9. If you’re not sure if the Flagbox is working, simply press “Open test data Editor” and start pressing features you’d like to test.

**Note: there is a chance your Flagbox will initially be upside down or sideways. This is common, to adjust the screens orientation head back over to the RGB Matrix tab and click your "Hardware settings" blue button on the left. Here you can adjust the Rotation.

If you are using 2 Flagboxes, set RGB Matrix Content to "1" on the first Box, and "2" for the second if you want to assign different profiles to each Flagbox
