Just got my Voron up and running, was assembled by someone else. I updated Klipper and other software. Now I have an error "Relative_Reference_Index" "Bed Mesh" on the screen. How do I connect to the printer to edit the Klipper config? I know its IP address on my network.
#How do I gain access to my printer/Klipper from my desktop to fix a config issue.

Just got my Voron up and running, was assembled by someone else. I updated Klipp...
How are you even seeing the error?
Just via klipperscreen?
long quail
When it starts up it goes to the at screen. I still have a menu to restart, system etc...
light island
So you don't have it connected on your network at all?
How are you even getting gcode files onto it then?
long quail
It is connected to my home network yes I have its IP address
light island
(I promise I'm not just trying to be difficult, just making sure I understand the situation)
So open a Web browser, and punch in that ip
long quail
I did put any Gcode onto it I used the system update screen to update the files like Klipper, Mainsail etc...
It says it connot connect
does it have to be Connected via eithernet cable or will the wireless work?
This is new to me I amd used to using a USB to print files etc...
light island
It says it connot connect
Like just the actual Web browser error? Or something from the printer?
long quail
Klipper erro on the printer screen states "Relative_reference_index" Web Mesh Fix this error and restart. From what I read online this error is because of a recent update to Klipper. It has been suggested to comment out this line in the config. I dont know how to conenct to printer to fix this. What software and I assume by its network IP address
long quail
Ok let me changeits Router connection and get back to you
light island
Because almost all of your printer management on a klipper printer is done through a Web browser
(There are a couple of exceptions involving firmware flashing, but I don't think any of them apply to this conversation)
long quail
ok got it communicating through my web browser
light island
Good
So you can edit your config from the "machine" tab
Bottom button on the left
long quail
light island
Yep
long quail
Which file do I edit?
light island
In this context? Probably printer.cfg
long quail
wo so I can edit right in the browser window? lol
long quail
So I found Bed mesh.....what do I change it to? One person sadi to "Comment it out"
light island
One person is an asshole
long quail
lol
light island
I mean, they're half right. You do need to remove the old line
But you also need to REPLACE it

[bed_mesh]
speed: 300
horizontal_move_z: 10
mesh_min: 40, 40
mesh_max: 310,310
fade_start: 0.6
fade_end: 10.0
probe_count: 7,7
algorithm: bicubic
relative_reference_index: 24
light island
Rri has been replaced by a new setting called "zero_reference_position "
For you, it'll probably be "zero_reference_position: 175,175"
Basically instead of using a weird index system, they've moved to just taking a set of coordinates
Hence the new setting
long quail
What is the 175,175 and it thats coordinates how do you know that works for my bed mesh? sorry I want to to understand the command
light island
It's the middle of the bed
I know from your mesh config that you have a 350
And it's convention to use center
long quail
understood
light island
(And your old rri was center too: 24 being the midpoint of a 7x7 mesh)
long quail
ok let me restart the printer and get back to you.
ok good all is working now. Thank you for taking time and being patient with me. I am technical but dont claim to be an engineer. More of tech artist/artist for Microsoft 🙂 Can I add you as a friend on Discord? I will try not to bother you too muchwith questions.
light island
I don't take a lot of friend requests. I do answer pings here most of the time though
long quail
No worries, thank you. Waiting on my filament to start printing/testing. My old Taz 5's are old tech compared to this machine. Lots to learn a head of me.
