Beacon + RatOS 2.1 / VC3.1 400mm - "Unknown config object 'beacon'"
Hi everyone,
I have just upgraded my VCore 3.1 from RatOS 2.0 to 2.1, and also plugged in my new Beacon Rev H, of course configuring it in the RatOS 2.1 setup.
When I get to the Mainsail page, I get the error message, "Unknown config object 'beacon'".
I can't find this error posted here, the Facebook page or online anywhere. What should I do?
Thanks ๐

Also, I believe it is being detected (attached).
There is no blinking LED on the Beacon (I think there should be? ๐คท)

Did you do "hard recovery" on klipper in the update manager for some reason?
should fix it in that case.
Hmm still getting the same issue ๐ . I was veeeery careful installing it, so I don't see how I could have damaged it.

send me the debug-zip
you can download it from the configurator in the sidebar
also please show me the output from running
sudo ~/printer_data/config/RatOS/scripts/ratos-update.sh
Sure, give me a few mins
The error log is a text file, I didn't know how else to export it sorry
โ Symlink for "beacon.py" already exists. Skipping.So
[beacon]
is very much a known config object.
something is weird
You don't have the beacon configured, there's no [beacon]
anywhere in your config.
You have selected "SuperPinda"
"probe":"superpinda",
But you have your accelerometers set to beacon, that's probably why it's not working ๐Thanks, I must have messed up in the configurator stage. Your help is much appreciated my friend!
