If you are compiling and flashing firmware, please refer to the network connection guide instead of the serial connection guide.

You can connect to the device via serial or Wi-Fi.
Please prepare MobaXterm Personal or other SSH terminal tool in advance.
Please confirm that the SD card or M2WE has System corresponding to the host computer flashed.
If the host computer fails to start normally, please remove peripherals such as drivers, limit switches, fans, etc.!!!
Finally, please connect to SSH over the network to compile the firmware!!
For firmware compilation, please refer to the tutorial on connecting the host computer via Wi-Fi or Ethernet cable

Installing the System Storage Card

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

The Wi-Fi antenna connector is ipex1.
Please install the antenna onto the M2WE, otherwise, poor signal may prevent connection to the router.

Power Supply
