There are two ways to utilize the Mass Storage Drag-and-Drop Option:
- Program the embedded device is to
drag and drop a .
hex file into the CURIOSITY drive. The C
compiler toolchain generates a .hex file for each project it
builds. This .hex file contains the code of the project. The
Nano Embedded Debugger (PKoB nano) also provides access to a serial port
interface (serial to USB bridge). This facilitates the user to drag and drop a
modified .hex file, which contains the firmware updates. This
feature does not require any USB driver to be installed and works in all major
OS environments.
- If the WiFi credentials need to
be reconfigured and/or the board needs to connect to the new access point, the
user can enter the new credentials in the AVR-IoT webpage, download the WIFI.cfg
file, and then drag and drop this file into the CURIOSITY drive. The board
securely remembers the last successful connection to the access point.
