Configuration

Now that you have the designer installed, we will walk you through initial setup and configuration of your controller.

Firmware Installation

The first thing you should do with the LED Spy Board once the designer is installed, is to download the latest firmware and ensure your board is up to date. Firmware can be flashed directly through the designer by following the steps demonstrated below.
