Katapult Firmware Instructions
Name Description
Katapult was formerly named CanBoot; both may appear simultaneously in old tutorials or old firmware names.
Katapult is the bootloader used to boot and update Klipper:
- Katapult itself cannot be used as a Klipper MCU; after flashing, the Klipper firmware matching the hardware and communication method still needs to be written.
- The method for entering Katapult is subject to the current product page: boards with a
RESETbutton can enter by quickly double-pressingRESET; boards with only aBOOTbutton require fully powering off first, then holdingBOOTwhile connecting USB, and releasing it once the device is recognized. After entering, there is usually a status LED blinking. - CAN, RS232, and USB use mutually independent Katapult firmware and cannot be mixed by simply changing the file name or using them directly.
- CAN firmware must also select the correct bus rate; common rates are
500Kand1M.
