Device Provisioning

Web Installer (Recommended)

Provisioning your AI-on-the-Edge device can be done easily through the Web Installer. This method allows you to flash the firmware, configure the device, and upload the necessary SD card content — all from your browser.

Open the Web Installer to begin Web Installer Home

Preconditions

Before starting the provisioning process, make sure the following are ready:

  • A supported hardware device
  • A formatted (FAT or FAT32) and empty SD card inserted into the device
  • Downloaded the correct firmware ZIP file for your board from the GitHub Release Page
  • Chrome or Edge browser (required for USB access via Web Serial API)

Step-by-Step Provisioning Guide

Step 1: Enter Bootloader Mode

  • Press and hold the BOOT button
  • While holding BOOT, press the RESET button or power cycle the device
  • If your device lacks a BOOT button, connect GPIO0 (IO0) to GND during reset/power-up

Step 2: Connect and Flash Firmware

  • In the Web Installer, click "Select device", choose your USB port, then click "Install Device"
  • This will flash the firmware to your MCU
    No Firmware Found

Step 3: Power Cycle the Device

  • Once firmware flashing is complete, fully power cycle the device (disconnect and reconnect power)

Step 4: Configure Network

📡 Skip this step if using ethernet connection — the device will use DHCP via ethernet by default.

4.1 Scan Wi-Fi Networks
  • Reconnect to the device via the Web Installer
  • Click "Scan for networks" to list available Wi-Fi access points
    Scan for WLAN
4.2 Connect to Wi-Fi
  • Enter your Wi-Fi credentials and click "Connect to Wi-Fi"

Step 5: Access the Device Interface

  • Once connected to your network, click "Visit Device" to open the web interface
    Wi-Fi Connected Connected Dashboard
  • You can also access the device via:

Step 6: Upload SD Card Content

  • In the device provisiong interface, upload the firmware ZIP file (same file used for flashing)
    Upload ZIP File

Step 7: Install SD Card Content

  • Click "Install" to begin provisioning the SD card
  • This step may take a few minutes
    Install SD Content

Step 8: Reboot and Complete Setup

  • The device will reboot after SD card installation is complete
  • Refresh your browser or revisit the device (compare Step 5)
  • Optional: You can monitor installation progress or view logs in the Web Installer under "Logs & Console"

Step 9: Run Initial Setup Wizard

  • Once the device is up, the Initial Setup Wizard will guide you through:
    • Creating a reference image
    • Defining the alignment marker
    • Setting up number sequences (digit detection)
