The receiver may be reset to the default settings using the
Log+Scroll+Power button combination. Release the three
buttons only after the Magellan logo is displayed.
The reset procedure is also used to poll the radio module. If
a new module is detected, the receiver will update its
database so it can successfully communicate with the new
module.
The default settings can also be restored using the
$PASHS,INI command. With this command, you can ask
more than a simple "restore default settings". See INI:
Receiver Initialization on page 207.
Firmware upgrades can be downloaded from the Magellan
FTP server.
Completing a firmware upgrade procedure may take up to 15
minutes. For this reason, it must be run with the receiver
powered from both a fully charged internal battery and the
AC/DC power supply kit. You also need a USB key to make the
upgrade files available to the receiver.
A firmware upgrade consists of the following files:
Filename
