Manual Update to the Latest Version of N2KView
Where the installation of the TSM800 or TSM1330 does not have internet access, a manual update will
be required on a periodic basis to ensure that the latest version of N2KView is installed.
These are instructions to create a USB memory stick that will update N2KView on a TSM800 or
TSM1330.
Preparation
Download the following files and copy them to the root directory of a USB memory stick.
www.maretron.com/files/N2KView/Maretron N2KView BlackBox 3.6.0.20121101.air
www.maretron.com/files/N2KView/n2kview-update-descriptor-blackbox-2.5.xml
The easiest way to save the second file is to follow the link which opens the file in a browser window.
Then press ctrl-S to save the file, navigate to the USB memory stick, and save the file.
Install
With the N2KView running, plug the USB memory stick into the TSM800 or TSM1330. Within a few
seconds, you will see a window pop up asking if you want to upgrade. Follow the instructions.
If you do not see this message, you may already have the latest software installed. Pressing F12 should
show the following messages:
Checking for update on USB drive ....
Received update-descriptor from USB, new version = .... , current version = ......
Comparing the new and current versions will tell you if you are up to date.
If the second message is not displayed, the xml file that you downloaded was not found in the root
directory of the USB memory stick
Restart
Note that the TSM800 or TSM1330 will do an automatic restart 5 minutes after this process is started.
This is necessary.
