"it" being your raspi? What errors are you getting? What happens if you try to use configurator? Got a debug.zip?

the configurator\ doesn't let me pass the octopus page and is forcing "motor" associations with the extruders

What version of ratos? How is it stopping you from passing the octopus page? Extruders do have a motor so that last makes sense

Previously I thought they were associated with the Toolboard 0-7 (-1) were associated with Z,X,Y I appreciate you by the way.

Okay, lets back up. You said it "doesn't recognize anything but the octopus". Do you have a toolboard connected?

Do i flash the pi again and start from scratch? I'm trying to verify that all of the settings are correct. just trying to verify my competence since it's been awful

i mean, you could if you wanted but you shouldn't have to I would suggest looking at the printer.cfg then if you want to look at different configurator pages, you can change that "page" up in the address bar

I can look at it but I won't be able to tell if anything is wrong unless you've manually edited and done something truly bizarre But if you're having a specific problem and can describe it I'll try to investigate

I have had to edit stuff for the magbed and use contact, also safe z, because it ran the toolhead bed etc... I have since then re aligned and tightened everything, gone through the Commissioning process a few times >_<

Sounds like you've got some good practice in then 🙂 Have you been able to home the machine, and do a z-tilt?

yes it does those perfect 90% of the time, I was headed in a really good direction, making great forward progress. Got to zv,mzv,2hump... was getting super awesome first layers.... then it started changing the z offset and i had to recalibrate, and i tried to do some idex prints and the T1 kept slapping T0 and I have Done VAOC calibrations and reset it etc... now its a hot mess again and im trying to start from zero anyways, thanks for letting me vent. If you have any insight i would love to read it. I have other responsibilities to attend to. THANK YOU

I have no IDEX experience, would recommend opening a new thread with the specific issues encountered so they can be tackled one at a time. Best of luck!
