OK, maybe I'm getting closer to being able to update RatOS, etc.. once again. My setup uses 2 Ethernet cables: One goes from the PC to the Range Extender. The other goes PC to the pi. Going back to your very clear instructions 12/03/2024, 18:02 Pacific Time, Step # 4. Click Sharing. Here's the problem: "Ethernet" > Properties has a "Sharing" Tab. "Ethernet 2" > Properties does NOT have a "Sharing" Tab. Any suggestions? Thank you very much, Sir!

I used the configurator because simply clicking an UPDATE button, no longer worked as it did in the past. Now I realize that was a mistake on my part. - "It" was the file named, "printer.cfg" that caused one of the three Z-motors to go in the wrong direction. Once I understood this, I noted that "printer.cfg" had a "Last Modified" date in October. That confused me, because "printer.cfg" had clearly changed, because of my (mistakenly) using the configurator. Anyway, the printer is working OK, and I will work on restoring the connection between the printer and the Internet, so I don't have to bother you. I know you must have more fun, important, and interesting projects to work on, rather than dealing with a software dummy like me! Thank you, though!

PROGRESS! Printer seems to be functioning OK again: Homing OK, Auto-level OK, Heaters OK, Extruder OK, Mesh Calibration OK. RatOS can connect to GitHub. The command: “git fetch —prune —progress” returns the following: “fatal: unable to access “https://github.com/Rat-OS/RatOS-configuration.git/“: Could not resolve host: github.com”.

The printer is 500mm cube, weighs a ton and won’t make it through a standard door. The PC hasn’t moved a fraction of an inch; t’s well protected. The pi is screwed very securely to the frame of the printer. Communication between the PC and the pi is an Ethernet cable fastened to the ceiling between the two. The Z-axis crash occurred because one of the 3 Z motor direction got reversed when printer.cfg got over-written. What really threw me off was the fact that the “Last Modified” date shown by RatOS was in October. The printer was working fine until the attempted update. Printer.cfg has been replaced by a backup, and homes correctly again. Would an SSD card with all the updates going into the pi be a reasonable fix for all the INVALID files? RatOS is/was V2.1.0-RC2-106. Thanks!

I will NEVER attempt another “update” to RatOS! Yesterday, I printed 2 threaded parts that screwed together perfectly. Today, after the “update”, Z axis crashed violently while homing. Which software package shall I restore? On the RatOS “Machine” page, not a single file nor folder shows a modified date beyond October. On the RatOS software “update” section, every single file has an orange flag that says, “INVALID”.

I'm trying to update RatOS and all the other stuff. I've been successful at it several times since I built this RatRig V-Core 3 500 about 2 years ago. My PC is connected to Space-X's Starlink via a Starlink router, a tp-link (brand) Range Extender and an Ethernet cable.

Hmmm... the pi is ten feet from a Range Extender. Clear line-of-sight. No obstructions. The Range Extender is connected to my Windows PC using an Ethernet cable. The PC is also connect to the pi using a second Ethernet cable. PC can talk to Klipper, Mainsail, Moonraker, etc., without any problems.

OK. That worked. Now I'm getting a green/white/blue prompt that says, "pi@RatOS:~ $. Upon entering , "cd ~/printer_data/config/RatOS, it comes back with this: "-bash: cd: /printer_data/config/RatOS: No such file or directory. Thanks for your amazing patience with me.

BTW, I had a good laugh at your word: "unfuck". There are a couple of women who I wish could have been "unfucked" so they would not have gotten pregnant! Well, I got as far as ssh. [email protected] is asking for a password. To my knowledge, I have never set up a password. But, even if I did, I cannot enter anything after the word, "password:". The command prompt cursor is blinking, but nothing I type shows up, and the cursor does not move. Thanks.

OK, Same error message after following instructions on Discord: "Error updating RatOS Git Command 'Fetch origin - prune - progress' failed." I have navigated to the RatOS Configurator > Setup Wizard > V-Core 3 Setup > Configure WiFi Setup. Next, I entered the available WiFi router (Starlink) and it's password. So, apparently, the Raspberry Pi should be able to connect to the Internet thru my Windows 10 PC via Ethernet cable, or it can connect to the Internet via my Starlink WiFi router. Please, what am I doing wrong? Thank you for your help.

Help With 4028 Part Fan Code, Please?
Thank you! OK, I added those 3 lines, but the fan still doesn't run. Parts are coming off the machine looking pretty good, so maybe I should just leave it alone.👍🏻

Thank you for your reply. Yes, of course I should have attached the file. I forgot. I'll blame my old age. Zipped printer.cfg attached.

Mesh heightmap after three hours of adjusting.
Yeah, I've got the same problem, watched the same video, & spent an entire day trying to straighten it out. No luck. Today, I saw a video of a guy using a different approach: instead of screwing around with the frame, he used shims under his flex plate. Are you using a flex plate?

Baffled Beginner Has Distorted First Print
Just a word of thanks to blacksmithforlife us for your help. My prints are now coming off the bed with amazingly good quality! The 7 x 7 bed mesh is warped by a whopping 2.5mm., but after spending an entire day jacking the frame into what I hoped would be square, and improving it by only 1mm., maybe 2mm on a 500 x 500 bed isn't so bad after all.
