¶ Firmware Update Methods
There are two ways to update the firmware on your Vision Miner 22 IDEX 3D printer:
- Automatic Firmware Update: This involves using the web interface, where the machine automatically installs the necessary files.
- Manual Firmware Update: This involves using an SD card to replace old files with the new ones.
In both cases you'll need to download last version of Firmvare first.
