Updating Handheld/Portable Devices
If your device has removable batteries, such as 2 AA batteries or a lithium-ion battery pack, then it is a handheld/portable device. You can update your device software for free using WebUpdater and a compatible cable.
Updating Fixed Mount Devices
If your device needs to be hard-wired to your boats power supply, then it is a fixed mount device. You can update the software by inserting a data card containing a software update bundle into your device.
You have 2 options for obtaining the update bundle:

reader or Garmin Data Card and Garmin Data Card reader required).
