Klipper

[Aloafromhell]

Hi guys. Who managed to configure Klipper with the gtr. I just got stuck had a config ready. However, no connection is made.

I did. Which serial port are you trying to use? I connected my Raspberry Pi to the PI header pins on the GTR and using that serial port.

My mcu settings look like this:

[mcu]
baud: 250000
restart_method: command
serial: dev/serial0

@mak0t0san Did you have to flash your config via the SD Card? if not how did you get your config to flash to the board? I cannot get serial or USB to actually take configurations. The Pi does not like this board and refuses to flash anything. I am not finding a set of boot pins to get a new bootloader uploaded. Any help would be appreciated.

@sentein Yes, I flashed via SD card. I created the firmware.bin file from running the Klipper config on the Raspberry Pi. I then used WinSCP on a computer to grab the file from the Raspberry Pi and copy it to a micro SD card, which I then inserted into the GTR board and flashed Klipper.

@mak0t0san I am betting you are using Octoprint. I am attempting to use DWC2. If you happen to use DWC2 can you give me any hints as to how you got the Duet Web Control to actually communicate with the board?

[mak0t0san]

@sentein Yes, used Octoprint and Repetier server and both worked fine, although the plugin for Octoprint made it easier to work with Klipper. I haven't tried the version of DWC for Klipper, although I do use DWC for my Duet boards. I haven't used DWC on a non-Duet board.

I’m also having trouble. I’m not getting anything from serial when using gnd rx and tx. Do I need to set parameters in make menuconfig. I disabled usb and went with serial uart1 with gpio pins enabled. Is this wrong? How can I fix it. ?
