### Basic Information: Printer Model: Vcore3 MCU / Printerboard: Ooctopus pro + U2C + EBB42 [klippy.log](https://klipper.discourse.group/uploads/short-url/dAgfQCaS3gWUfvLbTpzSaJKanOQ.log) (3.7 MB) `klippy.log` _Fill out above information and in all cases attach your_ `klippy.log` _file. Pasting your_ `printer.cfg` _is **not** needed_ ### Describe your issue: Let’s see another day plagued with failures, it’s the same request as always, but although I was very interested in installing a Canboard connected by CAN, everything has been failures, the closest I’ve been is a Mellow SHT42, but with which I could NOT print not a single layer… I have been following another guide, which are the components I want to install: [![](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/free1/uploads/klipper/original/2X/4/471e1e74b2aa39cec1a8e3a6d760c85a69f22a17.jpeg "YES!! You CANBus Setup.") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ucq3U-H2N-A) Following the steps of the video well, but when I get to minute 12 approx, I have already flashed, wired and configured everything… and restarted… I send the script to find out the UUID, but I get the same error as other times . The truth is that I am getting tired of NOT being able to use the printer, I had high hopes for the connection with the toolboard by CAN, but I am losing them. When I get to minute 12 or so, and send: ~/klippy-env/bin/python ~/klipper/scripts/canbus\_query.py can0, this bug pi@ratos:~ $ ~/klippy-env/bin/python ~/klipper/scripts/canbus\_query.py can0 Traceback (most recent call last): File “/home/pi/klipper/scripts/canbus\_query.py”, line 64, in main() File “/home/pi/klipper/scripts/canbus\_query.py”, line 61, in main query\_unassigned(canbus\_iface) File “/home/pi/klipper/scripts/canbus\_query.py”, line 21, in query\_unassigned bustype=‘socketcan’) File “/home/pi/klippy-env/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/can/interface.py”, line 127, in **new** return cls(channel, \*args, \*\*kwargs) File “/home/pi/klippy-env/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/can/interfaces/socketcan/socketcan.py”, line 594, in **init** bind\_socket(self.socket, channel) File “/home/pi/klippy-env/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/can/interfaces/socketcan/socketcan.py”, line 462, in bind\_socket addr = get\_addr(sock, channel) File “/home/pi/klippy-env/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/can/interfaces/socketcan/socketcan.py”, line 62, in get\_addr res = fcntl.ioctl(sock, SIOCGIFINDEX, data) IOError: [Errno 19] No such device I could solve this error previously, with a script that you passed me through the forum, this one: sudo ip link set up can0 type can bitrate 500000 But having the Can Board configured like this, shortly after starting to print, the printing fails, a time out error, and if you looked at the Ifconfig, you could see many packages with errors… This couple of days I have tried the combination: Octopus Pro + U2C + EBB42… the three elements of Bigtreetch. As a note to review is that I have flashed the Candelight firmware in the U2C. and I followed another video guide, this time: [![](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/free1/uploads/klipper/original/2X/4/471e1e74b2aa39cec1a8e3a6d760c85a69f22a17.jpeg "YES!! You CANBus Setup.") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ucq3U-H2N-A) Another point is that if I command “ifconfig”, the CAN0 network interface does not appear. For it to appear, I have to send a script… A few days ago, I was very happy because I got it to be, another combination: Octopus Pro - Utoc 1 - SHT 42 But the joy didn’t last long, since shortly after, in the first printing job, it stopped due to timeouts… That’s partly why I decided to change to the EBB42… but nothing. Does anyone have an idea what I may be doing wrong? This time there is something new… before, although the script failed, it sent this to the console: sudo ip link set up can0 type can bitrate 500000 and at least the network interface CAN0 appeared with ifconfig, this time, if I send it the script, the response is: Cannot find device “can0” So I don’t know very well what I can do, I have also seen that there is a firmware update, which I think modifies something about the CANBUS. ---

Hi, The Can0 Network… Does it have to be visible only with the Can adapter connected by usb to the RPi? Do you need the can board, Ebb42 or Sht42, to be connected? I ask is to try things in parts. Connect only the canbus adapter (U2C or Utoc1) and see if they activate the can0 Network ---

Sorry, but the thread title is quite confusing. Do you mean _Board with CAN bus connection_? ---

Do you have the 120r jumpers installed on the EBB and the U2C? ---
