Figure 975: Status LED

Buttons

There are three (3) buttons on the backside of the case: Volume +, Volume -, and boot mode selection, as the figure below shows.

../../../../../_images/101-Buttons1.jpeg

Figure 976: Buttons

The AIO-CM4-101 industrial Pi PC boots from the internal eMMC by default. If you want it to boot from the USB TYPE-C connector, please press the Boot Mode button before power ON, and release it 3 seconds after power ON. If you use CS12800RA4101A_C121, the Boot Mode button had been changed to VOL+, you should press VOL+ to enter USB download mode.
