Apollo Version 2 Hardware

These release notes detail the changes made in Version 2 of the Apollo and ApolloMAX terminal hardware versions.

How to identify the terminal version

On the rear of the Apollo and Apollo MAX terminal is a label that shows this. After the model there is a "Vx-y" where x & y are numbers. Ignore the second y digit, and check the first x digit. If this is a 2 then this terminal is Version 2 of the Apollo or ApolloMAX terminal.

Example: "V2-0" is a Version 2 terminal, "V1-2" is not.
