WarningBoard-Specific Pins

The pin assignments above are examples. Verify against your MKS_SKIPR pinout diagram.

Next Steps

  1. Flash Klipper to your board
  2. Update MCU serial path
  3. Verify pin assignments for your board
  4. Run initial homing tests
  5. Calibrate extruder rotation_distance
  6. Run PROBE_CALIBRATE for Z offset
  7. Run SHAPER_CALIBRATE for input shaper
