8. SOFTWARE UPDATES

To update the D1’s software:

Check the version of software currently loaded on your D1. The software version is displayed
for a few seconds at the bottom of the screen immediately after you press the rocker to
acknowledge the safety message upon power on. It is also displayed in the Settings Menu.

Check

www.dynonavionics.com

for the latest D1 software version.

If the version number on the Dynon website is higher than the one your D1 currently has,
download the current version from the Dynon website.

Copy the downloaded .d1s file to an SD card (not included). Put the file on a blank SD card.
Firmware updates for the D1 are only a few megabytes, so any size SD card is suitable for this
operation.

Fully insert the SD card into the D1 until it clicks into place, with the SD Card label facing the
back of the D1. You may need to use a small, thin tool – a US quarter works well – to fully
engage and click the SD card in the slot.

Power on the D1.

The D1 will automatically update and display further instructions and status.

Remove the SD card once the update is complete. Restart the D1 using the Power Button.

Confirm that the software is up to date by confirming that the version number shown at power
on matches the version you downloaded from the Dynon website.
