firmware is important to the proper operation of the receiver.

current firmware. The firmware file extension is *.s19.

Open the Readme.txt file for additional information.

The *.s19 file may begin with ‘SP’ instead of ‘OC’ after
January 2012.

Firmware folder with the installed version displayed in
the Firmware Info window.

In the example above, the NAV firmware in the
receiver matches the firmware in the folder.

most current version, go to the Upload Software
Options
