Updating the LINK 530

We recommend updating the firmware on your LINK 530. You can do this by using the Firm-

ware-Update Tool and a Microsoft Windows® computer. A connection to the Internet or TomTom

WEBFLEET is not required.

Before you can use the LINK 530 Firmware-Update Tool, you need the following:

The TomTom LINK 530 Service Set.



A Microsoft Windows computer.



The latest LINK 530 Firmware-Update Tool (firmware is embedded).



The USB driver for TomTom LINK 530 devices.



1. Install the USB driver.

This is required to establish a connection between your computer and your LINK 530 using the

USB cable.

You can download the USB driver from the Partner Portal. Install the driver on your computer

by double clicking the .exe file and following the instructions.

2. Install the latest Firmware-Update Tool version.

You can download the latest Firmware-Update Tool from the Partner Portal under Software

and Firmware. You must be logged in to the Partner Portal to download the Tool. The down-

loadable ZIP file contains the tool with the firmware update file embedded. Unzip the down-

loaded file to your local hard disk.

To update the firmware on your LINK 530 using the Firmware Update Tool, do the following:

1. Connect your LINK 530 to a Microsoft Windows® computer using USB.

The first time you connect a LINK 530 to your computer's USB port, a pop-up window tells you

about the installation of the hardware. Follow the instructions and select automatic installation.

A virtual COM port named TomTom LINK followed by a port number is assigned.

To find out the port number, do the following: Open the Windows Control Panel. Select the

Hardware tab. Select Device Manager. Open the list for Ports (COM & LPT).

2. Start the Firmware-Update Tool by double clicking on the .exe file.

On a computer with Microsoft Windows® Vista or Windows® 7, you must run the tool in

mode.
