completed, Nesis restarts.
•
A few moments after the restart, firmware update begins. Nesis will
update firmware in all devices found on the CAN bus automatically.

Database Update
The Nesis is using several aviation databases. These databases are regularly
maintained and their latest versions are available on our web site.
The databases include: airfield information, frequency information, naviga-
tion points, airspace zones, recommended VFR routes, etc. All these databases
are packed into one bundle and published on our web site. The name of the
bundle is
AvioLatest.kus
.

on again. On the second try, it will update the remaining devices.

Secondary Nesis with IGEP CPU is an exception, as it will only update its own MABU
device.
