CB1+M4P RatOS, how to install?

Ive never installed anything on a board before. Literally just learning. I am trying to figure out why I cant get RatOS onto my boards. I am following the raspberry pi instructions but have not been able to get it to work for the CB1. (cant find instructions for the cb1).

Probably a simple fix? I guess.

If anyone can help me understand whats happing here that would be great. So, when I home my printer homes its like 1. Head moves to left on x axis and hit the stops. and moves to 200. 2. The head moves along the Y axis and then hits the Y endstop. 3. After, then moves to the middle and dose a probe check( i have a Euclid) 4. Then moves to the corrner and picks it up....

MCU instant shutdown

I have attached my Kipper log and also a screenshot. At first I thought this was just a thermostat but after replacing all of them and their wires it has to be something else.

mcu: Unable to connect

Thanks to blacksmithforlife us’ FAQ’s I’ve definitely made some progress. Windows 10 laptop is now talking to Raspberry Pi 3 B+ flashed with RatOS 2.0.0, and Mainsail is talking to Moonraker. All software components have been updated to the latest versions, so it appears something is connected to the Internet via WiFi. Making progress! Moonraker is not talking to Klipper however. On the laptop’s RatOS DASHBOARD, it says, “Printer is not ready. The klippy host software is attempting to connect.” Then, a few seconds later, “Klipper reports: ERROR” and “mcu ‘mcu’: Unable to connect.” Octopus Pro has four tiny LED’s: POWER (steady red), MOTOR POWER (steady green), another steady red not labelled, and a very rapidly (~3fps?) flashing red STATUS light. As advised somewhere “official”, there are no cables plugged into the Octopus except power and the USB-C >< USB-A cable (Pi end). This printer is a standard Rat-Rig V-Core 3 500 kit. It’s my first 3D printer, but my 2nd major “mechatronic” project in my retirement. The 1st was a 3-axis CNC milling machine, which is working OK except for a noisy spindle motor bearing....

printhead gone wrong

Hello, Out of the blue any movement on my print head has gone bad. If I try to home x, it moves both x and y. Same thing if I home y, it moves both x and y. And makes horrible sound...

Overriding Nozzle Prime position

didn't want to hijack the thread.... '(nozzzzle) is there an override in RO v2 so I could move my prime blob back over to the left front? and i though PAM would move that prime to near where the print was going.... Are they related? (settings to move these)

EBB36 "MCU 'toolboard' shutdown: Thermocouple reader fault"

I just installed my EBB36 and always get the error "MCU 'toolboard' shutdown: Thermocouple reader fault". I therefore think something in my printer.cfg regarding the MAX31865 is wrong. However I have the same prnter.cfg like @micha.mue suggsted in ratosdevelopement. This is in my user overrides in printer.cfg: [extruder] heater_pin: toolboard: e_heater_pin...

Klipper Error after 2.0 update using old cfg from 1.1

Hello. I am in the process of putting a new octopus 1.1 board in my machine and though I might as well do the RatOS update at the same time. I fallowed the initial configuration process which is nice and easy now but when I but into RatOS I am now getting this error. See attached screen shot. I know there must be something wrong with my old config file. Includes path needs to be updated or something. Trouble is I have not been able to find it in the config file....

MCU toolboard shutdown

hello everybody. I have a v-core 500 3.1. I'm having a problem that has already made me spend a huge amount of plastic and I can't find the solution. the problem concerns the MCU. It says it has lost connection. I initially changed the USB C cable because it was making bad contact, but it lasted for 3 more prints until the error started again. the machine stops working practically in the same place or with the same approximate printing time any idea what it could be?

Z Tilt always failing: Probed points range is increasing

Hi. I've just finished with the assembly of a V-Core 3.1 300 (standard kit, everything bought from RatRig store) and I haven't been able to get the Z Tilt working consistently. A couple of times it worked and seemed to be fine, but upon starting a print and checking again Z tilt it started failing. I have the standard V Core 3.1 printer cfg in Klipper, with minor adjustments to the Super Pinda probe z offset. I'm a bit lost on this. What should I start checking for this? ...

I can’t get two btt tmc5160’s to work on my manta m8p

I used the templates provided by RatOS but I can not for the life of me figure out what it is that I have wrong in the config file. I’ve added pin aliases and different settings but nothing I do will get past my board not being able to communicate over the SPI bus. Any help would be greatly appreciated

Overriding Nozzzle Prime Start in RatOS macro won't work

Hi, I have a vcore3.1-500 and I use sensorless homing. All is fine except I need the the prime blob to be placed at 0 / 0 - instead it will happen at -7 / -2 Y=-2 is no problem. X=-7 will bump the head against the pysical end the X axis. So set x endstop to -7 with `[stepper_x] dir_pin: x_dir_pin # Add ! in front of pin name to reverse X stepper direction...

Component ID

Wondering if anybody could help me identify this component on a BTT Octopus Pro. Accidentally shorted a part of the board with a loose wire mid print and this guy lit up and let out the magic smoke. Have included view of board and close up of location. Component is circled in red. Thanks!

Heater extruder not heating at expected rate

My printer stopped about 8 hours into a print with this error and my Rapido UHF hotend doesn't appear to heat up any more. I checked the thermistor with a heat gun and it appears work correctly. I measured 24v going into the heat block when it tries to heat up. I expect I over-tightened the nozzle last time I fitted it; would the logical step be to order a new heater block kit? Thanks 🙏

RatOS v2.0.0... now unable to join network "RatOS"

Please help? Downloaded 2023-03-03-RatOS-v2.0.0-raspberry-rpi64.img.xz from GitHub. Flashed to micro SD card using balenaEtcher, as I did before with V1.2.4. No problems. 4 different computers (2 Windows 10, 2 iOS) all "see" RatOS, but all 4 say, "Unable to join network "RatOS". Please, what am I doing wrong?...
