## Uploading a Program
|
||||
1) Build Klipper with CAN support and with the "8KiB" bootloader setting enabled.
|
||||
2) Enter the bootloader. This may be accomplished through "double tapping" the
|
||||
Reset button. The second reset should be within 1.5 seconds of the first.
|

If the Status LED is set it will blink every second when the device has
|

entered the bootloader. A future patch to Klipper should make it possible
|

for `flash_can.py` to direct the device to enter the bootloader.
|
||||
## Uploading Klipper
|
||||
1) Make sure the `klipper` service stopped.
|
||||
2) Build Klipper with CAN support and with the "8KiB" bootloader setting enabled.
|
||||
3) Enter the bootloader. This will occur automatically if no program is detected.
|
||||
If you built CanBoot with an alternative method of entry you may use that.
|
||||
If upgrading from a currently flashed version of Klipper the `flash_can.py`
|
||||
script will command the device to enter the bootloader (currently for CAN
|
||||
devices only).
|
||||
3) Run the flash script:
|
||||
For CAN Devices:
|
||||
```
|
||||
cd ~/CanBoot

python3 flash_can.py -i can0 -f ~/klipper/out/klipper.bin -u <uuid>

For USB/UART devices:

Before flashing, make sure pyserial is installed. This step only needs to

flash. The `<baud_rate>` is only necessary for UART devices, and defaults
