This document describes the process of running Klipper on a RPi
|
||||
and use the same RPi as secondary mcu.
|
||||
|
||||
Why use RPi as a secondary MCU?
|
||||
===============================
|
||||
Often the MCUs dedicated to controlling 3D printers have a limited and
|
||||
pre-configured number of exposed pins to manage the main printing
|
||||
functions (thermal resistors, extruders, steppers ...).
|
||||
Using the RPi where Klipper is installed as a secondary MCU gives the
|
||||
possibility to directly use the GPIOs and the buses (i2c, spi) of the RPi
|
||||
inside klipper without using Octoprint plugins (if used) or external
|
||||
programs giving the ability to control everything within the print GCODE.
|
||||
|
||||
**Warning**: If your platform is a _Beaglebone_ and you have correctly followed the installation steps, the linux mcu is already installed and configured for your system.
|
||||
|
||||
Install the rc script
|
||||
=====================
|
||||
|
||||
If you want to use the host as a secondary MCU the klipper_mcu process must run before the klippy process.
|
||||
|
||||
After installing Klipper, install the script. run:
|
||||
```
|
||||
cd ~/klipper/
|
||||
sudo cp "./scripts/klipper-mcu-start.sh" /etc/init.d/klipper_mcu
|
||||
sudo update-rc.d klipper_mcu defaults
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Building the micro-controller code
|
||||
==================================
|
||||
|
||||
To compile the Klipper micro-controller code, start by configuring it
|
||||
for the "Linux process":
|
||||
```
|
||||
cd ~/klipper/
|
||||
make menuconfig
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
To build and install the new micro-controller code, run:
|
||||
```
|
||||
sudo service klipper stop
|
||||
make flash
|
||||
sudo service klipper start
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Remaining configuration
|
||||
=======================
|
||||
|
||||
Complete the installation by configuring Klipper secondary MCU
|
||||
following the instructions in
|
||||
[RasperryPi example config](../config/example-rasperry-pi.cfg) and
|
||||
[Multi MCU example config](../config/example-multi-mcu.cfg).
|
||||
|
||||
Optional: Identify the correct gpiochip
|
||||
=======================================
|
||||
On Rasperry and on many clones the pins exposed on the GPIO belong to the first gpiochip. They can therefore be used on klipper simply by referring them with the name `gpio0..n`.
|
||||
However, there are cases in which the exposed pins belong to gpiochips other than the first. For example in the case of some OrangePi models or if a Port Expander is used. In these cases it is useful to use the commands to access the _Linux GPIO character device_ to verify the configuration.
|
||||
|
||||
To install the _Linux GPIO character device - binary_ on a debian based distro like octopi run:
|
||||
```
|
||||
sudo apt-get install gpiod
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
To check available gpiochip run:
|
||||
```
|
||||
gpiodetect
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
To check the pin number and the pin availability tun:
|
||||
```
|
||||
gpioinfo
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The chosen pin can thus be used within the configuration as `gpiochip<n>/gpio<o>` where **n** is the chip number as seen by the `gpiodetect` command and **o** is the line number seen by the` gpioinfo` command.
|
||||
|
||||
***Warning:*** only gpio marked as `unused` can be used. It is not possible for a _line_ to be used by multiple processes simultaneously.
|
||||
|
||||
For example on a RPi 3B+ where klipper use the GPIO20 for a switch:
|
||||
```
|
||||
$ gpiodetect
|
||||
gpiochip0 [pinctrl-bcm2835] (54 lines)
|
||||
gpiochip1 [raspberrypi-exp-gpio] (8 lines)
|
||||
|
||||
$ gpioinfo
|
||||
gpiochip0 - 54 lines:
