I installed as prescribed. RatOS, then ratos-configurator, then UPDATE ALL COMPONENTS. Everything is up to date. I also updated my printer.cfg. I'm getting this error: Include file '/home/pi/printer_data/config/RatOS.cfg' does not exist

I reimagined the sd card a little bit ago and am currently installing things in the prescribed order.

Right, that is how landmines work 😉 . Agreed. Unfortunately RTFM is the answer. Anything is possible, but I assume it would take changes beyond the scope of what RatRig has direct control over. I am not familiar with the whole stack, so I can't comment on how, but it is possible. It sounds like mainsail would need to support installOrder.

Seems like an unfortunate land mine waiting for people to step on it. I likely read this months ago and likely did it in the correct order and then it exited my memory. I'm surprised UPDATE ALL COMPONENTS doesn't do all this by default, that would be the ideal user experience. Seems like if UPDATE ALL COMPONENTS had some way to take installOrder or something of that sort it would save a lot of users a lot of time and frustration.

Do I need to reimage now that RatOS is in an invalid state? I guess I didn't realize there was a specific order.

I got RatOS loaded, connected to Wifi, I added my printer.cfg back, and now I'm updating all components again.

Will I need to redo any of the beacon calibration process or is that all stored in my printer.cfg?

Issue with dimensional accuracy on the z axis

Maybe? Since the print pictured, I did adjust my slicer to account for that; but I haven't tested. Looks like it comes out to just over 2%. I guess I'm not sure what is normal. Was there a range documented somewhere?

Issue with dimensional accuracy on the z axis

I'm using PrusaSlicer. I'll see if I can do what you described when I'm in front of my computer next. Thanks for the help.

Issue with dimensional accuracy on the z axis

I drilled end holes out. 8 bolts is excessive, 4 will work, so I just made things look visually correct. The holes are 50 mm apart, with one lined up, a second one lines up enough to put a bolt through, but the other two end up way off.

RatOS-v2.1.0-RC2 How do I set configuration that is not included in the "Configurator"?

Sounds good. On the first few prints I made sure my nozzle tip was clean and the process seemed to work well. On the last print I didn't pay attention and it felt like I got too much squish, but the print is still running. However, if there was filament in the way, wouldn't it have too little squish? I also haven't done the expansion compensation for the nozzle and bed temp I'm running, which is 120C on the bed and 270C or 310C on the nozzle, so I'll do that next. I'm pretty novice, so take all my thoughts/opinions/questions with a grain of salt. I do appreciate the help though! You guys are doing great work.

RatOS-v2.1.0-RC2 How do I set configuration that is not included in the "Configurator"?

After starting another print, I'm still slightly confused. Maybe I'm too abstracted away from the startup sequence. It seems like it does a nozzle contact before the mini-blob procedure? I was thinking it would be the other way around?

RatOS-v2.1.0-RC2 How do I set configuration that is not included in the "Configurator"?

I guess I'm seeing an explanation that there is a wipe that occurs at some point that should clean the tip before the step that needs it removed (calibration?). Seems like that should be in the documentation, I have a feeling I'm not the only person that will be worried about it and if it is already handled, some clear documentation would ease the nerves.

RatOS-v2.1.0-RC2 How do I set configuration that is not included in the "Configurator"?

With Beacon Contact needing to have a clean nozzle to work correctly, is it going to become common to have some way or automating cleaning the nozzle on RatRigs? I've seen stationary wire brush and servo + wire brush solutioin on other machines, I assume something like this is needed?
