extruder not heating correctly "verify_heater" issue where it sits at 150 C

Hi All, I'm having an issue trying to set up my extruder. I get the issue shown in the first image, other people have had the issue but with slightly different solutions. I see others have had a thermistor/sensor setup issue in their config files, however i didn't have the sensor heading in my config file, it looked like what is shown in the second image. with nozzle diameter dir_pin, control, pid_kp etc. After seeing other peoples config setups that included sensor type etc. I went and found the rapido (my hotend) .cfg file, which had all the info I was missing and copied the info from this (see third image) and added it into my config file where all the dir_pin, control, pid_kp etc. was that other people didn't have....
Solution:
that looks like its worked thankyou!!!!!!

Belt issues

So I have two issues going on with my upper belt that I am going to replace. The first is I am getting some rubbing on the top of the belt near the motor/idler near the motor that I believe is rubbing on the idler as I have already adjusted the pulley on the motor. What are my options for trying to fix it other than disasembling the printer and trying to re-square the frame? Could I fit a space under the bearing stack to move it up? The second is that I have a spot on the belt that is almost wor...

Bad First Layer Outside of Probed Area

Basically always getting bad first layer on the right side of the plate where the probe can't reach. I don't know what Klipper does, if it guesses what the area is like past the probed max area, or what. What it is doing is moving the nozzle too far away so the last 3cm on the entire right side is always bad. The klipper settings for bed mesh and documentation don't make mention of what it does for the area. I've squared the frame the best I can, the 3 points that are probed are within 0.02mm of each other, the bed just isn't the greatest I guess but usually the heightmap is less than 0.17mm tolerance....

Need link to eva extruder files

I have a ratrig Vcore 3 (not upgraded to 3.1), and the cooling ducts snapped off during a bad print fail. I've tried looking for where the print files are hosted without much success. Can someone please me a pointer on where to download the part I need? Thanks....

Relative_Reference_Index leftover in update blocks Voron to start.

Hi @miklschmidt , I have recently updated my Ratos operated voron to the latest and found out that you have left the relative_reference_index entry under bed_mesh and the latest klipper update removed it, so it wont start now. Can you please do a quick modification in the RatOS folder so we can start our printers anytime soon? If there is a workaround until the official release please do not hesitate to share. ...

WHYYYYYYYYYYY

i got vcore 3 running ratos with beacon rev h.. issue after i do all the calibrations for the beacon ,then i do test print the 1st print does good then straight after the snd print it scrapes the bed ,, why the hell dose the bed keep hitting the bed...i don't get it. and when i do get it to work i do i reboot and the setting are not saved and im stuck having to repeat the process...

Frankenstein Upgrade of a CR10 keeps going to PAUSE

Hey! I upgraded my old CR10 that, since I got my VCore3.1 500, just sits there and collects dust. I got an direct extruder, an Octopus V1.1 and a BLTouch - I am running the board with the original 12V powersupply. No filament runout sensor yet. I installed the latest RatOS on the RPi 3 that used to be the home to Octoprint. Sensorless homing works, PIDs are optimized, bed is level and so on... If I start a new print the printer goes through the START_PRINT macro (I used the v_minion templates and then modified what I needed from there) - and then it starts printing for maybe 2 seconds and then goes to PAUSE - the console shows no hint for the reason. THe CPU of the Pi is at about 20% load - memory at around 50% , all temperatures are super stable - Octopus at 40°C, Pi at 56°C...

IDM configuration troubles - 'Move out of range: 20.000 -7.000 2.000 [0.000]

I am having some trouble setting up my IDM bed mesh sensor. When i want to start a bed mesh I get the following message 'Move out of range: 20.000 -7.000 2.000 [0.000]. What do i need to adjust for it to ignore this range?

X and Y motor axis confused even after swapping wires on mainboard

Whenever I home the printer the x-axis homes correctly and when the y gantry hits the switch the led turns green but the gantry mashes itself into the switch.

Extruder at constant 158.9c reading

I'm guessing this is a dead thermistor but I'm just asking for where I can even get one or if there's a solution perhaps.

Hotend thermistor/heater degradation?

This is something new that I was surprised to experience. I have a Rapido on my V-MiniON, and I used to print PETG with no problem at 230 degrees. Recently (starting yesterday, actually), I started to print something and ecperienced all tell-tales of "hotend too cold". Reported temperature was 235 degrees Celsius, +/- 0.1 degrees, but as soon as printing speed started to exceed a measly 50 mm/s, the material became opaque, layer adhesion became crap, etc. ...

Y Stepper motor only move one direction

Hi, I just got a Rat Rig V-core 3.1 standard kit. I am having a problem where the Y stepper motor only moves in one direction. When the axes are jogged using the interface the printer only moves towards negative Y and Positive X. The attached pictures show the input given and how the printer moves in response. What I have tried for troubleshooting:...

mcu replacment

Hi simple question Patient VCore 3.1 500 MCU need to be replaced MCU: BTT Octopus 1.1 RatOS stands on RPi 4B...
Solution:
no need to reinstall ratos (that is on the raspberry pi). Just run through the configurator again and have it flash the firmware to the octopus replacement and then update your printer.cfg if you are using a different board

Printer stops while priming nozzle

Hey, for some reason my VCore 3 300mm stops while doing the prime blob. It stops the second that the bed is supposed to go down and the printhead backwards. I havent changed the hardware or setup of the printer. It just stopped working a few days ago. The only thing that changed, is that i have a new pc, and a factory reset slicer. For the slicer setup I have copied the start gcode from the RatOS Setup page into orca slicer. But I dont think the gcode is the issue, since the identical gcode that has worked before, dosent work now. I am really confused and frustrated, and would be happy to get some help :/...

orbiter filament sensor setup?

I have an orbiter v2 with filament sensor connected to an ebb36. The runout button is connected to pin PB4, unload button to pin PB3 and those pins are a part of the I2C socket pins. The unload button functions as expected but the runout button does not. The print continues to run after the filament has runout and the sensor led has turned red on the sensor signifying a runout. I also get a console message "Printing! Can't unload filament right now!" which made me think the buttons were reverse...

prints no longer start

I have been playing around with the BTT SFS V2 Filament sensor a bunch and making lots of changes in my printer.cfg Up to this point it seemed to be a weird bug that only happened occasionally while experimenting with the filament sensor gcode insertion: I print and everything is normal from heating the bed to pre-heating the hot end, and meshing. However as soon as the hot end is heating to its final printing temp the print never starts. It just hangs on heating the extruder yet the temps are reading correctly and are at temp. ...
Solution:
Btw the issue was also a need to re PID tune the extruder.

Problems Configuring WebCam

Hello everyone, I recently decided to reflash my Raspberry Pi 3+ B from scratch, opting for a fresh install of RatOS-v2.0.2. The installation process went quite smoothly until I encountered an issue with setting up the camera. I've configured the camera as a webcam/webrtc, and when I check with lsusb, it confirms that the camera is indeed detected. However, I'm facing challenges at this stage and could use some guidance. Here are the steps I've taken so far, specific to my Raspberry Pi setup:...
