Issue #1:
I found an error in the Klipper install instructions.
Following MakerTech's instructions
Code needs to change
Old: filename: ~/klipper_config/variables.cfg
New: filename: variables.cfg
Issue #2: I can not proceed past this point as Klipper is throwing an error.
Problem with Step 9 & 10 the “MCU” portion.
Your instructions are not clear at all.
What EXACTLY am I supposed to “paste” from the Terminal response into the printer.cfg file after “serial” ?
The entire response from Terminal, or just a portion of it?
I ran the ls /dev/serial/by-id/* command in Terminal (I use macOS)
This is what Terminal returned:
/dev/serial/by-id/usb-STMicroelectronics_MARLIN_STM32F407VGT6_CCM_CDC_in_FS_Mode_3561345F3439-if00
I’ve attempted these inputs, all fail.
[mcu]
serial: /dev/serial/by-id/usb-STMicroelectronics_MARLIN_STM32F407VGT6_CCM_CDC_in_FS_Mode_3561345F3439-if00Line 1 output of ls/dev command per instructions
serial: /dev/serial/by-id/usb-Klipper_MARLIN_STM32F407VGT6_CCM_CDC_in_FS_Mode_3561345F3439-if00Line 2 is as-built by MakerTech with output of ls/dev command
serial: /dev/serial/by-path/platform-fd500000.pcie-pci-0000:01:00.0-usb-0:1.2:1.0Line 3 is output of ls/dev per Klipper FAQ
If you are using multiple micro-controllers and they do not have unique ids (common on boards with a CH340 USB chip) then follow the directions above using the command ls /dev/serial/by-path/* instead.
Hi David,
Issue 1:
We'll attempt to re-create this and see if we can get the issue to pop up on our end, currently we're not having any problems with our default config.
Issue 2:
It should be pasted in after "serial:"
Have you completed this step:https://makertech-3d.dozuki.com/Guide/Stage+09:+Klipper+Firmware/117?lang=en#s1402
Have you got the blue USB cable connected from the raspberry pi to the control board when requesting the ID? (We've just updated the guide to make a point of this).
The code you get back should be in this format:
serial: /dev/serial/by-id/usb-Klipper_stm32f407xx_58002C000B50324239323920-if00If you're still having issues, we'll attempt to re-create the error and get back to you asap.
