Octopus Max EZ detected but is unresponsive
ok so I've been trying to set this guy up for a few days without any luck. I am trying to flash the firmware from RatOS to the board for the initial setup and it isn't working for some reason. I've tried just about everything I can think of and still nothing. Tried flashing through SD, flashing through DFU, automatic flashing, tried using an 8Gb SD card instead of a 32, even tried getting a brand new board and literaly not plugging anything in but 24V (yes I have confirmed that it is 24.20V) and...
Solution:
Sorry for the later reply. I ended up using RatOS 2.1 ant that fixed most of the issues I had
Unable to parse option 'pid_kd' in section 'heater_bed'
Hello everyone,
I have just rebuilt my Voron V0.1 and switched to RatOS and Im getting the "Unable to parse..." error. In the Klippy log the error states "... could not convert string to float: '409\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n"
Im not sure how to fix this issue. Can anyone assist me with this, please?...
Step/Dir Drivers
Hi!
One of my TMC5160HV modules came broken out of the box, is there any way to make RatOS run using drivers that just take step/dir, in the meantime?
I cannot find a way to ask for this in the configurator....
Solution:
You could edit the config files directly, it is klipper after all. But then you probably would break RatOS for future configs.
temperature above max or below min shutdown
If RatOS shut down for a temperature error is that for sure a thermistor error or could I be because I haven't done my heater yet?
print finished būt not
So I come home to a finished print. Printer is not turned down, no error. Just print ended. It's halfway through.
I used the same geode as before, so it's not a pause or custom gcode thing.
Whaaat can this even be?...
Ratos / Raspberrypi
Hi guys
I have tried to install Ratos on a raspberrypi 4B but when I try to flash the image file from the Ratos github, balena ecter will not verify what it has flashed because it thinks there is an error in the image file? and I cannot bring up the web interface when I have logged on to the Ratos hotspot
What could I have done wrong?...
Failed to detect NetworkManager Service
My printer decided today to stop showing the web interface and when i checked on the kipper screen, it shows that it failed to detect network service.
So now i can't view mainsail web interface nor i can SSH into my printer.
I'm not sure how i managed to break the network as i properly shutdown klipper before turning the printer off and I always update Ratos first if available.
Is there other way to fix this issue without reinstalling Ratos?...
No option for VC4 in Installation macros
Fresh install of RatOS using latest release v2.0.2. Everything went smoothly, but unless I'm missing something, I don't see a way to automatically configure a V-Core 4.
UpdateManager says RatOS is up to date. Everything else is up to date. Not sure how to proceed. Should I do a full reimage?...
BTT SFS v2 Motion Doesn't work
I have setup the BTT smart filament sensor (v2) a few different ways, the RUNOUT sensor works, the MOTION sensor doesn't work no matter what I do. At this point I'm just trying to figure out how I can manually check that the sensor works, so I don't have to go through the entire printing process for each check.
The sensor has a 4-pin branched cable going from the sensor, one branch to PG15 and +5V (GND empty), and the motion cable going to PG11 and GND (+5V empty). I assume that the empty slots don't matter, it just needs one +5V between the two, and one GND, and then 1 signal for each. I have tried with and without

, and nothing seems to work. My config is based on this: https://wiki.circuitlaunch.com/circuitlaunch/BTT-V2-SFS-Smart-Filament-Sensor-on-Ratrig-6d153a7734e14531a74e5e2cc28e1c38
```...Solution:
I ended up ordering a new BTT SFS v2 and it works. I double checked the voltages on the new one and it was as I expected: as I move the filament, it switches between 0V and 4.4V every few mm. There must've been something wrong with the electronics of the old one. I have processed an Amazon return for it.
I tested both filament runout and filament jam capability of the new one, and it works fine with the following in my printer.cfg:

Raspberry PI & BTT 1.1 Installation
Hey guys I have had issues today.

Balena etcher fails on verification
Hi, all. Im almost done with my 3.1 400 build. Im trying to write RatOS 2.1 on a memory card. Ive tried multiple cards and adapters. But the same error comes after verification: "Something went wrong. If it is a compressed image, please check that the archive is not corrupted. The writer process ended unexpectedly." No matter the size of the memory cards, i can see in disk management that Balena etcher makes one drive with 256mb, and one with 7.73gb. Any suggestions? This is quite frustrating si...
Rapido UHG clog
I would like to clarify on the configuration regarding the hotends.
On RatOS 2.0 there was basically only one Rapido config for everything. The only thing I had to change was the thermistor type to PT1000.
Now the RatOS 2.1. Has 2 options, HF and UHF. The UHF by default has PT1000 thermistor. So everything checks out. I have the uhf version with pt1000 thermistor....
Printer keeps dropping off the network
Over the last couple of days my printer has started to repeatedly drop off the wireless home network. I am sure that this problem is restricted to the Raspberry Pi as I am not having any other network problems with the other 13 devices connected to my router. I am sure that the printer is not communicating. I cannot ping the printer and the router does not list it as a connected device. I can reboot the printer and it shows back up but within 15 minutes to a couple of hours later it has dropped. All this is without doing any printing in the meantime.
This is a recent change; but one that I am not sure is connected to any recent updates I have made to the configuration. I make it a point to update very regularly as the RatOS team is constantly making improvements and updates to the version 2.1. What information can I provide that can help resolve this issue? I am not a Linux expert but can log on directly with a connected monitor and keyboard to dig up whatever info I can provide.
Suggestions?...

Getting Incomplete Slicer Configuration detected
Incomplete Slicer Configuration detected
Your slicer gcode settings are not up to date.
Learn more about the RatOS 2.1 Slicer Configuration
...
Solution:
Because the "Incomplete Slicer Configuration" error is only triggered if
TOTAL_LAYER_COUNT
isn't passed to START_PRINT. Ie, your custom start gcode in your slicer profile isn't correct. The doc has everything you need.support fly Gemini boards
Will there be support for the fly Gemini boards on future os updates ????
Solution:
It's unlikely to be supported.
Getting started & maybe files missing?
I had Klipper running before but I wanted to try RatOS. I have used a new SD card & flashed the control board.
I am having some issues with just getting started. Apologies if these are stupid questions or if I have missed something really obvious.
I have included the Beacon .cfg in my printer.cfg but I cannot do a Z-home. When I go into the file RatOS/z-probe/beacon.cfg there is very little information there. THere is a lot more on the RatOS github.
What am I missing here?...
