AshGPS: Firmware, Software Update Notification
for Ashtech, Magellan Professional, Thales Navigation
Thursday 23 March 2012
 
New Releases: PM800 Firmware, FAST Survey (pending),
ConfRadio, Connecting Satel EASy Radio to PM100/PM200 
New FAST Survey Software 2.9.3 Pending...
A new FAST Survey software release appears to be pending...
 
A new folder has been placed on the Ashtech FTP server, but as of 13:00 EDT has not been populated.
 
I would suggest that this new 'FAST Survey' software release goes hand-in-hand with the new firmware releases for PM500, PM800, PF500 and PF800.
 
May I suggest caution in updating the existing new firmware until new FAST software is released?
