This is a detailed guide for what you can try to do first if your device is stuck.

Every Linux platform-based Anviz device has a debug mode. If your device is stuck and powering it on and off doesn’t help, you can try to get in the debug mode to not only restart the device and update firmware but also backup data and recover data.
