 ### Changed
 * Broker is no longer configured at compile time, but is maintained in device memory
 * MSRV bumped to v1.66
+* The static IP of stabilizer can no longer be configured at compilation time, but now uses device
+memory storage instead. It is now configured via the USB port.
 * The IIR (biquad) filter used for PID action has changed its serialization format.
   See also the `iir_coefficients` Python CLI implementation.
 * Bumped MSRV 1.66.0 -> 1.66.1

-Stabilizer supports run-time settings configuration using MQTT.
+Stabilizer supports run-time settings configuration using MQTT or the USB port.
 
 Settings can be stored in the MQTT broker so that they are automatically applied whenever
 Stabilizer reboots and connects. This is referred to as "retained" settings. Broker implementations
 may optionally store these retained settings as well such that they will be reapplied between
 restarts of the MQTT broker.
 
+Stabilizer also supports storing run time settings on the device. Any configurations saved to
+stabilizer via the USB port will be automatically reapplied when Stabilizer reboots.
+MQTT settings retained on the broker or settings published after the device has connected to the broker override the settings saved on Stabilizer.

 Settings are specific to an application. If two identical settings exist for two different
 applications, each application maintains its own independent value.
