Display software
After installing a Digital Radar scanner, i.e. before it is used, you must ensure that any associated
multi-function display (MFD) is using the
latest software version.
To check the MFD software version, switch on the MFD and check the version number on the
navigation warning screen. Note that if a scanner is not connected, the version number will only
be displayed for 10 seconds.
