## IMPORTANT NOTICE
The batch of Labrador boards produced in February 2020 were configured incorrectly at the factory and **will not be detected** by older releases of the Labrador software interface.
There is a fix in the latest version of the software (July 2020 Continuous release) that will automatically reconfigure the board upon connection.
Please update your software if you are having any issues!

I recommend always downloading the latest win32, osx-dmg or linux-appimage version, depending on whether you're on Windows, macOS or Linux. Raspberry Pi downloads are not currently automatically built, but an older version is provided at the link above.
