You can always download precompiled firmware, but building it yourself can be a good way to stay in control of the process.

cloud_download Download Firmware

You might want to manually build the firmware for your SKR Pico rather than download the precompiled firmware. This guide will walk you through the process.

Get up-to-date

SSH into the Raspberry Pi and run the following commands:

sudo apt update
sudo apt upgrade

Build firmware

We’re going to build the firmware on the Raspberry Pi, and then flash it to the SKR Pico.

cd klipper
git pull
make menuconfig
make
  1. Select Enable extra low-level configuration options
  2. Select Raspberry Pi RP2040
  3. Select Serial (on UART0 GPIO1/GPIO0)

Flash the SKR Pico

  1. Using your computer, download the klipper.uf2 file from the klipper/out directory to your computer.
  2. Apply the jumper to the BOOT pins on the SKR Pico (located in the center, under the TE in BIGTREETECH).
  3. Hold down the BOOT button on the SKR Pico and connect the SKR Pico to your computer over USB-C.
