• Oudie2 memory

    From Dgtarmichael@21:1/5 to All on Thu Feb 16 09:40:08 2023
    What items in an Oudie2 memory are volatile? If the battery dies what goes? And what is the process to restore it? Do I just update it like normal?

    If it is an Oudie2-IGC, then the electronic seal will be lost and can
    only be restored by Naviter or authorised agent.

    Hi Doug,

    The Oudie and Oudie 2 and Oudie IGC use flash memory for the program and maps and waypoint and other files. It is non-volatile. The memory is secure even if the main battery dies completely.

    A logger security battery is used for the IGC security on Oudie IGC units. It has nothing to do with the main Oudie memory. the Oudie and Oudie 2 don't have any batteries like that.

    If you accidentally delete files, or have memory corruption, Naviter can supply the files to complete erase the Oudie's memory. It is a long and somewhat complicated process, but it is well documented. I can help with it too. For the Oudie IGC, if the
    main memory is erased and all the files re-installed, it will probably be necessary to re-seal the unit's logger's IGC security seal. I can do that here.

    I have Oudie screens, batteries, and plastic housings in stock - so I can repair most Oudie issues quickly. I can also calibrate the logger in Oudie IGC units, and re-seal Oudie IGC units that lose their security seal.

    Best Regards,

    Thanks Paul, and Tim. That's what I needed to know. I'm working on a project for the club that involves a bunch of aging Oudies. (Non-IGC)
