# CANBUS Bitrate Switching

## Do You Need To Switch Bitrate?

Are you running CANBUS at a different bitrate? If you arent using the default 1M (1000000) go ahead and use the steps below to swap to whatever version you need.

***

## Step 1. Plug In Cartographer via CANBUS

## Step 2. SSH Into Your Host Device & Run The Script

```bash
cd ~
if [ -d ~/cartographer_firmware/ ]; then
    echo "Directory Exists - Starting Firmware Script"
    cd ~/cartographer_firmware/
    git pull
else
    git clone https://github.com/Cartographer3D/cartographer_firmware.git
fi
~/cartographer_firmware/scripts/firmware.py
```
