You can connect to the device via serial port or Wi-Fi
Please prepare MobaXterm_Personal or another SSH terminal tool in advance
Ensure the SD card or M2WE has the corresponding host computer system flashed onto it
If the host computer fails to boot normally, remove drivers, limit switches, fans, and other peripherals!!!
Finally, connect via network to SSH for convenient firmware compilation!!
For firmware compilation, refer to the tutorial for connecting to the host computer via Wi-Fi or Ethernet cable

Installing the System Storage Card

Ensure the system card has the corresponding system flashed onto it; otherwise, it will not boot

warning

FLY host computers require an M2WE or 2.4G WiFi module; otherwise, Wi-Fi cannot be used
Note: The host computer does not support Wi-Fi with Chinese names or dual-band (2.4G and 5G) combined Wi-Fi

The location indicated by the red arrow is the Wi-Fi antenna port
The Wi-Fi antenna port is ipex1
Install the antenna onto the M2WE; otherwise, poor signal may prevent connection to the router

If the motherboard is properly connected to the computer, you can see the CH340 port by opening the Device Manager.

Open MobaXterm and set it up as shown below. Select the port previously seen in the Device Manager.

If everything is normal, you should see the startup screen.
After a brief wait, if the screen below appears, the system has started successfully.

If after waiting for several minutes, as shown below, there is no display on the screen, press the Enter key several times.
