A simple way to prevent RatOS from regenerating printer.cfg

Been looking around for solutions but couldn't find anything easy. I'm building a custom IDEX printer with an unsupported board and been wanting to run RatOS. My other printer is doing fine in a similar configuration, I never completed the setup wizard so RatOS won't touch any of my configuration files. However, I can't use live resonance analysis and VAOC unless I go through the setup wizard. Only solution I've been able to come up with so far is to modify a somewhat similar printer + board combination and use a few overrides in the config file. Adding a full on custom printer seems somewhat more challenging. Is there a simpler route that I'm missing? ...

Chamber Heater Control

Hey guys, I have an issue with the default inbuilt chamber heater controls that are built into RatOS. My setup is an IDEX 500 V-Core4, with a 300w ptc heater and Vindr 5015 bed fans. I have two chamber thermistors, with the main one being used by RatOS mounted on the rear extrusion just above the VAOC module, and a lower one at the base of the extrusion that is just being used to compare lower chamber temps to upper chamber temps....

I am trying to connect a BoxTurtle to my Ratrig V4. The machine runs on RatOS 2.1.X

The Box turtle requires its own macro for T0 but it keeps getting overwritten by the one provided by RatRig. Any way of fixing this?...

Tangle / clog detection on/off?

The matte filament I'm trying to print with seems to generate a lot of friction in the bowden tube, triggering the tangle detection in the smart sensor often. Is there a way to disable tangle / clog detection in the custom gcode for the filament in the slicer? Or maybe other ways to deal with this issue? I'm already using a bowden with larger ID to reduce friction.

temperature_MCU toolhead

Trying to work up a custom toolhead cooling setup for my EBB42. Problem is that when I try to set up a temperature fan for the toolboard MCU, I get the pin ADC used multiple times error, because the toolboard MCU it is already listed in the RATOS.cfg for temperature monitoring. If I delete the temperature_MCU monitoring lines in RATOS.cfg, it works. Is there a known or feasible workaround for this?...

Adjusting the Z-speed for V-Core 4.0 IDEX using RatOS 2.1

Hi everyone, I’m seeking assistance in adjusting the z-speed of my V-core 4 IDEX printer. I’d like to limit the z-speed to only 10 at all functions. I’ve noticed that the z-homing speed is set to 10 in RatOS.cfg or printer.cfg, but I’m not sure which one. It doesn’t seem to be related to the z-tilt (z movement) speed or the manual z-moving speed, which I’m believing it’s set higher than 10. This higher speed causes my printer to shake heavily, which I suspect is due to a slightly misaligned lead screw....
Solution:
I’ve discovered the solution by overriding the max_z_velocity and max_z_accel values in the printer.cfg file.

Installing a Cartographer to my 3.1 Vcore

Hey guys how would i go about changing the RatOS system to accept a Cartrapher ?

T1 hotend trouble

Don’t know if this is the right place to post this but I’m running out of ideas. With VC4 IDEX when I try to set T1 heat or heat it up with Load Filament macro it doesn’t heat up. Mainsail says “heater extruder1 not supported”. But if I run a T1 hotend PID it heats up exactly as intended. Both T0 & T1 are setup the same (Rapido 2 UHF and Orbiter v2) only difference is beacon on T0. T0 works fine consistently. Only T1 says “heater extruder1 not supported” have check printer.cfg and RatOS.cfg for any obvious differences but have not noticed anything. Please help, VAOC cal went pretty good, just want to load and test T1 thanks!...

Hybrid to IDEX.... no T1 but two T0

Finally finished my IDEX install and ran through the wizard to change the core config. When I get to the point of picking the toolboard it starts with T0 board slsection, then checks the flash, then goes again to T0 board selection, and skips the flash page to go strait to hardware selection ```pi@RatOS:~/klipper $ ls -l /dev/RatOS/ total 0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 Apr 25 23:12 0B00280010504B5735313720 -> ../ttyACM4...

How to address Host (RPI) gpio pin

Hi, i'm trying to switch to ratos and want to include my custom mainsail setting. Now i'm stuck with the lightbar i have installed. In my former printer.cfg i had the following: [mcu host] serial: /tmp/klipper_host_mcu ...
Solution:
Ohh looks like that is attached to the PI right? you probably just need to add to the USER OVERRIDES section of your printer.cfg (in ratos) ``` [output_pin caselight] pin: rpi:gpio17...

cant flash board

can someone help me with flashing my kraken?

Existing config autosave is corrupted error

Does anyone here have a printer.cfg file for an IDEX printer with filament sensors? Since I changed mine not even save_config works anymore and the sensors are so sensitive that they immediately pause printing at any major acceleration. And does anyone have a crowsnest.conf file that allows calibration with the camera without the T2 colliding with the rear bracket?...

update to 2.1 RC3 gives configuration error: 'allow_unknown_gcode_generator' is not valid

Recently installed RatOS 2.1 RC2. Updated RatOS to RC3 via mainsail. Subsequently updated RatOS Configurater upon which I now get the error shown in the image. How does one clean this up? Do I need to run configuration again?...
Solution:
sorry ratos doctor

ratos-configurator.service stuck

Hi all, while setting up 2.1.x on a new SD card I now have trouble accessing the configurator. Worked fine at the beginning but after updating all components (including 150 OS packages) all of a sudden the configurator service stopped working. A quick check shows the ratos-configurator.service is now stucked in state activating. Accessing the configurator web interface ends in a 502 bad gateway response. Any idea how to get this fixed?...

No longer able to connect

Hey guys/gals.... I turned my printer on today and I can no longer connect to it via my laptop. It's a vcore 3.1 , raspberry pi, octopus board and ebb tool board. I cannot connect via my phone anymore either which is telling me this is pi issue. I've tried rebooting it several times via turning power off, waiting and turning back on to no avail....the last print I tried to do failed and the computer was downstairs so I hard shut it down. Could I have corrupted the SD card requiring a complete r...

RatOS update all components stuck

I pressed update all on RatOS and it's been stuck on Updating npm and pnpm for 20 minutes. Do I need to wait more or can I safely unplug my printer out and back on?
Solution:
thank you all for the help, especially for the refresh shortcut

Running ethernet via a pc

Hello all, I've just moved to a new apartment and haven't had a chance to get WiFi yet and am currently just using my 5g hotspot for everything(the Pi wont connect to it), I was wondering if I could use an ethernet cable from my PC (which is connected to the hotspot) to the PI. Just making a sanity check before I go buy loads of ethernet cable. Any advise would be appreciated....
