Reading and Viewing Motherboard ID
Precautions Before Searching for Devices
- Before obtaining the ID, please first connect to SSH.
- Please ensure that the data cable connecting the lower computer to the upper computer has data transfer capabilities.
- After connecting to the upper computer via SSH, input
lsusb
and press Enter. Several devices may appear. - If the system does not support
lsusb
, you can execute the following command to install it. - If no devices appear after
lsusb
, please replace the upper computer!
sudo apt-get install usbutils


- Please confirm whether the motherboard firmware has been flashed with the correct firmware.
- If it is a USB firmware,
1d50:614e
should appear afterlsusb
. - If it is a USB bridge CAN firmware,
1d50:606f
should appear afterlsusb
. - If it is an RS232 firmware, UTOR or G2T must be used in conjunction. G2T does not require firmware searching, while UTOR should appear as
1a86:7523
afterlsusb
.
Precautions During Searching for Devices
The search ID command cannot be mixed!!!
- Please note that USB firmware can only use the USB ID search method.
- Please note that USB bridge CAN firmware can only use the CAN ID search method.
- Please note that RS232 firmware can only use the RS232 ID search method.
- If
0483:df11
appears, it may indicate that the firmware has been flashed but the motherboard was not powered off and restarted. If the issue persists after powering off and restarting the motherboard, check if DFU (jumper/dip switch/button) has been disconnected. - If
2e8a:0003
appears, it may indicate that the wrong firmware has been flashed. Note that RP2040 can only flash UF2 firmware compiled from source code; other firmware cannot be flashed. After2e8a:0003
appears, disconnect BOOT (jumper/dip switch/button) to avoid flashing failure!!! - The UF2 firmware for RP2040 is compiled with
No bootloader
option to generate the UF2 firmware.

Precautions Before Searching for Devices
- Please connect to SSH before searching for the USB ID Connect to SSH
- Please note that you need to ensure that you log in to SSH via the network rather than via serial port
- Please ensure that the mainboard with the flashed USB firmware is connected, and the data cable connecting to the host computer has data transmission function
Search for Devices
- Ensure that the host computer can connect normally to the network, and ensure that the data cable connecting the downstream device to the host computer has data transmission function.
- After SSH connection to the host computer, enter
lsusb
and press Enter. If the information circled in the image below appears, you can proceed to the next step.- If there is no feedback at all, this is a system problem with the host computer. We are unable to help. You need to replace it with a confirmed normal system or replace the host computer.
- If the prompt says there is no
lsusb
command, you can execute the following command to install:sudo apt-get install usbutils
1d50:6177
belongs to the device you will use this time.- Some host computers may not display fully or not display due to system issues.
- If the
lsusb
command can display the device but does not show1d50:6177
, please try replacing the data cable and connecting the mainboard to another USB port on the host computer.
- If you have executed the above steps before and successfully burned the Klipper firmware, the mainboard is running normally, and you just need to update the Klipper firmware, please directly refer to the
Firmware Update
section in the right-hand menu bar of this page.
You must query the 1d50:6177
device before proceeding to the next step
Search for USBID
ls /dev/serial/by-id/*
- Enter the command below and press Enter. If everything is normal, one blue ID will appear. (The following is for reference only)

- If no ID appears after entering the command below, but
lsusb
shows the device, please replace the host computer or the host computer system.
If multiple IDs appear, please select the corresponding ID based on your mainboard's MCU model.
Fill in the USB ID into the configuration
-
Open the printer web interface, find
printer.cfg
under the configuration option in the left sidebar: fluidd is{...}
, mainsail isMachine
, click to enter. -
Copy the blue ID and paste it into the
serial:
field under the[mcu]
node in theprinter.cfg
configuration file. After saving and restarting, the motherboard can be connected. If Klipper promptsADC out of range
, it is a normal phenomenon. Connect the heated bed and thermistor properly, configure the thermistor and output pins for the nozzle and heated bed, then save and restart.
Note: All IDs shown in the document are examples. The actual ID of each mainboard is different. Please modify and fill in according to the actual obtained ID.
