the update and the server itself waits unsuccessfully for the client. Do you have any idea how to restore the software from the DS-2CD1367G2H-LIUF model?
I am posting the official firmware from hik for the model: DS-2CD1367G2H-LIUF

The specific hardware capabilities of the camera are written into a device description block during manufacture, in a secure way.
It's not about applying different firmware to activate different features, the features are hard-coded into the device.
