CLI

The CLI tab gives direct, text-based access to the flight controller's command-line interface -- the same interface documented in the CLI Command Reference.

The CLI works independently of the normal MSP-based configuration protocol, which makes it the fallback the Configurator switches to automatically when it can't fully validate a connected firmware version (see First Connection). It's also the most reliable way to take a full backup (dump all) or a compact changed-settings backup (diff all).
