Title: Issues with 6.60 Update
Post by: dturnersr on March 22, 2013, 02:07:54 PM
Just FYI recently downloaded the new update 6.60 for two units.  A few issues:
1.  Even after downloading the update on SD cards and verifying update is present several units did not want to up load until after several attempts using the prescribed methond. 

2.  After down loading the 360 simulation images display error codes for images unless screen is toggled.

3.  Unit shut down self initiated when toggling through screen function in simulation mode.

4.  The video out function is disabled.  I verified this on several different units and with other friends.   I was able to restore the function by reloading 6.180; however, as I give classes and seminars it's a pain to have to swap back and forth to use the 360 screens.  I understand through several contacts a new update is pending to address these issues. 

Have a great day.

David

6.610 software is out for most, if not all of the units that received the 6.600 software, but I don’t remember reading that it took care of any video output problems.

The newest update available for 998's is the 6.60.  Greg what does the 6.10 resolve?  I am expecting arrival of my new 1198C Si any day.  I am hoping it has newest updates already, but expecting it will not.
