    Did you notice any difference in the printers performance after the FW update? Reliability, speed or whatever?

    • @BV3D
      @BV3D  Місяць тому +1

      I haven't noticed a difference. They added some features related to Obico for printer monitoring, but I don't use Obico's service. They may have added or streamlined other features behind the scenes as well.

    What is the difference of flasing firmware to burning the img file to the emmc? I tried to run the kaiuh update on klipper but it failed, it did update moonraker but then moonraker says it is broken now. Firmware update did not fix it, Reset does nothing but screw with the WiFi connection.

    Really great video, thank you!
    My question is:
    What about other settings like Pressure Advance? Is it not needed to calibrate anymore? I thought I read that it can auto calibrate it, but I can't seem to find that info anymore...

  • @HackMonkey
    @HackMonkey Місяць тому +1

    So how did you know it needed an update? Was there any indication in the web UI? Like a typical Klipper install? Are any updates shown or done through web UI.

    • @BV3D
      @BV3D  Місяць тому

      I only knew by comparing the revision listed on the printer's Information menu, and the Sovol Wiki page for the SV08. I haven't tried updating via the Mainsail UI, mostly because Sovol had this other procedure in place.

  • @MakerMeraki
    @MakerMeraki Місяць тому

    As a long-term Klipper user, why is Sovol not just allowing you to do the update via the Mainsail Update Manager under Machine? They could add their own entry for any specific stuff you need to add like macros. The SV08 is the only Klipper machine I own that doesn't allow me update it and the OS this way. 😬

  • @StewKeto3DPrinting
    @StewKeto3DPrinting Місяць тому +3

    I'm still on the fence about plunking down my hard earned for an SV08, although knowing that Sovol is doing firmware updates is promising. Do you SSH into your SV08 and does it automatically save a previous copy of your printer.cfg file?

    • @BV3D
      @BV3D  Місяць тому +1

      Hi Stew, it _DID_ save a copy of *printer.cfg* as *printer-backup.cfg* but it looks like it overwrote some changes I made in the *macros.cfg* file to change the screen backlight color. I'll have to re-do those. I don't SSH to the printer, I interact with it in a web browser.

      @@BV3D That's a shame. At least it's not Marlin and you have to reset everything after each firmware upgrade to be sure. Thanks again for the great content, although you were a bit lacking in the usual quantity of the puns and Dad jokes, LOL.

    So the emmc adapter. Whats that for? 🤨

    • @BV3D
      @BV3D  Місяць тому +1

      That's for re-flashing the operating system on the EMMC storage, on the printer's main board. So, on a Raspberry Pi-based Klipper printer, you could just pull the MicroSD card out of the board and re-flash it. But on this board, its on-board storage is an EMMC module. The USB adapter has a port for the EMMC module. Remove the EMMC module from the printer's main board, plug the module into the adapter, plug the adapter into a USB port, and re-flash the operating system using the Rasperry Pi Imager utility.
      The whole "re-flash the operating system" process is something that could be useful if something gets corrupted on the on-board OS and it can no longer boot.

    It is kinda stupid to not have any information on the screen about the update process. And nowadays everything is done Ota so this seems preeeeetty old stuff. You can see the level of this company by these little things.

    • @TheAfroman
      @TheAfroman Місяць тому

      Yeah, I can see that.. issue is.. this machine is very much like any other Voron or Ratrig. There never really is any “firmware” for those.. it’s all about printer.cfg and klipper updates. So whatever the firmware is doing is at a board level.

    So much for attention to detail, maybe they weren't important details, just suggestions. Sheesh!
