Flashing Procedure:

  1. Enter DFU Mode:
    Press and hold the "BOOT" button (located near the JTAG connector) while applying power. Release only after the status LED turns solid amber.
  2. Backup Existing Calibration:
    Run: gazelle_flasher --backup --device G-97rg6w --output cal_backup.bin
    This step saves factory-tuned ADC offsets.
  3. Erase Flash (Optional):
    gazelle_flasher --erase --force (Only if downgrading or recovering from corruption).
  4. Write New Firmware:
    gazelle_flasher --write --file G-97rg6w_v3.0.2.bin --verify
  5. Restore Calibration:
    gazelle_flasher --restore --input cal_backup.bin
  6. Reset:
    Power cycle the device. The LED should return to normal operation (green heartbeat pattern).
