| Update Accessories
Accessory software is updated from the Files tool, and the process is similar to updating the control head software. It is important
to review the following tips:
• Update the control head and accessories in the order they appear on the software update list in the Files Tool. Sonar Black
Boxes (SM1000/2000/3000) and Ethernet Switches must be updated individually on the software update list.
• If an accessory is not displayed on the list, confirm it is detected on the network (Settings > Network > Network Info). Also,
confirm the cable connections are secure.
• You might notice that the control head will restart during the software update. This is part of the update process.
• The i-Pilot Link has separate software updates for the controller and remote. After the software is updated on the control
head, you must go to the remote and initiate the download of the remote software to the remote itself. See your i-Pilot Link
manual for details.
WARNING! Before the control head software is updated or restored to system defaults, export your menu settings, radar settings, and
navigation data. Copy your screen snapshots to an SD card. See Register Products and Back up Data for details.
