* A serial cable for connection to your Argo Navis from your PC, Wildcard Innovations part number pn-ser-cbl.
If your computer does not have an RS-232 serial port, we recommend you use the serial cable in conjunction with the Keyspan USA-19HS USB Serial Adapter.

To install Argonaut Version 2.0, refer to the step-by-step instructions starting on page 161.
To determine which version of firmware your unit currently has loaded, dial up MODE STATUS, STATUS VERSION.
We recommend you use Argonaut Version 2.0 to save your existing Argo Navis setups onto your PC. See page 182 on "Transferring setups".
If you are migrating from firmware version 3.0.0 or later, Argo Navis firmware Version 3.0.3 will preserve your setups.
However, if you are migrating from an earlier version than 3.0.0, then version 3.0.3 will restore your setups to factory defaults so we highly recommend you use Argonaut to save the setups so you can restore them later.
Please note that loading Argo Navis firmware version 3.0.3 will clear any existing asteroid, comet, satellite or user catalogs you already have loaded.
You should ensure you have the original data for any catalogs you may have loaded stored on your PC so that you can reload it after performing the upgrade.
To download a firmware file from your PC to Argo Navis, please refer to page 187.
Version 3.0.3 contains the following improvements :-
* Improved solution for some comet and asteroid orbits.
* More reliable first-time power-up when real-time clock coin cell battery becomes depleted or is replaced.
Should you experience any difficulties, simply email
sales@wildcard-innovations.com.au for assistance.
We thank you again for your support and we hope you enjoy Version 3.0.3.
