Update Modulino firmware in Arduino IDE

1. Connect the Modulino to your Arduino board.

2. Connect the board to your computer and open Arduino IDE.

3. Ensure that the Modulino and ArduinoGraphics libraries are installed in the Library Manager.

4. In the top menu bar, open File > Examples > Modulino > Utilities > FirmwareUpdater.

5. Click Upload to upload the sketch to your Arduino board.

6. The firmware update is complete when the sketch is successfully uploaded to the board. If your board has an LED matrix, the text PAS will be displayed.

7. You can now test the Modulino by uploading an example from File > Examples > Modulino.

Update Modulino firmware in Arduino Cloud Editor

1. Connect the Modulino to your Arduino board.

2. Connect the board to your computer.

3. Open the Cloud Editor.

4. Open the FirmwareUpdater example. Go to Examples > From Libraries, search for “Modulino,” and open Modulino > Utilities > FirmwareUpdater.

5. Click Upload to upload the sketch to your Arduino board.

6. The firmware update is complete when the sketch is successfully uploaded to the board. If your board has an LED matrix, the text PAS will be displayed.

7. You can now test the Modulino by importing a Modulino Template.
