Installing firmware on ramps 1.4 board

General Discussion

  • Setup a Pi OS Lite on Pi 3
  • Installed Kiauh to then install klipper, moonraker, mainsail, and fluidd
  • So now I need to install the firmware on arduino 2560 with ramps 1.4 ontop of it
  • I have it plugged in via USB and this is what I’m seeing and in the “make menuconfig” I selected arduino 2560 and saved it.

Then seeing this but I only have USB from the Pi powering the arduino 2560 with no 12v to the ramps board on top of it then nothing connected to the ramps pins on top. This is all new to me but I want to learn :slight_smile:

In the Klipper folder run

make clean
make menuconfig

In make menuconfig toggle
[ ] Enable extra low-level configuration options
on and then off again. Then press Q. Following dialog must appear:

Confirm with Y

Now run make

So when ardunio 2560 is selected, its assumed that I’m using a ramps board with it?

I still get this but is that because I’ve haven’t setup the printer.cfg and that I don’t have 12v powering up the ramps board?

Connection is working when fully configured.
