There two types of upgrade for a 8000i processor.

1.Software patch upgrade. This is a quick procedure using a small file that can be downloaded from the Northstar website www.northstarnav.com or from a Northstar dealer. This method will be used to fix known issues or for minor feature additions. Install this on to the system master. Other processors will upgrade off the master unit

2.System image upgrade. This is large file that can be downloaded and will be available from Northstar dealers on DVD format. This will erase the current system software and replace with a new version. It will not remove user settings such as waypoints, routes and page settings. This system will be used when major features have been introduced that require changes to the underlying operating system.

A power disconnect during upgrade or installation will corrupt the system completely.

To avoid loss of information such as waypoints etc. always back up your information.

When upgrading a multi-processor system. Start with the system master. When the master is being upgraded, all other units will be unusable and display a message alerting the user that the master is being upgraded.
