octopus pro wont detect on setup and unable to compile data to flash board
I al trying to flash my board from either my raspberry pi 4 connection or compule the data to download it…
The software doesnt detect a board connected and when i click compile nothing happens… this is my first time building a printer so everything to do with this is a little foreign to me ov tried several different usb leads i had laying aroun to try and see if it was that including unplugging the tool head and trying that one still no communication and no compiling option iv also tried powering the psu and just the board that way and powering the pi by usb c still to no avail any help or advice i would really really appreciate
Thanks

Where are you pressing "compile"?
Bloody hell iv been trying this for hours and its justbworked when i filmed it 😂 still a bit worrying its not detected for
Future updates tho
For gods sake now iv done the restart its doin it again and wont let me check firmware 😂
Ignore that video where it worked holding my phone i clicked the wrong one
But seems its only this one board that doesnt work i can click on any other board and it wil compile
Its a octopus pro 1.1 btw
There are multiple different processor versions of the octopus pro 1.1. What version is this? If you don’t know take a close up picture of the processor on the board. Your full board picture is to compressed for me to tell.
My apologies i thought i had said its a h723 1.1
Maybe in the video. It’s late so could not watch them with the volume on. Try this if you have not already. Remove the usb power jumper off of the octopus and hook up the 24v power supply to the octopus and run the. 5volt power jumper from the octopus to power the pi. Also remove the usb c power supply you have running the pi. I powered my octopus pro that way and it worked fine to manually compile the firmware. Have you tried another browser as well?
I tried powering the board by 24v psu with jumper removed and the board i have not tried another browser tho tbf to me though it feels like its a rat os issue as i cant even click it yet i can click every single other board tht isnt even installed and compile firmware
It’s ratos 2.1 correct? Have you gone to the machine tab and updated everything?
When i go machine tab and refresh update manager everything just says invalid and is red
Hit the little update icon. I don’t have my printer on right now so I cannot get a screenshot.
