Have you checked the serial in [mcu]?

4

i have tried several different cables and still nothing

5

Here is a how to:

https://www.klipper3d.org/FAQ.html#wheres-my-serial-port

7

it says
pi@pi:~ $ ls /dev/serial/by-id/*
ls: cannot access ‘/dev/serial/by-id/*’: No such file or directory

It seems your printer does not appear with your Pi.

Experience showed: Always try one USB cable more.

Actually, there are a lot of power only USB cables around and the data cables can not be easily distinguished.

i just went and bought a new cable and still no luck. does it matter which usb port im connecting it to on the pi?

10

Usually It does not matter.

Have you been able to upload the Klipper firmware part to the Pi?

11

i flashed the pi with raspberry pi os then i used kiauh and installed klipper mainsail and moonraker

12

what does it mean when i the get mcu id and if i click uart it comes up as mcu#1 ttyAMA0
