I have three new Duhua PDW5849-A180 cameras (full model is DH-IPC-PDW5849-A180-E2-ASTE). I am making tweaks and experimenting with motion, storage, etc. To safely export/import the configs between them, I need the firmware to match on the three. Two of them are at 3.140.12JW000.0.R (2024-05-14) and one is at 3.140.0000000.32.R (2025-01-15). I found info that says the following...
  • The 12JW000 builds include small but critical fixes for
    Dual‑sensor stitching

    • LED driver behavior
    • Smart-motion and active‑deterrence integration
  • Without it, generic '0000000' update may look newer (by calendar date) but miss those critical updates—and may later refuse future JW updates until you’ve reinstalled a compatible version.

Would LOVE input on this! If you agree with this assertion and recommend 3.140.12JW000.0.R then please help me find it. I have looked for several hours.

TIA!
