For an SDL, I would probably update the firmware using Online->Update Device firmware. ]

Hi Phillippe,

I would always try and get a copy of the configuration that is in the Display before running the update, unless you do not need to keep the configuration. The upgrade process will attempt to maintain the configuration that is stored in the dash and upgrade it to match the current firmware version, but sometimes the step from the installed version to the current version of the firmware can be too great and this can cause issues as features can change in the process.
