  1. To avoid software and firmware version incompatibility, please follow the update sequence and complete both software and all four firmware updates.

  2. After the update, the right-hand glove may experience disconnection. Please manually pair it again.

  3. Firmware Update Depends on Driver Version: Only the latest version of the driver can update the glove and receiver firmware to the latest version. Please ensure your driver is updated to the latest version for the full update experience.

a. Wired update for the gloves:

① Connect the data cable to the Type-C interface on the side of the gloves near the little finger to obtain the glove information.

② When a new version of the gloves is detected, click the update button at the bottom of the gloves.

③ After the update is completed, do not unplug the data cable yet. Wait for the automatic restart (about 10 seconds), or press and hold the power button for about 10 seconds to turn on the device manually.

b. Wireless update for the gloves:

① The gloves are in a normal wireless connection state, and the version information of the gloves is displayed on the page.

② Check whether the current version of the gloves supports wireless update.

③ After confirming that there is no error, click the update button at the bottom of the gloves.

④ After the update is completed, you need to turn on the device manually (press and hold for about 10 seconds).

  1. During the firmware update process, switching the update method is not supported.

  2. After updating some firmware versions, the glove channels may be adjusted, causing the glove to lose connection. Please pair the glove for a secure connection.
