Installing the board configuration

Installing the board configuration

MobiFlight workshops use a Mega 2560 Pro Mini board with a pre-defined device configuration. This configuration maps the devices to the appropriate pins for use with a prototyping board v2.

Use the following steps to upload the configuration to a board.

Important

These steps assume the board already has the appropriate MobiFlight firmware installed. To install the firmware follow the flashing guide.

Open the Modules dialog

Click the MobiFlight Modules button on the toolbar of the main MobiFlight window.
