Firmware for the JGAurora A5S & A1

Two different firmware are available for the A5S and A1. There is the official firmware from the manufacturer, and there is a community-created custom firmware as well. There is a big difference between these firmware. If you don't like the community firmware, you can easily switch back to the official firmware โ€” there are no permanent changes made to your printer.

The A5S and A1 printers use the same motherboard, but they have a slight difference in their configuration, so make sure you install the correct firmware for your printer.
