Lidar upgrade on K1

HI, i managed to find the creality upgrade kit for the k1/k1c so it uses the lidar system. the first layer check sometimes qworks correctly but it will not do the pressure advance check with the wavy lines and says the error message - current file does no support flow detection.

has anyone else done the upgrade and have any idea what it needs other than maybe a changed firmware? maybe the beds not long enough compared to the k1 max and its not setup for the k1? i know im probably wasting my time but i hate to give up on a project when im so close to success ><

I’d like to know how to enable AI LiDARr on the K1C as well. Even on Creality’s sales page when you compare the models it shows AI LiDAR for the K1C as an option and standard on the K1 Max. So, if it’s an option Creality, where is the kit and how do you install/enable it?

Alex, where did you find the lidar upgrade kit? I have a K1C and have been looall over for it.

use Lidar on the K1. To do this I had to keep an old software release (I think 1.3.22) and insert the same code that Creality Print uses into the slicer, into the start gcode (apparently useless code that starts with #). In fact it is read by my k1 and executed by enabling the lidar but only by launching the prints from the touch panel.
