[Feature Request] add an user definable device name

Open NAPCAL opened this issue 3 years ago • 2 comments

Add a user-definable device name that will be provided with the CAN bus ID when running flash_can.py -q Since the direction for using the CAN bus will head toward multiple print heads, this will help debug and update these devices.

Example output pi@Fluidd:~ $ python3 /home/pi/CanBoot/scripts/flash_can.py -q Resetting all bootloader node IDs... Checking for canboot nodes... Detected UUID: 93499ef89c38, Application: Klipper, Device: Octopus Pro Detected UUID: a0c90a3740c9, Application: Klipper, Device: Hermit Crab 1 Detected UUID: a0c90a3740d3, Application: Klipper, Device: Hermit Crab 2 Detected UUID: a0c90a3740f9, Application: Klipper, Device: Hermit Crab 3 Query Complete

I recently looked into this myself. It seems klipper itself handles the naming of the device like that. So it'd be something that needs integration on both sides.

Klipper doesn't name the device. I am talking about when the MCU responds to the Katapult query command (-q).
