Bluetooth Disabling While Performing Module Updates
When performing any Software update, it is necessary to turn "OFF" the Bluetooth
connection and hard wire the dongle. It is possible that the update will fail if the
dongle is not hard wired. The affected module may require replacement as a consequence.
All update instructions require the dongle to be hardwired.
Here are the recommended Bluetooth disabling instructions for the 6150A, 6150B and the
6160A.
6150A;
Shutting off the Bluetooth on the 6150A is done by the switch behind the handle. This
will also shut off the Wi-Fi and you will need to hard wire the internet connection.
Once this is done start ODIS and perform the update.
