Getting Started

Setup

EtcherPro is supplied with a mains power cable according to your region's plug standards
On the back of the device, there are two groups of sockets, labelled as IN and OUT
Plug the AC power cable to the socket labelled POWER IN, and then to the mains outlet
The device should boot up automatically; wait until you see the Etcher interface show up
[Warning] Please avoid using adaptors or extension leads, as this may damage the device or cause it to malfunction

The device will prompt you to connect to a local network the first time it boots (you can skip this step if you are not connecting to WiFi)
Select the network to which you want to connect, type the password and select OK
You can access the WiFi settings by selecting the WiFi icon at the top left corner of the screen

From the Etcher menu, select Flash from file
Plug a drive that contains the image you would like to flash into the slot with the blue-colored blinking LED
Select the image you want to flash from the file browser and select OK
Plug at least one drive or device into an available slot. The plugged target(s) will be selected automatically and the LEDs will turn white
Select Flash, to begin the flashing process
The LED of each slot will first blink purple for flashing and then green for validating
Once the flashing is complete, the LEDs will turn green for successfully flashed drives, and red for the failed ones
You may safely unplug the drives when flashing is complete

Connecting up to 10 EtcherPro devices in a row to flash up to 160 targets simultaneously

EtcherPro allows you to chain both data and power. To do this, you will need a male to female IEC C13/C14 power extension lead (min 10A rated) to connect one EtcherPro to another
Plug the power extension lead to the input side of the leading EtcherPro, and then to the output side of the successive EtcherPro
The last EtcherPro of the stack should be plugged directly to the mains power socket
From this point on, only the screen of the leading EtcherPro will operate. Treat the whole stack as one device, and follow the steps laid before to complete your specifically chosen task

EtcherPro is set to automatically go into sleep mode after a few minutes
You may change this setting by selecting the settings icon on the top right corner of the screen
You may put the device to sleep manually by selecting the sleep button on the top left corner of the screen
To wake up your device, just tap anywhere on the screen
It is not necessary to power off your device, but if you would like to, you may simply unplug the power-in cable
