||
Both a **Chromadeck** and a **Chromalink** cable are necessary to connect to or update a Duo. | ||
|
||
Before connecting to or updating Duo firmware, always ensure the **Chromadeck** is [up to date](chromadeck_upgrade_guide.html) | ||
first. | ||
<div style="margin-left: 50px; margin-right: 50px; margin-bottom: 30px;" markdown="1"> | ||
|
||
- **Use a data-capable USB cable, power-only cables won't work.** | ||
- Windows will notify upon successful connection | ||
- Mac may work but is not officially supported. | ||
</div> | ||
|
||
With your Duo, Chromadeck, Chromalink, Computer, and USB-C cable ready, proceed to the next step. | ||
|
||
--- | ||
|
||
**Remove the Casing** | ||
|
||
- Start by carefully removing the Duo from it's case. It should come out with little resistance. | ||
- If you find it does not come out easily, check to see if the bulb is caught on the opening as shown in the 2nd gif. | ||

<div style="text-align: center; margin: 5px"> | ||
<p style="color:white;"><span style="color:yellow;">⚠</span> <b>Warning</b> <span style="color:yellow;">⚠</span><br> | ||
<strong>This is a potentially dangeous step!</strong></p> | ||
</div> | ||
|
||
{: .warning} | ||
Failure to remove the battery before connecting to the Chromalink will cause the battery's lifespan to shorten dramatically. | ||
Removing the battery incorrectly can break the battery connector, rendering the chip broken and unrepairable. | ||
StoneOrbits is not responsible for any damage to the Duo or battery caused this way. | ||
|
||
|
||
- In order to safely update the Duo, the battery must be carefully disconnected first. | ||
- **Gently** and **peel** the Duo battery away from the Duo like shown below. | ||

**Setting up the Chromadeck and Chromalink** | ||
- Connect the **Chromalink** cable to the **Chromadeck**, then plug the **Chromadeck** into the PC and power it on. | ||

|
||
**Connecting the Duo to the Chromalink** | ||
- Seat the Duo into the **Chromalink** dock and slide it into place like shown below | ||
|
||
<div style="text-align: center; margin: 20px"> | ||

|
||
**Verify Connection** | ||
|
||
- To verify the Duo is securely connected to the Chromalink, press the button to turn it on. | ||
- If it does not turn on, make sure your Chromadeck is on first and review the previous steps to make sure there are no mistakes. | ||
|
||

# Reassembling Your Duo | ||
|
||
- remove the **Duo** from the **Chromalink** and reconnect the battery. Make sure the corners of the connector are flush for a reliable connection. | ||
- click the button to power on the Duo and verify the battery is fully connected. | ||
|
||
- If it works, insert it back into the case. Otherwise recheck the battery connector. | ||
