Welcome, everybody here is or was new to klipper 😉

Why don’t you use Klipper’s original sources [https://github.com/Klipper3d/klipper/blob/master/config/printer-sovol-sv01-2020.cfg](https://github.com/Klipper3d/klipper/blob/master/config/printer-sovol-sv01-2020.cfg)?

Don’t start with a source from somwhere in the www (no offense to above mentioned author).

I would recommend always using recommended sources here [https://github.com/dw-0/kiauh/blob/master/README.md](https://github.com/dw-0/kiauh/blob/master/README.md).

Sineos knowledge base [Knowledge Base - Klipper](https://klipper.discourse.group/c/knowledge-base/16) is always helpful.

E.g. for your problem [How-To Trouble-Shoot](https://klipper.discourse.group/t/how-to-trouble-shoot/6326) ( Connection Problems to the Printer Board).

Why would you use a USB to uart converter in your setup. You connect your linux pc to your Creality V2.2 by USB cable. I guess USB-A to mini USB.

You got a whole lotta reading in front of you and it’s worth doing it.

Good luck, hcet14

Edit: Most important use that one

almost everything was mentioned here before.
