To prepare the DevKit device Download the latest AmoebaBot-IoT-Central-1.4-Beta.bin Azure IoT Central firmware for the MXChip from the firmware folder on GitHub.
Connect the DevKit device to your development machine using a USB cable. In Windows, a file explorer window opens on a drive mapped to the storage on the DevKit device. For example, the drive might be called AZ3166 (D:).
Drag the AmoebaBot-IoT-Central-1.31.bin (found in firmware folder) file onto the drive window. When the copying is complete, the device reboots with the new firmware.
