Before using the Updater, unplug any other serial devices that are
connected to your computer, then follow the instructions below:
1) Download and install DJI Assistant 2 from the official DJI
website. (http://www.dji.com/e5000/info#downloads)
2) Connect the Updater to the powertrain with the data cable
and to your computer with a Micro USB cable.
3) Connect a 12S LiPo battery to the powertrain to supply power
to the system. Do not disconnect the powertrain from the
computer or power supply until the configuration is complete.
4) Launch DJI Assistant 2. When a connection is established,
the software will display the connected devices.

Arduino board). Unplug the other FTDI devices, restart
the ESC and DJI Assistant 2, and try again.

following order: Connect the ESC to your computer,
connect the power supply to the ESC, and then launch
DJI Assistant 2.
