After upgrading the RNS 510 to a higher version of firmware (3810 or higher) from revision C or earlier hardware running software 2840 or earlier the backlight may stop working after the gateway update and subsequent reboot. The screen can still be viewed with some additional light.
This recovery cd is based on the 2760 firmware but can be used to recover RNS 510’s running any version. Insert the media into the RNS 510 and start a new SWL process by pressing Setup + Eject +Info/Mic (top right hand button next to the DVD slot). It will attempt to restore a new SWL process and will enable it to boot up. There may be a problem with the RVC not working after this however and if this occurs and you want that to remain working you will need to flash an older version.

is there some newer firmware that doesnt have this problem? I also have the Fynaudio system and works fine whit this version. When U have a new firmware please tell me. thanks
In fact this is not a firmware problem, a dim screen is caused by a incorrect LED screen coding in the RNS-510. It can be permanently fixed only with specialized software.
can you tell me what software needed to permanently fix this issue. my email address is [email protected]
Do you happen to still have this fix for the early versions of the RNS units? Please email me [email protected]

I’m having dim brightness issues on my A version RNS-510 North American model. Is there any fix for this? I’ve tried reinstalling firmware and maps without luck.
Hi jahonlouie – have a look at my post http://www.rnsfirmware.com/rns510-firmware-for-a-and-b-units-3810a/#comment-830 where I had the same issue with my 2009 B unit and found a fix after much investigation
Thank you so much for the reply! I see that it says that its for the European models. Does this also work on NAR models as well? TYIA 🙂
Hi just did the 1200 Gateway fix and my Backlight Dim issue has gone away!!! all I did was download and run the Fix for old CAN gateways, I had to pressing Setup + Eject + Info/Mic to get around the RNS-510 complaining about downgrade error.
