RatOS 2 Setup Wizard

Can't seem to get past this second step with flashing the MCU, even though I already have done it & updated everything "Check Board Status" at the bottom doesn't seem to do anything, and the "Next" button is greyed out. Also, even the "Shutdown RatOS" button does nothing. I manually shut down from within Mainsail and rebooted everything... still no availability from those buttons. I hard-refreshed the configurator page and it's still back to not identifying the board & buttons doing nothing. Pi 4, Octopus 1.1 - nothing else hooked up (just powered for setup purposes)

and you flashed the octopus?

Yup, you can see the Klipper version reported in that second image... I am assuming this means it knows the Octopus is present and hooked up

I think that is the pi, not the MCU (octopus)

Yeah, used the compile firmware button and then flashed that with BalenaEtcher

I had assumed the Host was the Pi, the MCU above was the Octopus (although I could be assuming wrong)

Ohh, yeah now I see what you mean

I don't have anything hooked up to it, though, but I also haven't picked a base config (from the macro copy-template thing in Mainsail)

I believe that is fine as long as you have USB A attached to PI and USB C attached to octopus for communication and you have power to each of those

Ok, calling this one solved... apparently had some type of issue with the flashing onto the Octopus and after re-doing everything, it seems to have all worked out properly. No idea how to add a 'Solved' tag to this post
