Chapter 3: Modes of Operation
mioX interfaces have three modes of operation:
1. Power Off
2. Normal Mode
3. Bootloader Mode
Power Off
The mioX interface is powered off and not operational.
Normal Mode
As you might guess, this is the normal operational mode that you will use nearly all of the time.
In this mode, the device is powered on and operates as a fully functional interface.
Bootloader Mode
Bootloader Mode is a special service mode used to perform firmware updates. Normally you
will use
Auracle for X-Series
software to update your firmware and
Auracle for X-Series
will
automatically switch your mioX between Normal and Bootloader modes as necessary. In rare
situations, mioX users may prefer to manually update their firmware via the bootloader. This
manual process is described in detail in
Appendix B (Using Bootloader Mode)
