Configuring Pixhawk in QGroundControl

Hi everyone out there. I am trying to configure a Pixhawk light controller using Q Ground Control software ( Mission Planner is not available foe Mac computers)
I have plugged in the USB cable to connect PC and Pixhawk with lights illuminating to let me low the connection is god, but the configuring options that should appear are absent. Do I need to also connect my flight battery? Are there any other reason people know that show this symptom. Anyideas? Thanks Jeff.

On top left corner, you see the Q logo, click on it and select vehicle setup and check for firmware. Once you have proper firmware installed you can configure it.

Hi there. Thanks for your reply. I am aware of the process. My issue is cannot get any response from Firmware option, hence no other config options. I know the flight controller is connected, because it lights up. Do I need connect my flight batten too, or not.Thanks
