Don't Update Garmin 701!

[walkabout]

I mistakenly updated My Garmin 701 this week to the latest update.
Now the 701 won't send the drops to my Sig2400.
Having waited months for the last updates to make it work, now its stopped again.
I will have to wait for more updates to get it to work again...
Then I'm Never going to update either unit ever again!
You would think these companies would test their updates before releasing them?

Not familiar with running theses devices together, but does the 2400 send target range
to the 701? Must be challenging to have devices from separate ecosystems to be updated
in parallel, I don’t envy software guys....

Hi, Yes they both communicate with each other, the 2400 should receive the information from the 701.

I just updated my Foretrex and tested. It works fine. Is there any chance you're just testing inside? If you range less than 40 yards the 2400 BDX won't display the firing solution. At least that's how mine is.

No, I tested it outside on the range.
I tried re-pairing it, tried deleting the pairing in 701.
I have all the profiles backed up, so I will do a full reset, not the quick one.
Wipe everything and see if that works.
I can't even see what the Garmin update did?
Did it add something?

I just did a hard reset on the 701.
Re-paired the 2400 & 701.
Now works.
No more updates for me!

The latest Garmin update just updated the bullet library.
