5 Firmware version recommendation
Different models of robotic arms require different firmware to be burned. The following are the firmware versions recommended for burning different models of robotic arms.
myCobot 280 series
The myCobot 280 series has 4 versions: M5 version, PI version, ardunio version and jetsonnano version. Different versions have different core models, and the firmware and versions required to be burned are also different.
Robot version number | Core | Required firmware to be burned | Recommended firmware and version |
M5 version | M5Stack-Basic | miniRobot firmware | Recommended to burn v2.1 version, you can use drag teaching, wifi, Bluetooth and other functions |
Atom | atomMain firmware | For products with serial numbers ER28001202200415 and earlier, or products without serial numbers, it is recommended to burn v4.1; for products with serial numbers ER28001202200416 and later, it is recommended to burn v5.1 | |
PI version | RaspberryPI 4B | ubuntu firmware | Recommend burning V18.04. version |

myStudio environment setup
myStudio download and installation
Note: The installation path of myStudio cannot have any spaces
Download address:
- After entering the download address, click
myStudio
on the right and select the corresponding version to download.
- Different suffixes represent different systems, please download the corresponding version:
- *.tra.xz —— Linux system
- *.dmg —— Mac system
- *.exe —— Window system
You can download it according to your computer system.
Note: Please download the latest version. You can view the current version in the downloaded myStudio interface and update to the latest version.
Install the driver
Users can click the button below to download the corresponding CP210X or CP34X driver package according to their operating system. After decompressing the package, select the installation package corresponding to the operating system bit number for installation.
There are currently two driver chip versions, CP210X (for CP2104 version) and CP34X (for CH9102 version) driver compression packages. If you are not sure which USB chip your device uses, you can install both drivers at the same time. ( CH9102_VCP_SER_MacOS may show an error during installation, but it has actually been installed, so just ignore it.)
For Mac OS, make sure the system "Preferences->Security and Privacy->General" is set before installation, and allow downloads from the App Store and approved developers.

- MacOS
CP34X
Download the terminal Atom serial port driver
- Windows10
How to distinguish CP210X and CP34X chips
- As shown in the figure below, open Device Manager and check Ports (COM and LPT)
- If Port (COM and LPT) shows USB-Enhanced-SERIAL CH9102, it is CP34X chip
- If Port (COM and LPT) shows Silicon Labs CP210x USB to UART Bridge, it is CP210X chip
