Hi,

long time has passed and Im going to check if my Fabscan works right now.

Regarding https://fabscanpi-server.readthedocs.io/en/latest/software_configuration.html#scanner-configuration-file the config-file doesnt exist. Where has it gone?

Please help. I’m running out of hair to rip out.

So, let me preface by saying I’m a total newb. I just started playing with Pi’s a few months ago, as well as 3d sculpting and 3d printing. I want to make little figures out of clay, scan them, clean them up in 3d space, and print them. This is the goal. The Pi scanner seemed perfect as it touched on areas I had been working on, so, I ordered a kit.

I bought the Pi kit from Wetterott. The first time I soldered the connector on the wrong side, so, deep breath, got another hat (duh). Super careful to soldier everything in the right place. Power source had to be switched out (even with a converter it didn’t seem to work), but the Pi is powering up through the hat, so that seems to be ok (also never soldiered before...learning all kinds of new things here).

Here are the problems I seem to be having:

1) I can’t get the Pi to connect to wireless. Yes, I know, I edited the wpa supplicant file, it still won’t connect (it is a hotspot from my phone, internet is spotty here). Do I even need an internet connection? FAQ says no, and I’m connected directly to a monitor. How do I connect and operate the fabscan if im directly connected? I can’t find that information anywhere.

2) i decided to check the log. This is what I got:

INFO - fabscan.server.FSScanServer : FabScanPi-Server 0.9.2
DEBUG - fabscan.scanner.interfaces : Scanner type is : laserscanner
DEBUG - fabscan.scanner.laserscanner.driver.FSSerial : Port in Config found

ERROR - fabscan.scanner.laserscanner.driver.FSSerial : Communication error on port /dev/ttyAMA0 try other flashing baudrate than 115200. Maybe corrupted bootloader.
ERROR - fabscan.scanner.laserscanner.driver.FSSerial : Fatal FabScanPi HAT or compatible connection error....’NoneType’ object has no attribute
’isOpen’
INFO - fabscan.server.FSScanServer: FabScan Server Exit. Bye!

Well, at least it was polite enough to say bye.

The first thing I should ask is how do I change the baudrate?

I read on the forums, and there’s a way to re-flash the bootloader. That looks absolutely terrifying, I’m not sure I can comfortably pull that off. and quite frankly, if it’s not due to anything that I did, I don’t see why I should have to do that. That was the point of buying a kit in the first place, put it together plug it in and off we go, right?

I appreciate you all putting up with my lack of knowledge. I suppose you have to start somewhere.

Any help would be very much appreciated.

Thanks, best, stay safe.
