Install Image to eMMC from USB port (Radxa CM3 IO)

Radxa CM3 IO supports Maskrom mode, which is a special operation mode for CPU to wait for USB OTG port command. The PC tools we use to communicate with Radxa cm3 io in Maskrom mode are the rkdeveloptool on linux/macOS PC and RKDevTool on Windows PC.

Alternatively, if you are running Android and can access ADB, you can reboot the device to loader mode 'adb reboot bootloader' then use the rkdeveloptool to reset the device into maskrom mode 'rkdeveloptool rd 3' or Windows RKDevTool Switch button to go to maskrom mode.
