Device Information
Software Updates
Software updates for your camera are received automatically
from the paired Garmin navigation device. You should update
your Garmin navigation device software regularly to keep both it
and the camera up to date. For more information about updating
software, see the owner's manual for your Garmin navigator.
Updating the Camera Software
Before you can update the camera software, you must pair the
camera with a compatible Garmin navigation device (Pairing the
Camera with a Garmin Navigation Device, page 5).
On the paired Garmin navigation device, select an option:
• Connect to a Wi‑Fi
®
network, and select > Updates >
Install All.
• Install all available updates using the Garmin Express
™
application.
See the owner's manual for your Garmin navigation device
for more information.
The navigation device downloads updates for itself and updates
for your BC 40 camera, if available. The next time the device
connects to your camera, it sends the update to the camera
automatically. A message and progress indicator appear on the
navigation device screen while the camera is updating. It takes
about one minute to install the camera update.
Checking the Camera Software Version
Before you can check the camera software version, you must
pair the camera with a compatible Garmin navigation device
(Pairing the Camera with a Garmin Navigation Device, page 5).

Troubleshooting
The camera takes a long time to connect or
does not connect
Your camera may have a weak wireless connection to your
navigation device if it takes a long time to display video on the
navigation device, if the video frequently pauses or buffers, or if
the camera does not display video at all on your navigation
device. Interference with the connection can be caused by other
wireless signals, vehicle wiring, or structural elements of your
vehicle.
You can try these options to help improve the stability of the
wireless connection between your camera and your navigation
device.
• Move the navigation device to a different location on your
dash or windshield.
• Remove the camera from the mount, flip it upside down, and
place it back into the mount.
When mounted with the Garmin logo upside-down, the
camera automatically flips the video the next time it connects
to your navigation device to provide a correctly oriented
image. Flipping the camera upside down changes the
position of the wireless antenna and can improve the
connection quality in some cases.
• Mount the camera at a different location on your license
plate.
