+It is recommended to update to the newest stable release when you first receive your device to ensure you are up to date.
 
 Once your Iron has been flashed, on first power on it _may_ warn you about the system settings being reset.
 _Do not panic_; this is 100% completely normal. This is here to note to you that they have been reset to handle the internal structure changing.

 Aside from the below, keep in mind IronOS is really designed for soldering irons. This has expanded out into hot-plates as they are exceptionally similar devices.

 ## Hard requirements
 
 1. Supported processor (Arm Cortex or RISC-V). (Though generally anything that has an existing FreeRTOS port is possible).
 2. 64K of flash or larger (See note A)
 3. 16K of ram or larger
 4. Device has one or more heating elements that can be controlled by a main temperature sensor

 7. Known pinmap for the microcontroller. (see note B)

 In order to be able to write the interfacing code to communicate with the hardware, we need to know what pins on the microcontroller go to what hardware.
 It is also loosely required to have an understanding of the rest of the device, we do not need details on a lot of the boring aspects,but if for example a USB-PD interface IC is used we would want to know which one.
