You won't need a switch.
The EMS-D120 input is a completely different serial port than the PC update port, so there's no conflict there.
The EFIS-D100 serial input is the same one used by the PC for updates, but now that our products no longer need their PC serial ports connected together to talk to each other (that communication is now handled exclusively over the DSAB bus), all you would need to do to hook the SL30 up would be to hook the single SL30 serial output wire to the correct pin on a fresh 9 pin connector. Then just hook that up to the EFIS-D100's 9 pin connector. When you need to update the firmware on the EFIS-D100, just pull off the SL30, and hook up the PC.

Thanks
but will this not disconnect the remote compass which i though had to be connected during updates.
I take it I will also have to do the same for the d120 I will be fitting. Am I right that these need to be updated separately, you cant update them together via DSAB
Thanks

The remote compass's 9 pin connector is entirely separate from both the PC connection and any serial connection. It has its own dedicated harness and connector.

You run wires out of this D25 connector that go a variety of places- Power, EDC, serial port
You leave the connector on the back of the D100 all the time. Coming off this connector is a D9 connector that is a serial port for PC updates. Also coming off this harness is a D9 for the EDC. You leave the EDC and D100 connected together all the time, you plug in to the D9 for the PC and do the update there.
Did you buy a pre-made harness or are you making your own?
