Hi  
Is there anyone out there which can write what these Klipper error codes mean.  
It is very hard if you do not understand what is happening. There needs to be a list for dummies so a person can fix problems instead of stumbling in the dark. To promote 3D printing this would help a lot of people.

My printer is a Voron 2.4 350  
Board is a BTT octopus V1.1  
do not know what Host ,SBC means  
unable to read TMC UART stepper Z register IFCN  
Please understand that we are 80 year old veterans and are keen to learn

## # Basic Information:

Printer Model:  
 MCU / Printerboard:  
 Host / SBC  
 klippy.log

_Fill out above information and_ **_in all cases attach your_ `klippy.log` _file_** (use zip to compress it, if too big). _Pasting your_ `printer.cfg` _is **not** needed_  
_ **Be sure to check our “Knowledge Base” Category first. Most relevant items, e.g. error messages, are covered there** _

Currently, there are three reliable sources for this:

- [Frequently Asked Questions - Klipper documentation](https://www.klipper3d.org/FAQ.html)
- [TMC drivers - Klipper documentation](https://www.klipper3d.org/TMC_Drivers.html#common-questions)
- [Knowledge Base - Klipper](https://klipper.discourse.group/c/knowledge-base/16)

Of course, it can be debated that the organization, accessibility, and content have room for improvement.  
Given that all of this is written by unpaid volunteers who are following the open-source idea, everyone is encouraged to contribute to improvements.

Hi  
Please do not take my comments as being negative as one appreciates the work people are doing. Being a senior people we have got left behind in the technology world. We are finding it hard to grasp the concept and the little details that could help us navigate .
