Just want to point to the Raspberry Pi Imager, in the advanced options (crtl+shift+x), you can set directly wifi, host name, ssh and other stuff directly before flashing the sd card, saves so much time!
Thanks you for this video! I would advise a word of caution for anybody watching this planning to follow along. Do NOT skip the configuration checklist they suggest you do in this video. Do it to completion. I did some of it but skipped the rest because I assumed I would be fine with the defaults in the config file provided. Turns out the config file has the stepper motor reversed, which took me a while to figure out what was happening. See the "dir_pin" entry in the config file. Do not skip checking this or anything else!!
OK We did it, Andy and I both updated our 10S Pro. I mostly watched while Andy did the wizard stuff. I asked about Klipper and said when TT does it he might consider it. We both did the same config so he went first, then he helped me and we just finished. Wow it has transformed my 5 year old 10S Pro. Thank You for sharing all that do it helps us all so much. I will follow your race car as that was a dream i had back 67, but just never worked out that way. Take care and yes Klipper is everything you said it was. Now to calibration and dial it in, Oh Boy. Thanks, Dennis we keep OctoPrint in our system and use S3D slicer, its all working quite nice.
I am in the process of building my Voron 2.4 and videos like this are a goldmine when it comes to easy to understand instructions installing Klipper and the like. Thank you. you are a legend!!!
Actually, after ZTest you don't need to manually enter Z offset into config file. Just type ACCEPT command and then - save_config. Z_offset parameter will be in the bottom section of the config file (where the pid data are).
Cheers! I'm about to start the journey with my CR10 Max. I've upgraded to linear rails on the X and Y and a Micro-Swiss hotend. I'm hoping Klipper will give me a real speed boost! Thanks for the config file.
Thanks Michael. I recently added a SKR E3 Turbo to my Ender 6 and needed to cobble together a printer.cfg from multiple sources like you did. Once I had it moving properly, I then worked on the BLTouch config and the DDX swap. One step at a time and everything works great. Thanks so much!
Just timed my geeetech a10 update to octoclipper for today. The BLtouch guide was really helpful. So far flashing ok, endstop test ok, directions fixed, pid tuning done, bltouch test ok with safe homing. I just hope it will worth it. To be continue ... tomorrow.
This is certainly something I will be checking out, I have been curious about Klipper for my CR10s Pro V2 and I suspect the installation procvess will be quite close to this. As always, another good video subject choice.
@@EnochPedersen No, I never found the time when I could afford to have the downtime and relearning. I think at this point that I might just wait until I can afford one of the new printers that can run 5 times faster straight out of the box, with a g-force sensor built in to eliminate ringing and can use multiple filaments. I've been considering making a 'The 100' 3D printer because it is capable of insane speeds for hardly any costs. Anyway, your comment has reminded me of this, so I'll bookmark it and rewatch the video, see how easy it is.
@UA-camHandlesSuckBalls thanks for the update! I want to get a bambu x1 carbon or a k1 Max, but I figured in the meantime, I would upgrade the one I have to be a little bit better while I save up. It seems complex to me so far, but I'm pretty new at this. I got the BTT pad 7, and I'm trying to figure out exactly how it get it set up with klipper. I haven't found any step by step guides for my exact setup yet, so I'm gathering info based on a few different how-to videos
This gave me the want to try klipper on my CR-10s with the upgraded 2.2 board. Had to use the Ender 5 pro configuration with minor changes. All the pins were correct for the printer. Just needed to change the maximum bed size and extruder rotation. Tomorrow, I'll work on all the calibrations. Thank you for the example.
Well has to be said thanks heaps for showing me this firmware, brought my old printer back from the dead, trying to get Marlin to flash to my re-arm board and it wouldn't have a bar of it, took a few days getting things sorted with klipper and a half dead ramps board I discovered but first print now and it's working like a champ
Thanks for doing this. Sort of annoying applying this to a SKR mini e3 v2.0 on an Ender 3, but I do understand you can't make every possible combination of instructional video!
I wanna klipperize my bltouch installed CR10V3 but I'm scared to mess it up. Your video gave me an idea of how the process goes. I hope I can find the courage to try it some time soon.
WOW, my 3D world just changed forever! Excellent (but a little fast - thank goodness for pause) video. To hedge my bets I will update my older Geetech A10 first. If all is well then the A20 will get the "treatment" too. I have BL-touch probes that I was hesitant to add to the standard printers but, thansk to your guidance, I will now be adding them too.
Thanks for your video ! It helped me a lot to install the Fluidd-Klipper combo on my Creality CR-20 (basic one, not "Pro"). I used to have Octopi and Octoprint, I didn't know this way to use my printer.
Well, I'm happy. All went nice. One error in Putty. Common one so a solution was easily found. I'm using Sherpa extruder so it was just a minor deviation from the uploaded config file. THANK YOU!!! Next is making this happen for my Ender 5 as I see start config files available and in Fluid there is an option to add a printer. I assume one Pi can run more printers. Fluid is very nice and actually it's like Duet web. Copy or not, who cares, it's nice. :)
You seem to be the most knowledgable guy out there when it comes to 3d printers. I have a CR10 Smart and I've configured Fluidd, a printer config file, and I tried to make the bin file. I can't seem to find anything on how to flash the bin file, and when I try to do it in a way similar to marlin, I have no idea if it worked or not. Fluidd does not seem to recognize the printer and I am uncertain as to what I am doing wrong. Any and all help would be greatly appreciated.
@@j.g545 I used it once. When I tried it. :) I usually print functional parts I design myself. One part at a time. When something fails then all fails. I cannot exclude anything from it.
Oh wow, I had no idea that Klipper has fixed the standalone TMC2208 bug! Ever since I set up linear advance on my main printer (a coreXY with TMC2209s in UART mode) I have been spoiled by it, and really wanted to use LA on my other printer (a Voxelab Aquila) but I was held back because I really didn't feel like messing with the mainboard (I don't have bltouch or a filament sensor or anything else on it so I don't really feel I need a motherboard upgrade) but the problem with the Aquila mainboard is that it has soldered on TMC2208s in standalone mode. Guess I've got a new weekend project now :)
No idea how many people might need to see this, but if you get a 'i2c_config' error you need to run make clean then run make again. wasn't a hard google search but was frustrating and so it took longer than it should have
If you get an error when using command: “make” then you need to run command “ make clean” between “make config” and “make”. Hope this helps anyone stuck like me.
Hmm, I built my own printer based on an Anet A8+ frame. Pretty much put all of the bigtreetech bells and whistles on it, along with a Pi with a screen that I need to finish installing. I spent many days fine tuning marlin and getting everything to home and work correctly. The thought of repeating any of that work seems daunting at best.
You mention in passing that it is a good idea to "send M503 in a terminal" to capture Marlin printer settings. But I don't see any explanation of how you do that. I guess some command is used on the Pi to send gcode commands to the mainboard USB. The same omission occurs in the Delta video.
That’s a lot of work. I’m eager to see what improvements come next to make that giant bed slinger print nice! I have two CR-10 S5’s that I want to overhaul to print much better detail
Everyone should also be aware that using the ACCEPT command will create a new z_offset: entry in the bottom section of the config file and the one in the main [BL_TOUCH] section will no longer apply. Just an FYI
FYI: There is a Klipper fork with the working touchscreen of the CR-10S Pro and sample configs bei github User Desuuuu: github.com/Desuuuu/klipper/tree/snapshot
I did find that but I wanted to try Klipperscreen. As you saw at the end it's running and working. Great to have proper control of Klipper from the printer. You can even update all of the components from there.
still kind of works today 2 years later.......got my CR-10 V3 humming with an H2 hot end replacement. I used a Pi 2 zero w. Much cheaper....but careful guys. It needs odd things that add up to the cost, like a micro usb to micro usb cable.
Hey, very informative video. Commenting as I just upgraded my CR10V2 with a SonicPad and installed a CRtouch. However I was bummed when I saw that the SonicPad doesn't have a klipper firmware generator that includes the CRtouch. Any advice would be appreciated.
I came back to ask you about the Pad 7 for my CR 10S Pro. I have Pi4 and Octo Print but this BTT Pad 7 looks so nice and just has all the tech and Klipper built in. I see You think My Pi4 could handle Klipper but then we need the human interface and other bits I am no t sure I could cobble that together we enough. I would like to hear your thoughts on the Pad 7 and the follow upgrades we then will need better part cooling faster Hot End and Linear Rails. I like my 10s Pro but would like it to be more reliable and faster. Maybe we can design a lighter Bed Frame???? Thank You so much for all your work and videos. Great help to the hobby. Dennis in Virginia
Oh Wow great video, I have a 10S Pro V1 with lots of updates. And Pi 4B with OctoPrint. I wanted to hear more about the setup after Klipper and the quality of print and the speed can you offer any feedback on results, Thank You , Dennis
Older posting but I appreciate it. I wish to upgrade my CR10 S4 to klipper software and ability. The Raspberry Pi 4, model D is still good to go? Do I need to switch the main controller board in my S4? Have a recommended board? My brother understands all this stuff, I do not which is why I ask here. He will help me but I am looking into finding the necessary parts. I am also going to upgrade my heating on the print bed, I upgraded his(cr10S5) , heats so fast now. I appreciate any advice from the people on this older post.
Hi, good explanation I built a large size 3d printer with build size 550x550x600 Its idex system, now I want to add 2 in 1 out hotends on both X1 and X2 carriages, presently Marlin don't support it Is klipper support this setup? My board is Octopus max EZ, it has 10 stepper drivers I am using X1, X2, Y1, Y2, Z1, Z2 and remaining 4 for 4 extruders Please help me
Jyers is great stuff, but wait till you see what klipper can do. And for anyone who's had to compile Marlin from scratch klipper is WAY easier and faster to make changes. Want to go from a 3x3 grid for bed mesh probing to 9x9, with Marlin you will need to compile firmware and flash it, in flipper you edit one text line and restart.
The biggest thing that steered me away from Klipper on my Ender 3 Pro was the inability to use the onboard display. I am curious if the Raspberry Pi 7" touch display will work with Klipper and Octopi, et al. as a solution to eliminate the BigTreeTech TFT35, but haven't ordered the screen and case yet for testing.
Yes, the RPI 7" screen is compatible, as is the BTT Pi specific tft50. Also look up Klipperscreen, there should be a list of compatible displays for that extension as well.
Klipper has out of the box support for the basic text display that the Ender 3 Pro uses. You can also customize the menus very freely, so it's quite handy to use.
I am at work next 3 weeks and have bad internet and cant watch while video. Do you say that now with the lastes update we don't need to upgrade motherboard to get linear advance, input shaping and pressure advance?
Hi Michael, I have a Creality CR-10s Pro (V1), and will be swapping out my original probe for a BL-Touch. Could I then use the creality-cr10s-pro-v2-2020.cfg as my base file?
Hi guys. Sorry for spamming. But i am new in 3D printing and this channel helped me a LOT! So, i am asking. Does this guy have creality ender 3 tutorial for bltouch with silent mainboard and marlin fw?
I am super late to the party. I have an old CR-10 Max. Unfortunately I moved and my stuff was in storage. I recently set up my office and printers, as well as bought a new Elegoo Neptune 4 Max with klipper, and that machine is FAST. Can this upgrade help my old CR-10? I have all the parts because I was running Octoprint on my CR-10, but had a hell of a time following the instructions here
Can You make A Marker And Eraser holder on Onshape plz I really need it in school it’s part of my project to make one so Plz can you show me how to make on Onshape.🥺
im getting an error when trying to compile on putty. its saying "i2c_config" incomplete and halt compilation. i tried going through and re downloading everthing and following the video step by step but i keep ending up in the same place. any ideas? CR10 MAX printer
I have a monoprice maker select V2 (wanhao duplicator i3 clone) where I put marlin on the stock board a few years ago but the board died. I had it setup with a metal distance probe, MOSFET for the heatbed and another mosfet for hotend. Since the main board died with it stopping printing after 5 miutes of use each time, I got the printer wired up to a ramps 1.4 board with Arduino underneath but I never bothered to flash the ardunio or set the VREF with the stepper drivers so its been sitting un-finished for a couple years. I would like to get it going with Klipper since I already have a Pi3 with it that was running octoprint but I would go the Fluidd route.
This is perfect! I’ve been looking for straight forward Kipper setup instructions since I’m building a 500x500 custom corexy machine and wanted to take care of Klipper’s features. I’ll be eating up with an SKR 3EZ and want to add the BTT driver expansion board. Does Klipper have an option for the expansion Modular’s that you know of?
I like the idea of pi being on wifi and using a spare old tablet on the same wifi as the Pi but I'm thinking in my head for how that to work best if I were to take the printer to a friends house or event since the wifi SSID/pass would be different there or no wifi at all.
Have you tried the BTT octopus? Been trying to find some clear info on setting up the octopus and using it to directly power a raspberry pi + setup clipper for an Ender 3. I’m assuming (can’t watch yet) that this video will cover the klipper stuff but would be nice to see a Octopus video from you if you’re able.
Hy, I wanted to play my CR-10 Max with a clipper, so far everything worked out. Unfortunately, you changed the config file on GitHub to CAN support. Unfortunately I can't use it because my printer is original. Could you provide the file again? hi and thank you very much.
How easy is this compared to Marlin for someone who is doing it for the very first time? I modified my CR-10S (upgraded to Creality’s Ender 5 Plus Silent Board, & Micro Swiss Direct Drive Extruder & Hot End plus all the other usuals) but I’d like to add a BLTouch (already bought) and up the max temp to print Polymaker’s Polymide PA6-CF which is recommended to print @ 280-300c. I’m lost as to which steps I need to take to flash the firmware. Btw excellent video per usual, the content is awesome and the quality is top notch. Thank you for all the help you’ve provided and will provide!
Would this work the the Creality V1.1.5 silent main board? I own and Ender 5 and I've been thinking of upgrading the mainboard to the BTT SKR mini E3 v2.0 but if this works with my old board I could just get a Raspberry Pi 4B.
did anyone find or created a .cfg file for the Creality CR-10S Pro V2 yet? Did not find anything pre-made and I'm afraid of doing something wrong in this huge config :( and btw: like always nice video!!
Since the much of the processing operations are offloaded to the pi is it then a safe assumption that you can get by with a less powerful control board? I'm finally at the point where I am looking to do some major upgrades and have decided to give klipper a try. I'd ideally like to buy as little as possible and keep costs low so I'm wondering about hardware minimal requirements.
Yes, typically the original control board will suffice, even if it is limited like in this case. You can always change it later if you change your mind.
One thing still bugs me about klipper: the apparent unwillingness to support the on-board screens for these printers. I would expect the klipper firmware could (or maybe even already does) just expose the pins (probably with some serial link) used by the display to the pi, no? If not, that seems generic enough to warrant getting support. Once you have that, can a plug-in on the pi side then not use those to drive the display and allow it to be used for basic control via the rotary encoder/knob as with Marlin? Having a web-interface is great, but not everyone has a tablet to spare or wants to add an extra touchscreen to the printer and for basic things just wants similar control as with Marlin ...
The BigTreeTech screens are usable with their mainboards but only in the emulation mode with the encoder…no touchscreen. Also the Creality touchscreens are usable with the Creality mainboards or with a small selection of other boards (mainly BTT) while using Klipper. I’ve been working on my CR10S - Pro with BTT SKR 1.4 Turbo, original Creality touchscreen all on Klipper. It isn’t directly supported by the Klipper team but by Desuuu on Github. You’ll need to use his version of Klipper to enable serial connection to the touchscreen as well as his touchscreen firmware update. Took a while to install and get working but finally got most things working today! I can link you the Desuuu Github and info on how to use the BTT screens if you’d like.
from the clipper site under features: "Support for common LCD displays attached directly to the printer. A default menu is also available. The contents of the display and menu can be fully customized via the config file."
@@pippaengroda That’s for the old lcd screens you’d find on a CR10S or Ender 3. The LCD with the encoder wheel, known as the 12864LCD. Works fine with Klipper but people want to see more screens supported. You can use the dual mode BTT TFT screens but only in the 12864 LCD emulation mode. With a bit of tweaking and screen firmware you can get that to work. Also you can get the touchscreen on the CR10S Pro and Max to work with the Desuu branch of Klipper. Would be nice to see them implement that in the main release. Enables serial connection option for the touchscreen all you have to do is flash custom screen firmware. Works great!

I got it done when through cura custom settings now have it running YEAH eh!!
I can not figure out what I am doing wrong. I can flash the firmware and get confirmation. But the CR-10S display is always blank. Need help please.
Will this work on the Creality CR-10 v3?
I came back to ask you about the Pad 7 for my CR 10S Pro. I have Pi4 and Octo Print but this BTT Pad 7 looks so nice and just has all the tech and Klipper built in. I see You think My Pi4 could handle Klipper but then we need the human interface and other bits I am no t sure I could cobble that together we enough. I would like to hear your thoughts on the Pad 7 and the follow upgrades we then will need better part cooling faster Hot End and Linear Rails. I like my 10s Pro but would like it to be more reliable and faster. Maybe we can design a lighter Bed Frame???? Thank You so much for all your work and videos. Great help to the hobby. Dennis in Virginia
Oh Wow great video, I have a 10S Pro V1 with lots of updates. And Pi 4B with OctoPrint. I wanted to hear more about the setup after Klipper and the quality of print and the speed can you offer any feedback on results, Thank You , Dennis
I am getting braver but not quite ready to jump into the deep end. Soon. Thank You for such a great job helping us all so much.
Love the video but i am stuck at 10:07 when i hit enter it comes back with make: *** No rule to make target 'flash'. Stop. help please
Older posting but I appreciate it. I wish to upgrade my CR10 S4 to klipper software and ability. The Raspberry Pi 4, model D is still good to go? Do I need to switch the main controller board in my S4? Have a recommended board? My brother understands all this stuff, I do not which is why I ask here. He will help me but I am looking into finding the necessary parts. I am also going to upgrade my heating on the print bed, I upgraded his(cr10S5) , heats so fast now. I appreciate any advice from the people on this older post.
Hi. I want to connect my creality sonic pad with creality cr 10 smart pro, what do i need to do? Thank you
Hi, good explanation
I built a large size 3d printer with build size 550x550x600
Its idex system, now I want to add 2 in 1 out hotends on both X1 and X2 carriages, presently Marlin don't support it
Is klipper support this setup?
My board is Octopus max EZ, it has 10 stepper drivers
I am using X1, X2, Y1, Y2, Z1, Z2 and remaining 4 for 4 extruders
Please help me
Just GREAT job!...
This looks interesting but I think I'll stick to the jyersUI firmware on my Ender 3 V2!
Jyers is great stuff, but wait till you see what klipper can do. And for anyone who's had to compile Marlin from scratch klipper is WAY easier and faster to make changes. Want to go from a 3x3 grid for bed mesh probing to 9x9, with Marlin you will need to compile firmware and flash it, in flipper you edit one text line and restart.
20:52 just noticed that the blobs on the corner are the same on both cubes, wild
I want to give Klipper a try but I can't go without my touch screen.
no matter where I seem too look I cant find the marlin config example files for the cr10-max or my printer the cr10-S Pro v2 any advice?
Hello, good evening. Can someone tell me why PROBE is not accepted. "endstop_pin: probe:z_virtual_endstop"
Unknown pin chip name 'probe'
The biggest thing that steered me away from Klipper on my Ender 3 Pro was the inability to use the onboard display. I am curious if the Raspberry Pi 7" touch display will work with Klipper and Octopi, et al. as a solution to eliminate the BigTreeTech TFT35, but haven't ordered the screen and case yet for testing.
Yes, the RPI 7" screen is compatible, as is the BTT Pi specific tft50. Also look up Klipperscreen, there should be a list of compatible displays for that extension as well.
Klipper has out of the box support for the basic text display that the Ender 3 Pro uses. You can also customize the menus very freely, so it's quite handy to use.
i needto know which lcd type does cr10s pro have and which settings i should use for that! anyone has an idea??
I am at work next 3 weeks and have bad internet and cant watch while video. Do you say that now with the lastes update we don't need to upgrade motherboard to get linear advance, input shaping and pressure advance?
Hi Michael, I have a Creality CR-10s Pro (V1), and will be swapping out my original probe for a BL-Touch. Could I then use the creality-cr10s-pro-v2-2020.cfg as my base file?
Hi guys. Sorry for spamming. But i am new in 3D printing and this channel helped me a LOT! So, i am asking. Does this guy have creality ender 3 tutorial for bltouch with silent mainboard and marlin fw?
I am super late to the party.
I have an old CR-10 Max. Unfortunately I moved and my stuff was in storage. I recently set up my office and printers, as well as bought a new Elegoo Neptune 4 Max with klipper, and that machine is FAST.
Can this upgrade help my old CR-10?
I have all the parts because I was running Octoprint on my CR-10, but had a hell of a time following the instructions here
does it hae to be a raspberry pi 4 can i use a different model pi thnx
Thank you for the video, can you run klipper on an old laptop or tab?
Great tutorial! So, what you think about do this process with Artillery X1?
@teachingtech, could you make a step by step guide for the CR-6 SE? Thanks.
Same steps, just different printer.cfg.
Who is "General Failure" and why is he attempting to access my hard drive, after running the Balena Etcher?
give tutorial instal klipper in ender 3 v2 and input shaper tuning
I would like to install kipper on my CR-10 smart. Do you have a configuration for the smart. Or have you thought about making a video?
Thanks
Can You make A Marker And Eraser holder on Onshape plz I really need it in school it’s part of my project to make one so Plz can you show me how to make on Onshape.🥺
im getting an error when trying to compile on putty. its saying "i2c_config" incomplete and halt compilation. i tried going through and re downloading everthing and following the video step by step but i keep ending up in the same place. any ideas? CR10 MAX printer
I have a monoprice maker select V2 (wanhao duplicator i3 clone) where I put marlin on the stock board a few years ago but the board died. I had it setup with a metal distance probe, MOSFET for the heatbed and another mosfet for hotend. Since the main board died with it stopping printing after 5 miutes of use each time, I got the printer wired up to a ramps 1.4 board with Arduino underneath but I never bothered to flash the ardunio or set the VREF with the stepper drivers so its been sitting un-finished for a couple years. I would like to get it going with Klipper since I already have a Pi3 with it that was running octoprint but I would go the Fluidd route.
Would your printer.config file work on the Creality Sonic Pad?
This is perfect! I’ve been looking for straight forward Kipper setup instructions since I’m building a 500x500 custom corexy machine and wanted to take care of Klipper’s features. I’ll be eating up with an SKR 3EZ and want to add the BTT driver expansion board. Does Klipper have an option for the expansion Modular’s that you know of?
THX for tutorial i hope i am able to get it throu .....
I like the idea of pi being on wifi and using a spare old tablet on the same wifi as the Pi but I'm thinking in my head for how that to work best if I were to take the printer to a friends house or event since the wifi SSID/pass would be different there or no wifi at all.
Before travel, change to your phone wifi and y'r good to go.
Have you tried the BTT octopus? Been trying to find some clear info on setting up the octopus and using it to directly power a raspberry pi + setup clipper for an Ender 3.
I’m assuming (can’t watch yet) that this video will cover the klipper stuff but would be nice to see a Octopus video from you if you’re able.
Does anyone know how to set this up for a CR-X with Silent mainboard?
Hy, I wanted to play my CR-10 Max with a clipper, so far everything worked out. Unfortunately, you changed the config file on GitHub to CAN support. Unfortunately I can't use it because my printer is original. Could you provide the file again? hi and thank you very much.
Im looking for the same file. Any luck finding the one without canbus?
It's still there, check the history
How easy is this compared to Marlin for someone who is doing it for the very first time? I modified my CR-10S (upgraded to Creality’s Ender 5 Plus Silent Board, & Micro Swiss Direct Drive Extruder & Hot End plus all the other usuals) but I’d like to add a BLTouch (already bought) and up the max temp to print Polymaker’s Polymide PA6-CF which is recommended to print @ 280-300c. I’m lost as to which steps I need to take to flash the firmware.
Btw excellent video per usual, the content is awesome and the quality is top notch. Thank you for all the help you’ve provided and will provide!
Thanks for the how-to! I was able to get my 3D printer up and running!
Hi do you need a rasberry for every printer? or can you have configs for differant printers on one PI ?
I am not sure if it is worth the effort. Never change a running system!
Maybe it's because I run Windows 11, but the OS now supports ssh and scp out of the box. No need to install Putty and WinSCP anymore.
Would this work the the Creality V1.1.5 silent main board?
I own and Ender 5 and I've been thinking of upgrading the mainboard to the BTT SKR mini E3 v2.0 but if this works with my old board I could just get a Raspberry Pi 4B.
did anyone find or created a .cfg file for the Creality CR-10S Pro V2 yet? Did not find anything pre-made and I'm afraid of doing something wrong in this huge config :(
and btw: like always nice video!!
before I watch the video, who about the safety features? everything needed on "board"? :D
Since the much of the processing operations are offloaded to the pi is it then a safe assumption that you can get by with a less powerful control board? I'm finally at the point where I am looking to do some major upgrades and have decided to give klipper a try. I'd ideally like to buy as little as possible and keep costs low so I'm wondering about hardware minimal requirements.
Yes, typically the original control board will suffice, even if it is limited like in this case. You can always change it later if you change your mind.
@@TeachingTech Thank you. Greatly appreciated.
Is this board plug and play as far as the connections?
One thing still bugs me about klipper: the apparent unwillingness to support the on-board screens for these printers. I would expect the klipper firmware could (or maybe even already does) just expose the pins (probably with some serial link) used by the display to the pi, no? If not, that seems generic enough to warrant getting support. Once you have that, can a plug-in on the pi side then not use those to drive the display and allow it to be used for basic control via the rotary encoder/knob as with Marlin? Having a web-interface is great, but not everyone has a tablet to spare or wants to add an extra touchscreen to the printer and for basic things just wants similar control as with Marlin ...
The BigTreeTech screens are usable with their mainboards but only in the emulation mode with the encoder…no touchscreen.
Also the Creality touchscreens are usable with the Creality mainboards or with a small selection of other boards (mainly BTT) while using Klipper. I’ve been working on my CR10S - Pro with BTT SKR 1.4 Turbo, original Creality touchscreen all on Klipper.
It isn’t directly supported by the Klipper team but by Desuuu on Github. You’ll need to use his version of Klipper to enable serial connection to the touchscreen as well as his touchscreen firmware update. Took a while to install and get working but finally got most things working today!
I can link you the Desuuu Github and info on how to use the BTT screens if you’d like.
from the clipper site under features: "Support for common LCD displays attached directly to the printer. A default menu is also available. The contents of the display and menu can be fully customized via the config file."
@@pippaengroda That’s for the old lcd screens you’d find on a CR10S or Ender 3. The LCD with the encoder wheel, known as the 12864LCD. Works fine with Klipper but people want to see more screens supported.
You can use the dual mode BTT TFT screens but only in the 12864 LCD emulation mode. With a bit of tweaking and screen firmware you can get that to work.
Also you can get the touchscreen on the CR10S Pro and Max to work with the Desuu branch of Klipper. Would be nice to see them implement that in the main release. Enables serial connection option for the touchscreen all you have to do is flash custom screen firmware. Works great!
Is there an equivalent klipper command for G34 with dual z axis?
From memory it's Z_TILT_ADJUST
That's what I use on the Rat Rig to level the bed with the three Z steppers.
Can u run more than 1 printer using kipper off of 1 PI? Just by creating separate profiles in fluid? Or do u need a separate PI for each printer?
