Capacity to burn hex file

Open FernandoGarcia opened this issue 9 years ago • 2 comments

Hi!

Please consider add the capacity to burn a hex file to the board.

It will allow update the firmware remotely.

It will be useful to who have the printer in a place with hard access as an enclosure for electronics stuffs.

When I need update the code I have the open the enclosure, bring the notebook next of my printer it's a pain.

For Windows I know a simple tool called Xloader for Linux I don't know a similar.

Best regards.

In case someone is interested to update firmware remotely I found two options:

1 - Install the PIO remote on Raspberry then compile and burn the code using Atom / PIO IDE.

https://docs.platformio.org/en/latest/installation.html

2 - Install Arduino CLI on Raspberry then compile and burn the code using command line.

My step by step here: https://github.com/arduino/arduino-cli/issues/17

Before try burn the firmware should stop Astrobox service with: sudo service astrobox stop
