Sovol sv08 firmware V2.4.7

I updated to the new firmware V2.4.7 and now my 5 inch HDMI Display is up side down I’m new at Klipper all my other printers are Duet3D controlled have no clue how to fix it.

I seen other post says to ssh your printer what is ssh and how to do it.

I don’t know why Sovol did this and not fixed it for us old farts.

Hi,

Install putty on your pc.

Find the IP address of your printer.

Launch putty using the IP address found, login sovol, pwd sovol.

After, I hope you know the debian command.

Hidden inside your SV08 is a “computer” running Linux. It is built on the same circuit board as the MCU that actually runs the heaters and motors that make things happen.

When you plug a display into the HDMI port Linux uses it as a display (monitor). Unfortunately Linux, without a full GUI, handles display rotation by editing a configuration file from the command line. SSH is a remote access protocol that allows you to interact with the OS from another computer.

Several pieces of software run under Linux to make everything work. As configured your printer runs “KlipperScreen” as a full screen application with no way to easy way to close it.

There are How To videos on YouTube

Where did you get 2.4.7? The wiki points to a file in Google Drive that says it hasn’t been changed since December 2024. @rodek275

here is the link

You are saying that this link is 2.4.7 even though the file is dated December of 2024? What version of klipper did you have after upgrading to this file?

I just confirmed that the file currently linked from the wiki is the same file I used back in March, it isn’t new. This is the file that bright me to 2.4.6.

So, where is 2.4.7?

Since Sovol says that this is the latest release, it probably means that version 2.4.7 is not available.

If 2.4.7 doesn’t exist then they shouldn’t say it is a link to 2.4.7 and say there is a change log for 2.4.7.

Hello @sovol3d

Could you please correct your wiki using the correct terms for the SV08 firmware release?

Thanks

I followed the Video and now the screen (sovol screen if it’s relevant) isn’t turning on at all… its just got the start-up Sovol logo and the loanding spinning icon… What can i do?

Did you try to reflash motherboard and screen firmwares using the stock firmwares?

How do i do that… New to Klipper

Like that:

Can you still get in with ssh?

Yeah Can still get in using PuTTY, and via Web interface

you could try and undo the changes you made

Note: WinSCP might be a better tool than Putty. It is like windows file explorer for the remote system and has a built in editor.

It actually is a SSH client so the connection process is the same as putty.

You’re right but so much heavier.

Sovol had my download MobaXterm when I was having troubles, so it’s all I’ve used.

I didn’t know that.

That sounds good to me.
