v1.0a​

CapBot v1.0 has a physical switch (SW4) to cut the UART lines from the DAP-link on-board debugger. This switch should be enabled when printing to a serial terminal over USB.

Furthermore, another physical switch (SW3) cuts the SWD lines used for programming the µProcessor. This switch should be enabled in order to flash.

v1.1a​

Nothing special (yet).

v1.1b​

[!WARNING] The pins IO1, IO2 and IO3 on the feather-header correspond with D15, D16 and SW2 respectively. Make sure that these are not shorted accidentally because of this. Schematic view
