# Downloads

Welcome to the Motion4Sim Download Center. One download — the Dashboard. It brings the firmware for your controller with it.

#### 🖥️ Motion4Sim Dashboard

The **Motion4Sim Dashboard** is the central management software for your Motion4Sim system.\
Use it to configure, monitor and fine-tune your motion setup — and to keep the controller firmware up to date.

* **Functionality:**
  * Controller configuration
  * Motion Cueing & adjustments
  * Firmware updates for all boards

👉 **Download:** [Motion4Sim Dashboard](https://m4s-service.motion4sim.com/m4sdashboard/download.php)

See [Installation & Connecting](/software/dashboard/installation.md) for the install steps and how to connect the controller.

#### 🧩 Firmware

**There is no separate firmware download any more.** The Dashboard checks the server itself, downloads the right firmware for your board — STM32 (PCB 3.xx and newer) as well as Atmel (PCB 1.xx / 2.xx) — verifies it, and flashes it.

Open **Configuration → Firmware** in the Dashboard and press **Check for updates**.

{% endcontent-ref %}

{% hint style="danger" %}
**Do not unplug, power off or reset the controller until it has fully rebooted after flashing.** A firmware update can also install a new bootloader and governor firmware during the first reboot. Interrupting that step can leave the board unable to start.
{% endhint %}

#### ℹ️ Notes

* Keep Dashboard and firmware in step — update the app, then let it update the controller.
* The Dashboard matches the firmware to your board, so you cannot flash the wrong file by accident.
* If you're unsure which board you have, check your PCB version or ask in the support channel.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.motion4sim.com/reference-and-support/downloads.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
