False "Upgrade Failed" Message After Update

We are aware of a bug that may occasionally present a false "upgrade failed" message after completing an upgrade to version 4.4.66. You can confirm a successful upgrade by checking the software level on Axiom by touching Home-->Settings and confirming the version reported matches 4.4.66 on the Getting Started tab.

The fix for this issue is included in this update, and will prevent similar false messages from occurring during future updates.

Attention Spotify Users

The Spotify app is no longer bundled with LightHouse 4. The latest Spotify app can be downloaded from the LightHouse Apps page. Once you have upgraded to LightHouse 4, you can remove the old version of Spotify from the Chartplotter by pressing and holding down on the App, until the pop-up box appears and then clicking “Uninstall application”. Re-install Spotify by downloading it from our website onto a MicroSD card, and then inserting it into the AXIOM. Within the Apps menu, click on “Install from SD/USB.”eS and gS Series Owners

eS & gS Series Owners - This version of LightHouse is for Axiom models only. LightHouse Cannes 3.11 is the last major LightHouse 3 software release to support legacy eS and gS Series systems.

Mixed eS, gS, and Axiom Systems

Mixed systems of Axiom / Axiom Pro / Axiom XL and eS/gS Series displays must remain on LightHouse 3.11.42 or a prior release.

IMPORTANT: Axiom+ displays, Axiom 2 Pro displays and Axiom 2 XL displays cannot be downgraded to v3.11.42 and are not compatible with eS/gS mixed LightHouse 3 systems.

Update Instructions

Please fully read this page before attempting to update your Raymarine System. This page contains each step for successfully updating your Raymarine system. These instructions relate to the following products:

Axiom, Axiom+, Axiom Pro, Axiom 2 Pro, Axiom XL, and Axiom 2 XL Chartplotter displays

Stage 1: Backing Up Your Waypoints, Routes, and Tracks (Optional)

It may be necessary to reset your Axiom after the update if there is an issue. Please make sure you make a backup of any important data before upgrading.

To backup your waypoint/route/tracks data using an Axiom display, please follow the steps outlined here.

The steps for restoring this data to your Axiom display are also contained in this same FAQ.

Compatible MicroSD cards

The following types of MicroSD cards are compatible with your Axiom display:

Type	Size	Native card format	MFD supported format
MicroSDSC (Micro Secure Digital Standard Capacity)	Up to 4GB	FAT12, FAT16 or FAT32	NTFS, FAT32
MicroSDSC (Micro Secure Digital Standard Capacity)	4GB to 32GB	FAT32	NTFS, FAT32
MicroSDXC (Micro Secure Digital eXtended Capacity)	32GB to 2TB	exFAT	NTFS, FAT32

Speed class rating - For best performance, it is recommended that you use Class 10 or UHS (Ultra High Speed) class memory cards, or better.

Use branded memory cards - When archiving data it is recommended that you use good quality branded memory cards.

Stage 2: Populating the Micro SD Flash Memory Card with the MFD Software

Note: To avoid potentially corrupting the data on your Navionics chart card, DO NOT copy software update files to your Navionics chart card, and DO NOT back up waypoint/route/track data to your Navionics chart card. MicroSD cards are commonly available in most stores selling consumer electronics products. Waypoint, route, track data, and system configuration data can be stored on a microSD memory card which also contains software update files.

You are NOT required to update the products software versions sequentially. For example, you can go from v.3.0.40 to v3.1.69.
The mSD (Micro SD)/SD memory cards used with AXIOM Series MFDs should have a memory capacity of no less than 1GB and no more than 32GB.
The mSD/SD card should be formatted to FAT32 or NTFS. (External link: Instructions)

Insert a compatible Flash memory card into the computer's memory card reader or into a memory card reader which has been interfaced to the computer.
Select the appropriate software download for your product.
The downloaded file should be a ".ZIP" file which contains multiple ".ISO" files.
Un-Zip the contents of the Zip file to the Root of the Flash card (Root is the first level you access when selecting the Flash). Make sure the files are not in any folders on the card (External link: Instructions)
Remove the memory card from the computer's memory card reader.

For example: if your computer has assigned Removable Disk (E:) to your memory card reader/writer, then the software update files should be copied directly to Removable Disk (E:), not to any folders created on the memory card.

Note: Do not attempt to open .ISO files, the files you have downloaded are for the AXIOM MFD and networked products. If you attempt to open these files you will see an error as they are designed to update your Raymarine products and not for use in a Windows, Apple or Linux PC.

Stage 3: The update method

Power ON the Master AXIOM display
- Note: If performing a whole system upgrade from the Master display, ensure all other repeater display, STng products, and RayNet-connected devices are also powered on
Place the microSD card into the Axiom's onboard or remote card reader
Touch the 'Settings' button on the Home Screen
Touch 'Update Software'
Touch 'Check SD Card'
The Information bar will appear with the software version found. Touch 'Yes'
The new software will be installed. Do not power down the display during this process.
The Axiom will return to the Home Screen once the update is completed.
You may need to perform the above steps for each AXIOM display you have in the system if the Master did not upgrade them
Once all the devices in the system are updated, please verify that this is correct by going to the following screen:

Screenshot showing Axiom Pro settings screen

Checking the software versions of your Raymarine products
