I can’t get two btt tmc5160’s to work on my manta m8p
I used the templates provided by RatOS but I can not for the life of me figure out what it is that I have wrong in the config file. I’ve added pin aliases and different settings but nothing I do will get past my board not being able to communicate over the SPI bus. Any help would be greatly appreciated

Cm4. Sorry it took me a minute to come back
What error are you getting?

also your pin mapping is incorrect, everything on the board that talks SPI share the mosi/miso/sck pins and only differ in the CS pin
I just looked at the config files and your board's pinout - you don't have to lookup the pin, RatOS already has all the pins correctly mapped to aliases.

I’m getting a global scaler error
Ok I haven’t commented out the 2209 performance line. Let me try that now

I just updated my second screenshot, realized I left off the stuff for the Z-axis TMC2209 drivers - you have to add them too due to commenting out the 2209 include

Ok, I see. I was just going about it the wrong way. It’s a lot simpler than I thought

this is sort of explained here: https://os.ratrig.com/docs/configuration/advanced-stepper-configuration
Advanced Stepper Configuration | RatOS
RatOS V1.1 introduced modularized stepper and driver configuration, this can be used for more fine grained control of your steppers. In your printer.cfg you might have noticed a section like this:

however it's not as clear as it could be, Mikkel only has so much time to write up documentation so I understand why.

I know how it is. Ratrig is still in its infancy. I knew that when I bought it and I like troubleshooting
Sometimes I just need a little advice

I suppose we do….or we would’ve bought an X1P
