Install Universal CYD RIFE
This erases the previous firmware and installs the complete RIFE application with its first-run helper.
After Finished, press EN/RST once if the board does not restart automatically.
One firmware for unknown CYD revisions
Flash once, configure the screen in the browser, then use the full RIFE interface.
The display and touch helpers are built into the RIFE firmware. Saving the final setting restarts the same device directly into RIFE—there is no second firmware installation.
Use desktop Chrome or Edge over HTTPS. Connect with a USB data cable and close Arduino IDE or other serial monitors.
Five short setup stages
1. Controller
2. Any working rotation
3. Mirroring
4. Colour and inversion
