Description

I am running Raspberry Pi OS Debian Bullseye, Klipper, KlipperScreen, Mainsail, and Moonraker.

The CAN bus does not connect to my Octopus or Hermit Crab Can edition. This is not an issue when using a Raspberry Pi 4 B and a CAN Hat with the same Config files. I have CANH/CANL connected to the USB D+/- connections from the USB-C port on the Raspberry Pad 5 with the dip switch for CAN on the on position and the switch for the CAN connection in the correct position as per the manual.

Research direction

Start with the Raspberry Pad 5 manual and the reported CAN switch positions, then compare the Pad 5 wiring and configuration with the working Raspberry Pi 4 B and CAN HAT setup. Check the connection to the Octopus and Hermit Crab CAN edition; done means the CAN bus connects from the Pad 5.
