Prerequisite Software for SOLIX

When updating Humminbird units, in most cases you can update straight to the latest version available. However, over the years there have been a few firmware versions that are necessary to have installed before proceeding to anything more recent. This is primarily found in the SOLIX series.

Below we will list these required versions of software and any applicable information or instructions that go with them.

Software Version 3.040

  • Only applies to SOLIX G1
  • File name: solix-unified-app-r3.040.upd
  • Version 3.040 is the first required update and must be installed prior to installing versions 3.350* or 3.500. 
  • The 3.040 software file is available in the same folder when downloading version 3.350* or 3.500. See image below:
