Notes:
------------------------------------------------------------
Change History:
Version 2.10 to 2.20:
1. Updated the French translation.
2. Updated the company name text and copyright.
----------------------
Version 2.03 to 2.10:
1. Added Turkish language support.
2. Improved digital depth performance.
----------------------
Version 2.02 to 2.03:
1. Corrected invalid speed calibration if calibration process is cancelled.
Completing the speed calibration process did not result in the error so
there is no need to recalibrate with this software update if previous
calibrations were not cancelled.
2. Improved update efficiency by reducing the number of STC computations needed.
3. Corrected blanking error when a zoomed sonar image undergoes a range change.
4. Added more filtering to water temperature.
5. Improved noise rejector some. Now less likely to reject weak signals when
rejection isn't necessary.
6. Corrected bottom acquisition gain computations when switching between
"From Chart" and "Auto" depth number methods. This error only occurred when
the method was switched and does not impact operation of either independent
from the other.
7. Use correct fish ID bitmap transforms. Transformations were working correctly
by accident, now they work on purpose.
----------------------
Version 2.01 to 2.02:
1. Added Croatian language support.
2. Turn off transmitter if unit is powered on in an overvoltage condition.
----------------------
Version 2.00 to 2.01:
1. Added European language support.
----------------------
Version 2.00 is the initial release version.

3. Connect your unit to a free serial port (Com 1, 2, 3, or 4) on your PC with
a PC interface cable.
4. Turn on your unit and ensure NMEA Output is set to "OFF". You can find this

and run the update program, updater.exe. Select the appropriate serial
port and click "OK" to begin the software upload.
During the upload, the display will indicate "Software Loading...."
The upload process should take 2-5 minutes to complete. When the upload
