Pinout

Note
  • This page lists the pinout of the FLY-C8 mainboard after flashing Klipper firmware. The pin numbers are based on the mainboard schematic.
  • UART/CS is the driver communication pin: used as UART when using TMC2209, and as chip select CS when using SPI drivers such as TMC5160. The same pin is multiplexed.
  • EN is the enable pin, which is typically active-low (enable_pin with a ! prefix) in Klipper configuration.
  • DIAG is the driver diagnostic signal pin. When using sensorless homing, configure the corresponding diag_pin according to the table below.

Interactive Pin Hotspots​

The image below uses the FLY-C8 product image and the same hotspot data from the Klipper configuration generator. Use the device filters above to show only compatible connectors; click a hotspot to see compatible devices, common Klipper configuration sections, and notes. Use “Locate in pin table” in the detail panel to jump to and highlight the corresponding row below. Hover still shows the connector name and pin. Always verify the silkscreen and connector positions against the physical board and schematic.

Driver Pins​

FLY-C8 provides 8 driver ports:

Power Off Before Operation

Before starting, completely turn off the printer and disconnect the power supply. Do not plug or unplug wiring harnesses, adjust connector wiring order, or touch terminals while powered on.

DIAG and Sensorless Homing

Rows in the table where the corresponding driver DIAG is not - indicate that the driver's DIAG is connected to the corresponding input port on the main controller. When enabling sensorless homing, configure diag_pin directly according to the table. The corresponding input port will be occupied by the DIAG signal; do not connect a mechanical or optical limit switch at the same time. The RGB / PWM row is not a DIAG input and cannot be used for sensorless homing.

SPI Bus​

SPI drivers such as the TMC5160 use the mainboard's hardware SPI bus. Configure spi_bus: spi1a in the configuration; there is no need to configure MOSI/MISO/SCLK pins separately:

[tmc5160 stepper_x]
spi_bus: spi1a
cs_pin: Corresponding driver UART/CS pin

Supported Thermistor Types

The thermistor ports support NTC thermistors (100K) by default, with sensor_type recommended as Generic 3950; they also support 2-wire PT1000, configured by setting sensor_type to PT1000.

List of sensor_type options that can be directly connected internally by Klipper and their applicable scenarios: Thermistor Configuration Method

K-type thermocouples, 3-wire PT100, etc., require additional signal conditioning chips and cannot be connected directly to the thermistor ports.

EXP Interface​

EXP Configuration Reminder
  • The EXP headers are commonly used for displays such as the Mini12864 or for expanding peripherals.
  • If a pin is already occupied by SPI, UART, endstop, fan, or other functions, do not configure it again for the EXP peripheral.
