-To make it as easy as possible for you to update the Interface's firmware, we included multiple update methods, so you can choose the one most suited to your individual needs.   Easiest is for the Interface to update its own firmware via the internet over Wifi, but if you do not have Wifi out in the workshop, we also provide another method to update the firmware via a USB Flash drive. We hope that this will encourage you to always stay up to date and on the latest firmware, so you do not miss out on improvements and new features +Firmware Changelog: See https://github.com/OpenBuilds/firmware/blob/main/interface/CHANGELOG.txt
