Importing Config into rrf config tool
-
I'm having trouble importing my config.json file into the reprapfirmware tool. Everytime I do it none of the settings save and just have the default values.
-
@Jsterling Please post your config.json file. Is it this config tool you are trying to import it into?

@droftarts Yes it is. Here is the config.json file config.json

@Jsterling It works for me! Maybe it's a browser issue. What browser are you using?
There seems to be an error on the heaters page, the hot end thermistor isn't set correctly:
Also, you're using RRF 1.21? That's really very old now.

@droftarts I'm using google chrome. The printer is a printer that I've been trying to get working so I don't know the last time it had been used or updated
-
@Jsterling I just realized that my .json file didn't update when the config updated. So the .json file is older. would there be any way to make a new .json file from the updated config?

@Jsterling Unfortunately, you can't import a config.g file into the config tool. You can import the json and update it, using the config.g as a guide.
If you're going to that trouble, I'd suggest updating to the latest firmware release, RRF 3.4.6. There are additional steps to update from firmware 1.21 to the current release; see https://docs.duet3d.com/User_manual/RepRapFirmware/Updating_firmware
Then update the config to the latest version as well. Import the existing json into the config tool (if you can?), then select '3.3 or later (stable)' under Firmware version. It should update the config for the latest firmware. Go through and check it, and use the old config.g to check it (though it will look quite a bit different).
If you have any problems, let me know, and I'll output an updated config json for you. If you post your old config.g, that might help too.

@droftarts Okay. To clarify I already updated the firmware I was just looking to update the config.g I have to 3.4.6. I'll work on updating the Json but i'll attatch the config here.config.g
-
@Jsterling There's also a new version of the config tool coming, if you want to try it out: https://configtool.reprapfirmware.org/next/
However, you won't be able to load the old config.json file into it.
