Tip
  • SB2040 PRO V3 comes pre-flashed with Katapult firmware for CAN connection at a rate of 1M
  • SB2040 PRO V3 Katapult firmware for CAN connection is available in 500K and 1M rates; you can flash it yourself if needed
  • Katapult Firmware Flashing

Firmware Flashing Instructions

  • SB2040 PRO V3 can connect to the host via RS232 or CAN
  • RS232 and CAN require XT30(2+2)-F for connection
  • Below is the XT30(2+2)-F data cable style

Notice
  • CAN firmware flashing requires flashing Klipper via Katapult (RS232 firmware is flashed directly via USB, no Katapult needed)
  • If you confirm the mainboard already has Katapult flashed, there is no need to flash the Katapult firmware in the final section
  • You can quickly press reset twice and check if an LED on the mainboard starts blinking; if so, it means the mainboard has entered Katapult firmware

Select Firmware Type​

Please confirm the connection method first.
  • If you need a CAN toolboard: choose CAN firmware.
  • If you need an RS232 connection: choose RS232 firmware.
  • Only one of the two firmware types can be selected; do not flash both simultaneously.

Katapult Firmware Notes​

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。
