[LW] [LW11] DSM30 or 300 wont take update from E90W

[unixdood]

HI,
I have an E90W with a DSM30. Been trying to update the SW but keep getting the error (transfer failed) but I have no issues connecting and using the current DSM30. Just wanted to update the SW to see if I could get the TEMP to work with my B744V transducer.
I also have a DSM300 and when thats connected it all works fine also but the update wont transfer either. Same error. I am using a Raymarine switch for the ethernet backbone.
Is there any trick to get this update over to the DSM's? I have a CF card with the 4.20 SW and the E90W boots into the update SW app without any issues.

Thanks
Bill

Dear unixdood,

Please follow these instructions on updating the DSM30/300

E-Series Widescreen:
1) Copy the “autorunc.dob” file onto a blank CF card together with the two upgrade packages: “DSM300-APP.PKG” & “DSM300-BTLD-v5.18.PKG”.

o Note, You MUST use v1.09 “autorunc.dob” file as earlier versions will not work with the current Bootloader in the DSM.

2) Connect the DSM to the E-Wide via a Crossover Coupler or a SeatalkHS Switch

3) Insert the CF card into the E-wide chart reader slot

4) Apply power to the E-Wide and DSM and wait for the MFD to boot into the upgrade utility.

5) Select the Bootloader package v5.18 and press “Upgrade Remote Unit”, then “Upgrade Remote Unit on Ethernet”

6) Now, Cycle the power to the DSM ONLY. There will be an approximate 10 second delay before the upgrade will commence.

o Note: There is a 120 second delay built into the autorun utility, from the time you press “Upgrade Remote Unit on Ethernet” and from when you power cycle the DSM off and on again.

7) Boot code is now upgraded to v5.18……

8) To upgrade the DSM Application to v4.20, now repeat steps 5 and 6 but select the Application package v4.20 instead of the bootloader.


9) Now remove the CF Card from the E-Wide and power cycle the system. Check the DSM is performing as desired.
Please ensure you check any Depth Offset in the DSM once you have upgraded the software

Many Thanks
Louise

Thank you

Thank you again Louise,
That worked fine. The part i was missing was the restart of the DSM after pressing the update button on the MFD.

Sorry to hijack the thread. i have an E80 classic and trying to update software but been having issues trying to. I have found several versions of updating the unit but that is not my question. What i want to know is when i down load the update file for my unit is the autorunc.dob file in the download the correct one or do i have to download it from somewhere else and put it in the root file. As you indicated make sure you are using v1.09

[Nbt22555]

would we assume that is in the download file with the other two files or do we get that somewhere else and how do we verify that version.
v1.09 “autorunc.dob”

Dear Nbt22555,

Thank you for your post.

Please use the autorun file that is with the software download.

Many Thanks
Louise
