RatOS configuration sets wrong pins for 2240 drivers

RatOS 2.1, board: Manta M8P + pi CM4 compute module with eMMC, BIGTREETECH TMC2240 V1.0 steppers. The SPI pins set by the RatOS configurator are wrong and cause error when attempting to move any axis. The makeshift solution is to overwrite the pins in printer.cfg The order of changes that got me this problem was as follows: Change board to Manta M8p 2.0 with standard 2209 steppers -> change steppers to 2240 and bridge the correct SPI pins on the board -> go to configuration and change the steppers there....

Nozzle Diameter settings not updating.

RatOS configuration HARDWARE SELECTION step, Firefox browser. When changing the nozzle size by clicking up or down the settings does not update, instead it is necessary to either write the number manually or after changing it with the arrows put the cursor in and press enter. This is most likely unintended behavior and could cause confusion (it did for me at first), probably caused by the arrows not automatically confirming the value with each press, only changing the displayed value....

Getting an error

Getting this error think it’s because the tool head I use does not use a hot end fan this is on a v2.4 and also I don’t know where in ratos to change the gear ratio for the z drives

New Box Turtle Setup - First one works great, second one fails as soon as print starts with error

So I've got 2 box turtle units hooked up to my VC3.1 (single extruder, multi-material), and boy has it been less than smooth sailing with RatRig's built-in T0 macro colliding with AFC and the slicer's T0/lane1 load command. Finally sorta worked around all that, added a filament cutter/purge/wiper system and got my first box turtle unit working quite well now. So now I'm moving on to stress testing the second unit, but when I start a print with it everything acts like it's working perfectly fine until the nozzle finally arrives where it would start printing. The second it arrives this error is thrown in the console. Anyone here who happens to be knowledgeable in both RatOS and AFC/BT, and might have any idea where I would look to figure out why my first box turtle works great, but the second one throws this error? I've found the macro and what I believe could be the specific line causing the error...but I'm super confused as to why it is doing this, when the first unit works perfectly fine. Both box turtles are configured identically 😦...

Help with Beacon Calibration

Since first assembly, beacon hasn't responded properly. Just tried re-flashing with an sd card rather than usb-stick and am running into a similar issue. Anyone know what the issue could be?

Beacon mesh calibrate seems to be offset to the left relative to centre

Using RatOS 2.1RC3 and a Beacon probe on a RatRig 400. When the printer is doing a mesh calibrate before print, it goes too far to the left and not far enough to the right. It even hits the x-axis end stop while doing the mesh calibrate. The location it uses to do a Z calibrate is exactly in the centre, so the centre point seems properly defined. What could be the reason and what is the way to fix this?...

Rpi runs hot @ Ratos 2.0

Hello. I recently connected an Rpi v1 camera to my Minion and set everything up according to the Crowsnest instructions, and it's working. I didn't even have any problems for days, but suddenly the Pi started overheating in standby mode, reaching between 52 and 60 degrees Celsius. I read in htop that Crowsnest is using a lot of power. Is something wrong since an update or is it configured incorrectly, or is the Rpi1 camera using so many resources?

Help with commisioning

Everything seems to be working. endstops, Beacon lights up when close to bed manually, etc. I run the BEACON_RATOS_CALIBRATE and the bed moved up a bit, and it shuts down with the Klipper reports: SHUTDOWN Internal error on command:"G28" Once the underlying issue is corrected, etc....
Solution:
Ok so I did a full reinstall of RatOS and flashed all boards and updated in correct order and bam!!! It’s working properly!!! Something must have happened in the first install somehow. Thanks for your time and attempt to help. It is very much appreciated!

Is there an overview/explanation of the user interface?

I would be particularly interested in the ‘macros’ JOIN SPOOL and M600.

Chamber temp not being used to preheat chamber

I have a BME280 running as my temp sensor in my chamer. It shows up in the on the dash, but RatOS wont wait until this sensor reaches the temp I provided in the filament. I get the feeling it still relies on the hotend thermistor as a chamber sensor. I have double-checked my slicer settings against the documentation. In the how to, its not really clear to me, if I configured the cfg correctly.
1. Bed Heater By default, RatOS uses the bed heater to heat the chamber. Either the hotend thermistor or a chamber thermistor will be used to monitor the initial chamber temperature. ...

Unable to home since updating ratOS

Hi guys, I recently updated my RatOS, klipper, mainsail e.t.c. after not touching it since June last year when I first updated to RatOS 2.1. Now, I am unable to home. When I try it says G28 and then "Must home axis first: 0.000 0.000 15.000 [0.000]". If I use the SET CENTER KINEMATIC POSITION macro it will then let me home. But then after a print its back to square 1, I ofcourse shouldn't have to do this for every home. I'm not sure where to start here, please can anyone advise?...

Printer Hardware Missing from Configurator Setup Wizard

Hey all, Is there a reason I'm no longer able to select my hardware in the RatOS Configurator Setup Wizard? I'm just trying to change my nozzle size back from a 0.2 to a 0.4mm. This is something I've done dozens of times before, but the printer hardware is no longer showing up in the Configurator....
Solution:
You have to select another printer, then reselect your original printer and make sure to click “start fresh”. Somehow the data in moonraker got corrupted.

stepper config , cant select the drivers that i am using using the ratos configurator

vcore 3.1 while installing new btt octopus v1.1 i notice in the config that all steppers are defined as tmc 2209 v1.3 but i have v1.2 , and i cant select v1.2 is it ok to continue ?
Solution:
@TheTik @blacksmithforlife 🇺🇸 thx for the help ! got the new stepper drivers today , plugged one in saw no noticable increase in temp of the octopus , switched on the 24v , all good . put in all the drivers and said a hail mary , switched it all on again , all good ! octopus sitting at a nice 25 degrees and everything working nice !

How do I stop the end print macro from clearing the homing state/turning off the motors?

The end macro always turns off the motors, can't find a setting to stop it doing that. Is there one?

"MCU 'toolboard_t0' shudown: ADC out of range" extruder temperature -125 not in range 0:350

I searched countless other posts which all have solutions I already implemented, and I started to post here when I figured it out.
I had the thermistor wires on the correct toolhead port, and measured the thermistor to have 1.089 kOhm, and I had the jumper on the correct two pins (which are quite mysterious btw, no other EBB42 v1.2 pinouts have those jumpers listed or shown on the pictures). Unbelievably, the issue was that the jumper was bad. I don't know if this is a common problem, but the jumper that came with the toolboard apparently didn't work. I replaced with one of the jumpers from the rest of the VC4 toolkit, and now everything works great! ...

Z-tilt configuration

When working on running the Pressure Advance config print. The x and y and z homes ok but when it starts the z-tilt calibration, it errors when it goes to the back left corner for being unable to see the probe. The reason why is, it has dropped the back motor down so the probe can't see the bed. I've reset the bed position a couple of times with the same result. What do I adjust to get it to not drop the back z motor down?
