#### Do I need to re-flash the motherboard?
|
|
|
|
You will _almost never_ need to re-flash `klipper.bin`. When this is needed, your dashboard will explicitly tell you that you need to re-flash.
|
|
|
|
#### Where does Klipper live?
|
|
|
|
1. On the motherboard.
|
|
2. On the host device (Raspberry Pi, etc.).
|
|
|
|
🗒️ These 2 versions of klipper can rightly differ.
|
|
|
|
#### Should I update Klipper, moonraker, etc.?
|
|
|
|
I always update everything on the host device via the dashboard. I don't want to miss out on improvements, especially those that improve safety. What this means is that on some occasions, there will be breaking changes: you will need to change a few things in your config **before you can print**. I would suggest that if you absolutely have to get something printed immediately and there's an update, perhaps wait till after the print completes to do the update.
|
|
|
|
Others will argue that 'if it ain't broke, don't fix it'.
|
|
|
|
You have to decide what camp you want to be apart off.
|
|
|
|
#### How-To
|
|
|
|
##### Update Klipper repo first
|
|
|
|
It's always best to update the Klipper repository that lives on the host before compiling. This ensures that your `klipper.bin` will be as 'fresh' as possible.
|
|
|
|
- In `Fluidd`, you can do this from `Settings` > `Software Updates`.
|
|
- In `Mainsail`, you can do this from `Machine` > `Update Manager`.
|
|
|
|
##### Compile `klipper.bin`
|
|
|
|
🗒️ The `compilation settings` you see in the image below apply only the the `SV06/Plus` boards, but the steps for compilation apply to any board.
|
|
|
|
1. `ssh` into the Klipper host (i.e., RPi, OrangePi, etc.).
|
|
2. `cd ~/klipper`
|
|
3. `make menuconfig`
|
|
4. Set things up to look as follows:
|
|
|
|
5. `make clean`
|
|
- Clears `~/klipper/out/`
|
|
6. `make`
|
|
- Compiles `klipper.bin` and puts it in `~/klipper/out/`
