On the WebUI, navigate to Update and press on select firmware file. +From the unzipped files, select the right .bin file for your hardware and needs. +- If you use an ESP8266, select the file ending with esp8266.bin +- If you use an ESP8266 with prometheus, select the file ending with esp8266_prometheus.bin +- If you use an ESP32, select the file ending with esp32.bin +- If you use an ESP32 with prometheus, select the file ending with esp32_prometheus.bin + +Note: if you want to use prometheus, the usage of an ESP32 is recommended, since the ESP8266 is at its performance limits and therefore can cause stability issues. + +After selecting the right firmware file, press update. Your AHOY-DTU will now install the new firmware and reboot. ## Additional Notes ### MI Inverters
