This guide will walk you through common firmware configurations for your 3D printers. Leviathan boards ship out already flashed with USB firmware. Run ls /dev/serial/by-id/* to confirn you have a klipper ID. If you need to update firmware or use other ways of connection, there are two major steps covered in this guide that will need to be completed in order: Flashing the Leviatan with the Katapult Bootloader The USB interface should be used for the Katapult bootloader for both USB or CAN Klipper configuration. The UART interface should be used for the Katapult bootloader for UART Klipper configuration. Flashing the Leviatan with the Klipper Firmware USB interface is the recommended configuration for most situations. CAN interface is supported, if you are using CANBus UART interface can be used when USB ports aren't available such as with Raspberry Pi Zero 2W. This are the recommended configurations however Leviathan is very flexible, so not all options are covered by this guide.

Brass inserts are a popular way to add strong and reliable threaded holes to 3D printed parts. These brass inserts are typically installed using a soldering iron. For beginners, installing these parts can be a nerve-wracking experience, as a bad install will ruin a part that took hours to print. Inspired by this hackaday guide , LDO developed the Heatset Insert Tool to make the process of installing a brass insert a simple (and dare we say, fun) experience.
