USB Firmware Compilation

Check the DIP Switch

Note

• During normal operation, please slide the switch to the up position
• When adjusting the DIP switch, please make sure to push it all the way up, otherwise the connection to the device might fail!!!

SSH into the Host Machine

Warning

• Before compiling the firmware, you need to connect to the host machine's SSH via Wi-Fi

• First, please: Connect to the host machine's SSH via Wi-Fi

USB Firmware Flashing

USB Firmware Flashing

Tip

• A USB firmware has already been pre-compiled in the FLYOS-FAST system. There is no need to compile it manually. Just execute the command below to flash the firmware
• Alternatively, you can choose to compile the USB firmware manually and build it yourself

• Connect to the host machine via SSH and enter the command below

fly-flash -d auto -h -f /usr/lib/firmware/klipper-h723-128k-usb.bin

Klipper Firmware Compilation and Configuration Page Operation Instructions

tip

Please ensure that the keyboard input method is in half-width mode, i.e., English mode.

1. The up arrow key ↑, down arrow key ↓ are used to move the cursor up and down to select menu items.
2. The confirm key Enter or space key Space is used to check the menu or enter a sub-menu.

warning

If there are fewer options in the configuration page, please first check [ ] Enable extra low-level configuration options to display some hidden options.

Below is an introduction on how to compile the firmware:

• After connecting to SSH, enter the following command and press Enter:

  cd ~/klipper && rm -rf ~/klipper/.config && rm -rf ~/klipper/out && make menuconfig

• Where rm -rf ~/klipper/.config && rm -rf ~/klipper/out is to delete previous compilation data and firmware, make menuconfig is to compile the firmware, after execution, the following interface should appear

  

• Select Enable extra low-level configuration options and press Enter

  

• Enter the menu Micro-controller Architecture then select STMicroelectronics STM32 and press Enter

  

• Enter the menu Processor model, select STM32H723 and press Enter

  

• Select Bootloader offset, select: 128KiB bootloader

  

• Select Clock Reference (8 MHz crystal), select: 25 MHz crystal

  

• Communication interface, select: USB (on PA11/PA12)

  

• Press the Q key, then Save configuration will appear, at this point press the Y key

• The configuration should now be saved, and you will exit back to the command line interface

• Enter the command below to start the compilation, which may take some time

make -j4

• If the compilation is successful, the following output will appear

Search USB ID

1. Open the browser and enter the IP address of the host computer in the address bar. For example, if my host computer's IP is 192.168.101.179, simply type it in and press Enter.

2. Open the WEB interface of the host computer, and in the configuration section of the left sidebar, find:

For fluidd: {…}, click into it to find printer.cfg

For mainsail: Machine, click into it to find printer.cfg

3. After entering printer.cfg, click on DEVICES at the top right corner.

4. Click on SERIAL, then refresh.

   Refresh for fluidd

   Refresh for mainsail

5. Copy the ID; click the arrow to copy.

   For fluidd, check if ttyAMC exists, and ensure that Path by ID exists; this is the USBID

   For mainsail, check if ttyAMC exists, and ensure that Path by ID exists; this is the USBID

Fill in USB ID

1. Close DEVICES and fill in the ID

Note

• Please change the following in the configuration file:

[mcu] 
serial: /tmp/klipper_host_mcu

to

[mcu host] 
serial: /tmp/klipper_host_mcu

• Add:

[mcu]
serial: <Replace this with the ID you just found>

In fluidd, locate [MCU]

In mainsail, locate [MCU]

2. Fill in the ID into the configuration.

tip

• After filling in the ID, click SAVE & RESTART at the top right corner.

3. If Klipper shows a warning ADC out of range, this is normal. Connect the heated bed and thermistor to the mainboard, and configure the thermistor pins for the nozzle and heated bed, then save and restart.

dangerous

Note: All IDs shown in this document are examples. Each mainboard's ID is different; please fill in the actual ID you obtained.
