Cant get RatOS working on a Voron2.4 with Euclid Probe to Set Z height
Its only about 12 lines of code spread about 4 files, so it shouldn't take too long to merge. Only tested on the Voron and not my Vcore3 so far.

Cant get RatOS working on a Voron2.4 with Euclid Probe to Set Z height
I think I got everything working. I can now home_z, do a quad gantry level, do a standard and adaptive mesh, and print a piece with all the all of them working together as expected. I reworked the macros by adding 2 ratos variables and accounting for these in standard code . I attached the code as separate files so you can do a difference report. Someone might take a look to see if they are mergeable in the future.
It is surprisingly satisfying to see standard RatOS running on a Voron24

limit speed
RatOS does not mess with speeds for z_tilt and mesh as far as I know. It would use the speeds defined in Klipper and adjusted as you have done. The defaults are must slower than you have configured. I don't know of a separate setting for acceleration.
[z_tilt]
#speed: 50
The speed (in mm/s) of non-probing moves during the calibration.
The default is 50.
[bed_mesh]
#speed: 50
The speed (in mm/s) of non-probing moves during the calibration.
The default is 50.
If the problem is between movements getting ready for z_tilt and mesh, RaOS does use some internal speeds for its own macros, defined as such:
[gcode_macro RatOS]
variable_macro_travel_speed: 150 # int = xy macro travel move speed
variable_macro_travel_accel: 2000 # int = xy macro travel move acceleration In many cases it is using 60% of the defined speed. You can try a quick test adding a section in printer.cfg with lower values to see what happens.

Slowly getting there....
I'm learning a lot more about all the work that has gone into RatOS. IDEX has created a LOT! of work for you guys. The BEACON probe has not been easy too... I will enter a bug issue on the repo for the Voron2.4 config. Thanks for all your help!

Cant get RatOS working on a Voron2.4 with Euclid Probe to Set Z height
I was able to modify the macros RATOS, HOME_Z, DEPLOY_PROBE, and STOW_PROBE to separate the interaction between the z endstop and euclid probe. Setting the Z height and Quad gantry leveling now work; at least well enough for me to get a test cube printed.
My next challenge seems to be the PRINT_START macro that is causing some issues that I haven't had time to figure out; my brain hurts too much. That has got to be the LONGEST macro I have ever seen. Obviously the result of all the goodies that have been added to the RatRig over the years.
For now, I turned off bed meshing and adaptive mesh to simplify things but something is still happening with START_PRINT expecting the probe to be deployed rather than stowed in the beginning and some batch mode parameter that I need to figure out.
Before I dive into this much further, are there any other suggestions as to what to look at? The ones you gave me were extremely helpful. ps, i also discovered that the Z axis was moving at 1/5th the expected distance. I needed to add setting to the Z steppers motors to account for this as the RatOS configurator did not take into account the gear ratio of 80:16. I'll probably add this as a separate issue.

BTT SFS v2 Motion Doesn't work
There are two status words on the dashboard. One that say "detected" when everything is normal; and then "empty" when there is a problem. I can trigger this by extruding filament while I hold the filament and do no allow it to get pulled by the extruder. The console will say "Filament clog" because of my M118 command. While watching the BTT sensor the blue light will also stop flashing when it should be pulsing.

Thanks for the confirmations. In the meantime, I went ahead and refreshed RatOS from scratch. Saw that there was a new RC. Just in the process of getting localization back to normal. So far, so good.

Octopus Pro V1.1
I recently has similar problems with an Octopus V1.1. Nothing I did could get RatOS to flash it successfully. I could not do it natively in Linux either. I had to reload the bootloader. Not hard to do but you do have to download some software and a bootloader file to do it. Look up the issue https://discord.com/channels/582187371529764864/1258624556902649878 for some details on this.

Underwhelming first layer after calibration
The first set of pictures it looked like the nozzle was too close to the bed. The second set looked like it was too far away. I see that you are using a textured bed. For PLA I usually use a smooth bed. Its a little easier to figure out bed to nozzle distance problems. If you dont have a smooth bed, of course that option is not available. Have you tried any bed adhesive like stick glue. Also make sure your first layer is printed slow. 40-50 mm/sec works for me. Also I almost always use .3 mm layer height on the first layer on a textured bed; even if later I am going to use .1 or .2mm layer height. Textured beds do not like a thin layer to begin with. I also assume that the cooling fan is off for the first layer or two?

Moving toolhead power my fan
This is normal. A stepper motor is a generator when manual driven. Suggested not to move things too fast but seeing some power generated is normal

Realtime Analysis not working with BTT lis2dw card
Did not know I had to choose. I now see config for just Host and Control Board. For some reason my adxl345 connect to the control board decide to stop working and I don't know why. It took the lis2dw off my Voron and put it on my Ratrig and normal macros worked fine. I am assuming then that the LDO toolboard that I am hoping to install soon will also not work with the Realtime analysis tool.

Unable to flash controller
Thanks guys! now to get it back to "exactly" how it was configured. I had some files save but it did not reflect the changes made since recently after installing a BBT Filament sensor 2.0. Hopefully not too hard to recreate, especially since I only installed it a couple of weeks ago. I did find out that most people would recommend a BTT Octopus Pro H723 as a replacement controller.

Unable to flash controller
Well.... I reflashed the bootloader following the instructions in the link above. Pretty simple procedure actually. I then reran the RatOS configurator and reflashed Klipper in DFU mode. It now works! Yahoo!!! It has survived several reboots and power cycles. Wish I knew what took out the SD card and the Controller firmware but at least I now have a working printer. Thanks All.
