Since my 3D printer has print interruption issues, I thought of replacing the power supply or the stepper drivers. Since I found a good set of TMC 2208 for only $30 and I also wanted to test what sellers mean by "silent", I decided to upgrade the control board first. The hardware installation went fairly well but I ran into problems with the firmware update. I give lots of information in the video to help others but I am also seeking help to see what is wrong with my printer. There are a few things that are not clear for this Tarantula Pro printer from Homers, for example:

1. what is VREF for this control board with TMC 2208?
2. do we need to remove the third jumper?
3. where is the firmware file?
4. why is the SD card I received with my printer corrupted???
5. why the Homers website does not have firmware files???
etc...etc...etc...
