RatOS installation: Flashing Octopus V1.1 via DFU - DFU not detected
Octopus v1.1 - RatOS-2.1.0-RC2. Initial setup, connecting RPi to Octopus, power supply is connected but not powered.
My board doesn't reflect the image in the setup Wizard, but I believe I've got the DFU jumper set correctly (img 1 & 2).
Moonraker lights up green, while Klipper turns red in the Wizard.
When I connect a monitor to the Pi I see an error message "unknown config object 'bed_mesh'" (img 3).
Can I continue with the build guide pt 12 electronics as my board is detected in the configurator or is there something wrong ?...
Solution:
That's the dfu jumper. The one you've highlighted is the V_USB jumper that connects USB 5V to the onboard 5V rail (you very much want to remove that..).
Issues with fine tuning Beacon contact
Ive been fighting with my printer for a while now. When I installed the beacon and did the z offset calibration https://github.com/HelgeKeck/RatOS/blob/documentation_v2.1/site/docs/configuration/beacon_contact.md I had a perfect first layer.
But Now im having issues with the first layer. I have cleaned the bed and redone the calibration a couple of times. But to no avail. Also tried the fine tuning z offset in the webui during prints. But doesnt matter which way i go up or down it still keeps issues....

RatOS - No network connection available
Verified working RPi 4 B 4gb. Verified working SD cards, SD readers. Have tried downloading the image multiple times, even using different browsers. Using Balena as requested by RatOS docs, produces an error during the verification process every time, regardless of download, SD card, SD reader, etc. Using Pi Imager does not produce errors.
Again, regardless of SD card, SD reader, or download, once I boot up the PI, the OS will not allow it to connect via the wired connection. I can connect to the hotspot via my phone and computer AND laptop, how ever, i can NOT connect to http://ratos.local/configure or http://192.168.50.1/configure on all three devices I attempted. Using the same SD cards, I can load the current version of Raspberry Pi OS 32-bit, and it connects to my network via the LAN card just fine....
Solution:
yeah, you will NEVER be able to connect on your LAN to http://192.168.50.1/configure , that is the hotspot sub-network
webcam stream not found
I get the error as in title when I go to VAOC tab in mainsail. I can see the stream from the camera when I add it to mainsail so the camera itself is working. I added the configuration to crowsnest.conf as per idex commisioning guide. In chrome console I see the following errors:
Ebb42 not connecting tried following the step but doesn't connected

How to set the correct camera to VAOC?
Iām adding a nozzle camera to V-Core 4.
Connecting it and rebooting I get from crowsnest.log:
[11/16/24 09:29:01] crowsnest: /dev/v4l/by-id/usb-3DO_3DO_NOZZLE_CAMERA_V2_3DO-video-index0 -> /dev/video0
and [11/16/24 09:29:01] crowsnest: /dev/v4l/by-id/usb-3DO_Rat_Rig_VAOC_Camera_3DO-video-index0 -> /dev/video2
So in my crowsnest.cfg the first camera is the nozzle camera and will be used for VAOC procedure....Solution:
You should not be using /dev/video0 for VAOC, you should be using /dev/RatOS/rr-vaoc-camera that way it'll keep working regardless of other devices.
There's nothing "unsafe" about changing the paths though š
VAOC will work as long as it's configured for port 8080, with camera-streamer....
Wrong pin assignment for T1 part cooling fan
I have a Octopus MAX EZ board and am running my part cooling fans on two of the 4 pin fan ports on the board. After using the configurator to assign the fans to the board, I got an error that PA1 (T0 fan PWM pin) was used more than once. After looking at the ratos.cfg I found that the T0 pin assignments were being used for T1, as well. I've added a screenshot of the ratos.cfg.
The aliases higher in the ratos.cfg have the pins assigned correctly, but in the [fan_generic part_fan_t1] they are defined wrong. I manually assigned the correct pins in my printer.cfg, but I wanted to let the dev team know that this is happening....

New Y endstop position
Hi, I'm running through the new IDEX commissioning guide, I've completed the new X & DC endstop positions but when doing the new Y endstop position into the calculator it's complaining that the inserted values are invalid.
Please see the attached photos.
Current Y endstop -14.35, toolhead Y position above bed edge -14.00
Any guidance would be appreciated....
Issue: pin heater_bed_heating_pin is an alias for PB2
Typically I can solved this on my own this one is giving so much trouble. I installed 2.1 RC1 and i cannot resolve it.
I moved some of my older config parts over and I used a unified sensorless homing file as i did in 2.0.
Not sure where to go from here...
Trouble setting up webcam
I am struggling to get the webcam stream working. I tried following this https://crowsnest.mainsail.xyz/configuration/cam-section. I have a logitech c920e. My camera and crowsnest configuration are attached. I also recently updated my firmware and that didnt help either. No stream is showing in any mode. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Solution:
So I ssh'd into the raspberry pi and ran cd ~/crowsnest and sudo make install. Then after I rebooted, the update manager showed an update for crowsnest. I let it update and rebooted again. (had v4.0.2-0 -> v4.1.9-1). Then I had to set everything in the config file for crowsnest again. Now it works!
