[CA] SPX 10 and ST 70 software update

[Chuck - Raymarine - Moderator]

Welcome to the Raymarine Forum 2thfish,

Q1. I get a message that no update is available when I insert the card w/the download update. Both the SPX 10 and ST70 have version 1 software.
A1. When updating this legacy autopilot, all devices should be disconnected from the SeaTalkng backbone except for the MFD and one of the legacy autopilot devices to be updated. Should the SPX autopilot course computer currently be supplying power to the SeaTalkng backbone, then it will be necessary to instead power the SeaTalkng backbone via a SeaTalkng Power Cable which in turn has been connected to a 12VDC power circuit. It is recommended that the MFDs be updated with the LightHouse II v19.03 software update before update the legacy autopilot components. Finally, ensure that the contents of the downloaded software update .zip file have been extracted the zip file and copied to the root level directory of microSD memory card. After having updated the legacy autopilot component's software, then these files will need to be deleted from the microSD memory card and replaced with the software update files for the legacy autopilot component to be updated.

Q2. When I do a data source selection I get a message that the SPX10 ST 70 are preventing data source selection. How can I get the software update to occur?
