Support documentation
Important notes - Firmware upgrade:
- Only AsteRx-U products with an internal random-access memory (RAM) larger than 64 MB are eligible for an upgrade to version 4.10.4. This means that AsteRx-U UHF with a serial number lower than 360231 and AsteRx-U, AsteRx-U MARINE with a serial number lower than 3402295 cannot run this version and needs to remain at firmware version 4.5.0.1
- This firmware version does not support Septentrio SECORX positioning based on TerraStar service. Receivers actively using the SECORX service need to remain at firmware version 4.5.3
