so how can i get this update

[reddog]

go to humminbirds HSOforum, log into your online registration, If you havent done that yet, then you need to, because you wont be able to update without registering your unit. Log into your "profile" page, and it should be there waiting for you to download to your computer Then drag and drop it into a sd card, Put the sd card in the unit, and power it up. Answer the two questions it asks. Yes, then no, I believe. Then, it will automaticaly update the unit. Dont do anything til te update is complete.
