Firmware Update

The Dust Devil firmware update is facilitated using STMicro's internal bootloader and thus requires installing their USB Device Firmware Update (DFU) driver.

This can be installed using STM32CubeProgrammer software for all STM32.

After installing their software, the DFU in FS Mode device will appear in the connection window after issuing a firmware update request.
