Non-critical MCU for beacon
Hello everybody, is it possible to set up the beacon probe as a non-critical mcu? I am having an issue with my beacon where it loses signal with klipper and kills my prints. I have tested multiple beacons probes and usb cables with no success which leads me to believe it is a power issue. I tried changing the powered USB hub as well as directly connecting the USB to the rpi but the issue persists. Being able to let the beacon not be critical after first layer would be really helpful. Thanks for any help you can offer 🙂
I unplugged the screen and the camera while running the beacon directly off the rpi power to see if there is any change, its currently printing but it normally stops a few hours in.

Octopus v1.1 not sending signal to heated bed *fresh RatOS instal*
Fresh install for ratos 2.0 everything works like normal but the heated bed is not activating. I powered the SSD with a PSU and it heats as it should and I tried a brand new octopus mcu with no luck. I think I've narrowed the issue down to the octopus with a multimeter, I know you have to ask it and yes the bed is wired correctly lol it worked without issue before fresh ratos instal. I believe it's just not sending a signal to the ssd from the bed out. I didn't change the pin-out for the heated bed in the printer.cfg, at least not that I am aware of. Is there anywhere else that I could have been changed something by mistake possibly?
Thanks for any help you can offer.

Beacon Probe revH Input shaper
I am in the process of setting up my beacon probe and I was wondering if somebody could direct me as to which ADXL commands I should comment in on the printer.cfg. I used the normal one that is supposed to be connected to the control board and was given and error but I got the same error with the other line in the 'toolboard' section. Is there something else I am forgetting? If I try to generate a shaper graph the commands throws an error because I don't have anything comment in for the accelerometer. I'll keep looking through the docs but if anybody could help me out that would be awesome.

Z homing Stepper Direction Issue
I am a little lost on this one, when I home x all three steppers move move the bed lower as it should and the same with homing y. When I home z (zleft) and (zright) move down but (zrear) the rear stepper moves the bed up. I have confirmed that everything is correct in the printer config I even reversed the z direction but all this does is throw the bed off level when homing x when the bed initially moves down for the homing process and checked the wiring and all z steppers are wired exactly the same. I am pretty stumped.
Thanks for any help you can offer!
