Updating the Software as Part of a Garmin Network Update

If the remote control is connected to the same Garmin BlueNet™ network or Garmin® Marine Network as a compatible Garmin chartplotter, you can perform a network update on the chartplotter to update all of the connected Garmin devices and Fusion Apollo™ devices.

NOTE: A remote control must be running software version 6.20 or later to receive an update over the network. If your remote control is running an earlier software version, you should update it using a USB flash drive or the Fusion® Audio app before trying a network update.
  1. If needed, go to garmin.com/manuals, and locate the latest version of the owner's manual for your connected chartplotter.
  2. Go to garmin.com/support/software/marine/ to download the latest marine update .

    You must download the update and install it using a memory card on the chartplotter. Updating the marine network using the ActiveCaptain® app does not update connected Fusion Apollo devices.

  3. Follow the directions in the chartplotter owner's manual for performing a network update.

    The software is updated on all of your connected devices, including the remote control.
