Sabine NAVIGATOR System Processors Firmware

 

  New Navigators are Now Shipping!

NOTE: Firmware version must be compatible with NAVIGATOR SYSTEM PROCESSORS Software version. See notes below.

Your Navigator has its own operating system which is called firmware. Periodically we may update the Navigator firmware to make improvements in the features and functions. You can take advantage of these upgrades on your own.

Step One: The first step to upgrading your Navigator firmware is to download the Navigator Upgrade Wizard and run the setup to install the wizard software on your computer.

Step Two: Next you will download the latest firmware shown below on this page. We recommend you save it in the Sabine/Navigator directory. If you save it elsewhere make a note of it - you will need to know this when you upgrade your Navigator. The download is a ZIP file that contains firmware for all Navigators. Run WinZip and extract the firmware files.

Step Three: Run the Navigator Upgrade Wizard and follow the on-screen instructions to upgrade the internal firmware of your Navigator. When prompted make sure you choose the firmware file for your model Navigator. If you choose the wrong file the process will stop - you will not damage your unit.

NOTE: Your Navigator's current firmware version will appear in the lower right of the LCD screen briefly during boot up, just prior to the main screen.
