How To Upload StarFire License Via Data Cable
This section provides instructions to upload the StarFire license via data cable. A data cable
must be used to upload the StarFire license during the initial setup of the SF-3050. Subsequent

The receiver must be tracking GPS satellites and providing a valid position
solution at the time of the StarFire license upload to accept the license.
