FLY-Gemini V3 Bootloader Recovery

For brick recovery only
  • Please note that the HID Bootloader is pre-flashed at the factory, so there is no need to flash it again.
  • For regular firmware updates, please prioritize using the USB firmware or USB bridge CAN firmware page. Do not repeatedly flash the bootloader firmware.

Entering DFU Mode

Power Off Operation

Before starting, completely turn off the printer and disconnect the power supply. Do not plug or unplug wiring harnesses, organize interface wiring, or touch terminals while the system is powered on.

  • There are two ways to enter DFU mode.

  • First method: With the motherboard completely powered off, use a jumper cap to connect BOOT and BOOT1. Then, connect one end of a data-capable USB cable to the motherboard and the other end to the computer.

  • The second method involves a reset sequence and is not recommended for general users to perform independently. If after-sales support requests this method, please follow the steps provided by the after-sales team.

Power Off Operation

Before connecting or re-plugging the USB cable, completely shut down the printer and disconnect other power sources. Do not allow the tool board to be powered simultaneously via the printer's power supply and the USB interface.

USB Connection Compatibility

Some computer USB ports may cause unstable flashing due to driver or signal compatibility issues. If connection fails, try switching to a different USB port on the computer or use a reliable USB hub. If the error shown below appears, check the USB connection and drivers first.
