## Flasher
|
||||
|
||||
### Why does my operating system flag Meshtastic Flasher as having malware?
|
||||
|
||||
The flasher contains no malware and completely passed the Microsoft malware scanning. It appears that a lot of file download services are using the Windows Defender data, so if you're seeing alerts of a detected trojan please [update your Windows Defender definitions](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/wdsi/defenderupdates).
|
||||
|
||||
### What if I'm still having issues on Windows 10?
|
||||
|
||||
It's been reported that `App execution aliases` might conflict with one another and prevent python3 from being able to run properly. There is an example of a fix located [here](https://github.com/meshtastic/Meshtastic-gui-installer/issues/154).

`FIXED_PIN` uses the fixed PIN that should then be additionally specified.
|
||||
Finally, `NO_PIN` disables PIN authentication.
|
||||
|
||||
### Fixed PIN
|
||||
|
||||
If your pairing mode is set to `FIXED_PIN`, the default value is 123456. For all other pairing modes, this number is ignored. A custom integer (6 digits) can be set via the Bluetooth config options.
|
||||
|
||||
### Default Pairing Mode
|
||||
|
||||
The default pairing mode will be determined based on whether the device has or does not have a screen attached to it during the first boot (or with a stale device state) unless manually configured via the Bluetooth config options.
|
||||
|
||||
- **Screen Attached:** If your device boots up for the first time (or with a stale device state), and a screen is detected, the default pairing mode will be set to `RANDOM_PIN`. Should the attached screen be removed after the device has already been booted, the default pairing mode of `RANDOM_PIN` will remain unless manually changed to `FIXED_PIN` or `NO_PIN`. It is recommended the pairing mode be updated prior to removing the attached screen.
|
||||
- **No Screen Attached:** If your device boots up for the first time (or with a stale device state), and no screen is detected, the default paring mode will be set to `FIXED_PIN` with the aforementioned default value unless manually configured to a custom value.
|
||||
- **No Screen Attached:** If your device boots up for the first time (or with a stale device state), and no screen is detected, the default paring mode will be set to `FIXED_PIN` with the default value listed below unless manually configured to a custom value.
|
||||
|
||||
### Fixed PIN
|
||||
|
||||
If your pairing mode is set to `FIXED_PIN`, the default value is 123456. For all other pairing modes, this number is ignored. A custom integer (6 digits) can be set via the Bluetooth config options.

## Flashing the Device
|
||||
|
||||
The Meshtastic Flasher will flash the latest firmware on esp32 and nrf52 devices. This is a newly developed application (as of February 1, 2022), so there may be some issues discovered as it is tested by users.
|
||||
|
||||
There are three steps:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Click the **GET VERSIONS** button to get the versions available (from GitHub).
|
||||
2. Click the **DETECT DEVICE** button to determine the port and device variant connected.
|
||||
3. Click the **FLASH** button to flash the version selected using the port selected to the device.
|
||||
|
||||
## Issues?
|
||||
|
||||
If you run into an issue, please create a ticket here: [Flasher Issues](https://github.com/meshtastic/Meshtastic-gui-installer/issues)
|
||||
|
||||
The code can be found at the [Meshtastic-gui-installer repo](https://github.com/meshtastic/Meshtastic-gui-installer)
|
||||
|
||||
## Known limitations
|
||||
|
||||
The following are known limitations:
|
||||
|
||||
- Raspberry Pi is not available, since it is arm-based and there are no pre-built libraries for [PySide](https://wiki.qt.io/Qt_for_Python)
|
||||
- Ubuntu 20.04 is the version used for testing, it may work with other versions.
|
||||
- See [README](https://github.com/meshtastic/Meshtastic-gui-installer/blob/master/README.md) for more details.
|
||||
|
||||
## Connect and Configure Device
|
||||
|
||||
After flashing the Meshtastic firmware to the device, you can proceed with the initial configuration.
