Software
| Receiving Card Firmware | Don't upgrade unless you have a specific reason to. Receiving-card firmware is not like a controller update that adds features — each version simply supports a different group of driver ICs. Flash only the version that matches your panel's driver IC; if your screen already works, leave it alone. Find your driver IC to see the exact version, or upload your config and we'll read it. |
