updating rs 130 gps firmware

[Chuck - Raymarine - Moderator]

Alan,

The Raystar 130 GPS Sensor's software update web page has been corrected to include a software update download file that now contains the correct autorun files. This file must be downloaded to your computer, opened, and the file found therein copied/extracted and then pasted into the root level directly of the microSD memory card. The card should then be placed into the un-powered Data Master MFD's memory card reader and then the MFD should be switched ON. Should boot up normally instead of running the software update, then the MFD either has a bad memory card reader slot or the chart card is not compatible with the MFD. The MFD's reader slots would typically be tested by testing them with a compatible chart card, attempting to perform screen capture, backing up waypoint/route/track data to a microSD memory card reader within the slot. Should the MFD's memory card reader be determined to have suffered a failure of one or more of its microSD reader slots, then the MFD may be sent to Raymarine’s Product Repair Center to be bench tested/serviced. If sending the MFD to the Repair Center, then you may also want to sent the Raystar 130 GPS Sensor along with it.
