    Check software compatibility. Verify that the MFD Software part number is an approved version
    (see section 1.2)
    If Software is compatible, check USB data loader connector for dirt or other obstructions, recopy the
    utility to the loader and try again. If the utility still does not run, reload the files to a different USB

    aircraft.

    contact Avidyne if any other error messages appear.
