Hi All ,
I am using Ethernet to display my SBS3 . When I update my SBS3 , will I have switch to USB - then switch back to Ethernet after the updates .
Thanks
Tony
You will need to use USB to update the firmware then back to Ethernet.
Thanks - Anmer
Thought that was the routine .
Hope I don't have a blank screen like the other guy after my updates !!
Never had a problem since I started to use Ethernet ;D

Hi ,
I down load 1.2.3.175 But had to revert back to Firmware 116 !!
Could be me - but I did the 118 up date three times , but still did not work .
SBS3 opened the screen but no data - Also show on the help icon that there was '0' firmware
Will try later on and see if I can load in version 118 .
I did load in 116 OK
Still back on the USB - All OK
for now
At least the SBS3 is working on 175 and 116

Hi Tony
What's your SBS-3 serial number, to four places, such as 3031*?
Trying to see if there's a problem with a production batch?
Hi Anmer ,
Will check the serial number .
Mine is 031049
Right now I am on the USB set up running 1.2.3.175 F/W 115 - all is working good !!
I had a problem with my ACARS only decoding one freq - Well now its working on all my ACARS Freq's - Yepppeeeeeeeeee ;D
The other thing I have found - Firmware 116 has vanished off the Kinetic site .
Now I am going to see if I can set up my SBS3 on Ethernet again . With all the messing about the IP address for the SBS changed in the router .
Hi Anmer ,
Ethernet is all OK again and so is my ACARS decoding .
So will leave the whole set up as it is !!
So there was a problem with my first F/W116 set up - that's why my ACARS did not decode properly .
Take Care over there - Hope the weather clears up - We are into rain and +5 today
