Caution
As the Aux port is powered by an internal regulator, the maximum power limit
should never be exceeded. Doing so will damage the Gemini 720is.
Note
The Aux Power control will only affect Gemini 720is units that have serial based
Aux ports. The dual ethernet version of the Gemini 720is is unaffected by this
setting.
5.4. Gemini Firmware updates
Each release of the Gemini Software automatically contains the latest revision of firmware
suitable for the Gemini Sonar. The software will automatically check the existing firmware and
will advise if an update is available. Updating the firmware of the Gemini Sonar will improve
the capabilities of the unit as well as allow access to new features and enhancements as
they are developed.
Warning
During the update process, power to the Gemini Sonar should not be interrupted.
Power loss during this process may cause the Gemini Sonar to become unstable
and require immediate servicing.
In the
Advanced
screen, the
Sonar
tab contains details of all the Gemini Sonars detected by
the software. Should an update be available, the affected sonar will have its firmware details
highlighted with orange text - regardless of if the unit is
Online
or
Offline
.
To update the firmware of
the unit, ensure that the unit
is
Offline
and click on the
Update
button.
The software will then ask you
to confirm the update process,
giving details of the existing
firmware and its replacement.
Click
Ok
to proceed.
