The standalone X offer contains the device and a USB-C-to-USB-C cable, without an R3covery card. DCENT’s current new-wallet setup starts with preparing that card separately, backing up to it, then viewing and verifying 24 recovery words on the touchscreen. Plan for the card before following that setup.
Write the 24 words in order and keep them offline, separately from the device. X has a 4–8-digit device PIN; the R3covery card uses a separate six-digit PIN. Restoring from the card requires that card PIN, and ten consecutive wrong attempts erase the card’s backup. The written words remain a separate recovery route.
For an existing compatible backup, X’s manual restoration accepts 12, 18 or 24 words, entered on its touchscreen’s grouped-letter keypad (T9). BIP39 is the recovery-word format used here. Another wallet can derive different addresses from the same words, so check its account and network rules and compare the restored addresses with the original ones.
After restoring from words or the card, re-add the coin accounts you used before and synchronize them with the app. If you used an additional passphrase, enter exactly the same passphrase afterward. The card backs up the default wallet’s recovery information; it does not store that extra passphrase.
