Assembly
Firefly wiring is straightforward: connect the controller and power adapter.
1. Clamp the mounting plate to the desk

2. Fasten the arm base to the plate with screws at the four corners

3. Connect the XT2+2 cable
The two ports are internally connected; use either one.

4. Connect the cable to the controller CAN port
Note
- For a single-arm setup, connect the arm to
can0. - For multiple arms, only two arms may be connected to one controller at a time, on
can0andcan1respectively. - Controller models may vary by shipment; follow the same connection rules.

5. Install the gripper (if included)
Coming soon.
6. Check the arm termination resistor
A termination resistor must be present at the arm end; if a gripper is installed, the resistor moves to the gripper.

7. Connect the power adapter

Assembly complete.
