    1. Open mBlock 5 (PC client or web version), click +add in the lower left Devices area, select mBot from the Device Library, click Connect, and select the Upload mode. (Live mode: you can click on the blocks to see the real-time program running effect, but you need to keep the cable connected to the computer. Upload mode: you can upload a program to mBot, and you can run the program after you unplug the cable.)
