Step 6: Update the Commander Touch Software
SiriusXM may occasionally release software updates for Commander Touch. It is recommended that
you periodically check for a newer version, and update the software in your Commander Touch
whenever a newer version is available.
Determining the Software Version of your Commander Touch
You can determine whether your Commander Touch has the latest software by comparing the
software version numbers of your Commander Touch to the version numbers of the latest software
release from SiriusXM. The latest SiriusXM software version for Commander Touch is:
Display Controller: V00.00.26 Tuner Baseband: V11.38.00
Tuner Micro: V00.02.04 (Swipe up) NAND Image: V00.00.16 (or higher)
To check the software version of your Commander Touch,
swipe to Settings, swipe up or down if necessary, tap the About
button, and tap Software Information. If you find that any of
the software version numbers listed above are higher numbered
than the versions in your Commander Touch, you should update
the software in your Commander Touch. For example, V00.00.21
is a newer software version than V00.00.19.
