  1. Connect your ADSBee to a computer via a USB-C cable. Make sure to use a cable that has data wires, not just power!
  2. Press the button labelled “BT” and keep it held down. Press and release the button labelled “RST”. Release the button labelled “BT”. The ADSBee 1090 should show up as a USB mass storage device.

  1. Go to the ADSBee Firmware Releases page and download the most recent firmware release. All you need is the file ending in “.uf2” (e.g. “combined.uf2”).
  2. Drag and drop the .uf2 file into the ADSBee USB mass storage device and wait for it to finish loading. The USB mass storage device should automatically eject when the firmware update is complete.
  3. Leave the ADSBee plugged in to your computer while it updates the firmware stored on the ESP32. This should take about a minute; the indicator lights may do some funky things while the firmware is being upgraded. When the orange NETWORK LED begins flashing regularly (at about 5Hz), indicating stable communication between the RP2040 and the ESP32, the firmware update has completed and your device can be unplugged or used as usual.
  4. Optional: Check your firmware version by connecting to the CLI and sending AT+DEVICE_INFO?.

Note

A network bootloader is coming soon! Once installed, it will enable device firmware to be updated without the need for a physical USB connection. Stay tuned!
