reTerminal DM4 — deploy or backup via USB boot mode or network boot

Connect the device

Choose one:

USB boot mode

  1. 1 Set the reTerminal to boot mode: fit the eMMC disable jumper (e.g. J2 / nRPIBOOT).
  2. 2 Connect the reTerminal’s USB slave port to the Proxmox host. Power on. The device will appear in “Device detected” below; choose Backup or Deploy.
  3. 3 When done, remove the jumper and power cycle so it boots from eMMC.

Network boot

  1. 1 Enable network boot on the CM4 (e.g. BOOT_ORDER=0x21) and ensure it can reach this server.
  2. 2 Boot the device over the network with an environment that runs the provisioning client (register + poll for action). It will show under “Device detected (Network)”. Choose Backup or Deploy.

Device detected — choose action

When a device is detected (USB boot mode or network boot), it will appear below. Choose Backup to save its eMMC to a file, or Deploy to write the golden image to it.
