Chapter 5 .......................................................................... Software Options
This chapter provides instructions for uploading Software Options to enable the robust
functionality of the SF-3040 or the SF-3050 in the initial configuration purchased by the user, or
as a performance upgrade.
The SF-3040 and the SF-3050 are designed with a long-term performance upgrade path to
meet changing needs via software upgrades. Increased functionality does not typically require
the costly purchase of additional hardware.

The SF-3040 and SF-3050 software-enabled features (bundled for the SF-3050
and available for purchase individually for both the SF-3040 and the SF-3050),
cover a wide variety of applications. For the SF-3050, refer to the SF-3050 GNSS
Product User Guide for descriptions of the software options in each bundle: SF-
3050G, SF-3050S, and SF-3050M.

For the initial setup of the SF-3040 and the SF-3050, Software Options must be
loaded before loading the StarFire License (if purchased).
