I'm really struggling getting firmware updated and Klipper installed. One thing I'm confused about is, i need to set menuconfig up for my Manta M8P v2, but then for the tool head I need to change it to the 2209 RP 2040.. If I change it from the Manta settings, to the tool head settings, is it breaking something with the Manta configuration?

Also, at what point is Klipper supposed to actually "work"? I'm on my second full attempt of getting this setup, the first time I got the Manta board completely updated and ready to go, the second time i did the tool head first because that seems to be what the formbot instructions want me to do? But at no point either time, was Klipper actually up and running either on the touch screen or in the IP address page. It just always says it can't connect to the mcu. Does everything need to be installed and completely set up before it shows Klipper is connected?

Thank you! I thought building it would be the frustrating part...

I got the formbot trident 300 kit, and while doing up the wiring I've run into the bed green/yellow (ground?) write is about two inches too short. I can't get the SSR any closer to the frame and there's no slack in the chain. Do I need to splice a tiny piece of wire on? I don't have any extra of this type so I'd need to buy some just for a single run. Or is this a Formbot issue that customer service should take care of?

Thank you!
