Cannot Connect Octopus Pro to Pi
Hi guys, I'm very new to this community and admittedly a little over my head when it comes to this kind of custom 3D printer and I bought it looking to expand my experience and knowledge. I have been stuck trying to connect the Octopus pro to my Raspberry Pi. I keep getting the error mcu 'mcu' : unable to connect. I have tried searching online and through this discord but what works for others doesn't seem to be working for me. I could really use any help I can get. Thanks in advance!

Yes, although I do not know how to SSH into my raspberry pi but I have gone through all the other points
What operating system is the computer you are using to connect to the mainsail interface (ratos.local)?
fair-rose•2y ago
Windows 11
ok, so open up powershell and type in
ssh pi@<IP ADDRESS>
where <IP ADDRESS> is the ip address of your raspberry piIt should look something like this

sorry if this is a dumb question but how do I get the ip address from the Pi?
nope, not a dumb question. Since you have the web UI working you can grab it form the machine tab

default password is
raspberry
unless you have changed it
when typing the password it will not show anything. When you are done, just hit enterfair-rose•2y ago
