Software updates🔗

It is recommended to always run the latest UGPS G2 software where possible. The latest software can be obtained automatically or manually.

Automatic software update🔗

The G2's GUI automatically checks and indicates if a new software version is available.

  • Connect the G2 topside unit over ethernet or wifi to a network connected to the internet. If on a personal computer, it may be necessary to make a network bridge between a network interface which has access to the internet and the interface through which the G2 topside is connected.
  • Go to http://[IP_ADDRESS_OF_THE_G2_TOPSIDE]:9000 in a web browser.
  • The GUI will automatically check if there is a new version available, and if so, initiate installation of it with a single click.

Offline software update🔗

If it is not possible to connect the G2 topside to the internet, one can proceed as follows.

  • Find the current version and chip ID of the G2 topside unit at Menu -> About in the GUI.
  • Manually download an update package (.wlup) from the update server using the chip ID.
  • Verify if the downloaded version is newer than the currently running version.
  • Navigate to http://[IP_ADDRESS_OF_THE_G2_TOPSIDE]:9000 in a web browser.
  • Select 'Manual upload' and then upload the downloaded .wlup file.
