OctoPrint-BedLevelVisualizer VS OctoPrint-FirmwareUpdater

The first included marlin example worked for me:

I'm using a CR-10v3 with a BL-Touch v3.1 for 4.2.7 mainboard addon. Printer is using the Klipper firmware and as such, doesn't recognize commands like M420. Based on the example GCODE on the BedLevelVisualizer page, I'm using:

Install the Bed Visualizer plugin in Settings add the gcode from https://github.com/jneilliii/OctoPrint-BedLevelVisualizer/blob/master/wiki/gcode-examples.md for the Sidewinder X2 (you might want to modify the temperatures).

Depending on firmware, I just used what they suggested here: https://github.com/jneilliii/OctoPrint-BedLevelVisualizer/blob/master/wiki/gcode-examples.md

One final note for those looking around, Bed Visualizer has different examples of some G code found here: https://github.com/jneilliii/OctoPrint-BedLevelVisualizer/blob/master/wiki/gcode-examples.md which I'm looking at as well, but didn't want to add more complexity until I figure out what's going on.

I agree with the other commenter that the middle is too low. If you're using Octoprint at all, you can install the Bed Level Visualizer plugin to get a good visual.

After reading some more seems like you CAN do it, but I was either too scared or didn't know about it in Mid-2021

Firmware Updater Useful for flashing firmware to printer without having to use sd card. Frees up an sd card for me

I have 2 skr 1.4 turbo boards and before I switched to klipper I always updated my firmware using the firmware updater plug in for octoprint. On the github page it guided you through setup for that board family. https://plugins.octoprint.org/plugins/firmwareupdater/

I followed the install instructions from this link. I installed the python 3 compatible version of heat shrink.

Method 3 (Through Octopi) - I installed Anaconda to download the firmware updater for Octopi found here (https://plugins.octoprint.org/plugins/firmwareupdater/) but cannot install it through the command line. I get "python setup.py egg_info did not run successfully.". Tried upgrading pip to no avail.

if you have an Raspberry pi you can try https://plugins.octoprint.org/plugins/firmwareupdater/

I'm not sure if this OctoPrint plug-in works with the neptune 2 but it's worth a shot. https://plugins.octoprint.org/plugins/firmwareupdater/

You need a plugin called Firmware Updater.

Only if you already have Binary File Trainsfer setting enabled in Marlin. So you might be stuck since that's not normally enabled. But when it is enabled, it does work. I only update via octoprint anymore. https://github.com/OctoPrint/OctoPrint-FirmwareUpdater/blob/master/doc/marlinbft.md
