version you have please look at the front of the radio to see if you have a XM
Ready or Sirius XM ready. By looking at the source menu then the Sat Radio
button, it will say XM or SiriusXM, this will determine your system type.

All Prior Advent Firmware Updates are
included in this version. There is no need to upgrade to any version prior to
this before using this firmware.
This is a maintenance update to
address the following items:
All
Firmware files are compressed to make it easier and faster to download. When
you download this file to your computer you will need a program to uncompress
the files. This is called “UNZIPPING”. There are many free programs to do this
and your computer may have already come with a program built in to do this. If
you require a program we recommend WINZIP.
WINZIP is
free and can be downloaded here: http://www.winzip.com/downwz.htm
Follow the instructions at the WinZip site for use of this utility.
Please follow the instructions below for performing the update to your radio.
NOTE: YOU MUST LOAD THE NEW
SOFTWARE ON EACH SD CARD. YOU CAN NOT COPY TO ONE CARD AND UPDATE MULTIPLE
RADIO’S. USE THE SD CARD FROM EACH RADIO SEPARATELY.
THE FIRMWARE YOU DOWNLOADED IS
SPECIFIC TO THE MODEL RADIO YOU HAVE SELECTED. DO NOT USE IN ANOTHER MODEL OF
RADIO. THIS WILL CAUSE IMPROPER OPERATION AND POSSIBLY DAMAGE THE UNIT.
To update the
firmware:
Remove
the MAP SD card from the radio. Take note on how it came out, contacts up or
down?
You
need a Micro SD Card Adapter; this can be purchased at any office supply store.
Insert the Micro SD into the adapter and plug it into your computer. This can
be a SD Card slot or USB slot depending on your adapter and computer. Do not
delete any files or format the SD card. If you do this you will delete the Map
from your card. Follow the directions
carefully.
Unzip
the file you downloaded and copy all files to the MAP Micro SD CARD – This must
be done for each radio.
You cannot move one SD
card to another vehicle!
If
you are asked “File already exists, is it ok to replace, answer “YES” When completed remove the Micro
SD from the adapter and return to the vehicle. (This can be done on the bench
too.)
Start
with the key off. (Or Power off if on the bench)
Insert
the updated SD card back into the radio exactly the same way it came out, Make
sure it clicks in.
Turn
the radio on. Wait for it to boot up. Hit the Menu button, Go to settings and
go to the second page, push update system. Wait for the key pad to show up,
then enter 543210 and hit the
enter/return key (looks like an arrow)
select auto update, select yes to update all. The update will begin running.
Wait until the radio
reboots completely and the Radio Screen comes up; do not stop the update,
When
the radio restarts and returns to the Radio screen select menu. Select the Nav
application, and restart if needed. Push the NAV hard button to return to the
main menu.
Next:
Select Settings from the main menu, then go to page 2, press and hold SYSTEM RESET UNTIL THE RADIO SHUTS OFF, (this is
extremely important) then let the radio reboot.
Your
Radio now has all the latest features.
You’re
finished. This process should not take more than about 5 or 10 minutes to
complete.
