Tip
  • ERCF V2 comes pre-flashed with Katapult firmware for CAN connection at a rate of 1M
  • The Katapult firmware for ERCF V2 CAN connection is available in 500K and 1M rates; you can flash it yourself if needed
  • Katapult Firmware Flashing

Firmware Flashing Instructions

  • ERCF V2 can connect to the host via RS232, CAN, or USB
  • RS232 and CAN require an XT30(2+2)-F for connection
  • Below is the XT30(2+2)-F data cable style

Notice
  • Mainboard firmware flashing requires using Katapult to flash Klipper
  • If you are certain that Katapult has already been flashed to the mainboard, there is no need to perform the Katapult firmware flashing at the end

Select Firmware Type​

Please confirm the connection method first
  • When a CAN toolboard is needed: select CAN firmware.
  • When RS232 connection is needed: select RS232 Firmware.
  • When USB direct connection is needed without using a CAN toolboard: select USB firmware.
  • Only one of the three firmware types can be selected; do not flash them simultaneously.

Katapult Firmware Explanation​

名称说明

Katapult 原名 CanBoot,两者在旧教程或旧固件名称中可能同时出现。

Katapult 是用于引导和更新 Klipper 的 Bootloader:

  • Katapult 本身不能作为 Klipper MCU 使用,烧录后仍需写入与硬件和通信方式匹配的 Klipper 固件。
  • 支持的工具板可以通过快速双击 RESET 按键进入 Katapult;进入后通常会有状态灯闪烁。
  • CAN、RS232 和 USB 使用相互独立的 Katapult 固件,不能只修改文件名或直接混用。
  • CAN 固件还必须选择正确的总线速率,常见速率为 500K 和 1M。
