Dec 10, 2019     Update MGL Firmware - (0.65 hour) Category: Avionics
Updated G3 Explorer iEFIS firmware to FlightOps system G3 iEFIS 1.0.0.3. iEFIS application G3 A 1.1.0.1 (22 October 2019).

When updating the V16 VHF radio firmware using the Explorer/SD card method, the update routine in the iEFIS asked to cycle the power to the radio. Since the radio power from the ECB is switched in software from the Explorer, cycling the power while leaving the Explorer running was not possible so power was removed from the Explorer. The V16 radio & Razor head power was wired to a physical switch and the update attempted.
After the update routine called to cycle power to the radio, the Razor head indicated no Com radio available, and the Explorer update routine stopping at 1% with a no ack error. Returned the V16 and Razor to MGL for service.

Did not update iBox firmware.
