How to Update the Software on the Lynx 10.25” Color Touchscreen Display

This winter, we want to help you reach your peak of fun – that starts with figuring out touchscreen updates. The Lynx 10.25” color touchscreen snowmobile display offers an ever-growing array of capabilities that elevate your snowmobile adventures – especially when combined with the BRP GO! app. Did you know its features are also designed to make your sled ownership experience easier than ever? One of the ways it does this is letting you update the software in the display anywhere you’ve got an internet connection. Let’s look at how these over-the-air (OTA) updates work.

Why should you update the 10.25” Color Touchscreen Display?

The 10.25” display has Wi-Fi connectivity to connect to your home network or any other wireless internet connection, and update the software running your snowmobile screen.

Just like for your mobile devices, you can update the advanced technology in your display to add new features, interface improvements, security updates and more. With the built-in Wi-Fi capability, you can update your snowmobile display to the latest version from the comfort of your home without going to the dealership.

How do I update my 10.25” Color Touchscreen Snowmobile Display

Follow these simple steps to update your display in minutes:

STEP 1:

With power on your sled turned off, connect your display to a network. On the main App menu, select “Preferences,” and then “Wi-Fi” from the list on the left. Then select “Add New Network,” find the network you’d like to connect to from the list that appears on screen, and enter the password. If no Wi-Fi network is available, you can share your smartphone cellular network by hotspot. Just note cellular data fees may apply.

STEP 2:

Once connected to Wi-Fi, select “General” from the list on the left. If a software update is available, you will see a red icon on the "Software Update" button. If so, select "Software Update".

Please note that the system will automatically check if a new update is available when the display is connected to an Internet network and the "General" section is open.

STEP 3:

Press “Download Update” and the process will begin. The time it takes to complete an update is variable depending on your connection strength and network bandwidth.

Once the update process is complete, your snowmobile screen will reboot, and you’ll be equipped with all the latest capabilities for your next Lynx adventures. It’s time to start riding again!
