Raspberry Pi Zero W
Printer: MK3 (kit), updated to 3s and later to 3S+
Bought Raspberry Pi Zero W from the prusa store.
Installed it on my EINSY-board,
Changed RI-portsetting to ON in the Prusa Menu ... but nothing happens.
Rebooting manually but IP still 0.0.0.0
Seems the RaspB Pi is not booting.
I checked all connectors on the RaspB Pi Zero W
used two different sd-cards (SanDisk Ultra 16B ... and another one)
Wifi-settings are correct afaik (and i do set up my won wifi, routersettings so I should now),
latest OS-file: Prusalink-0.7.2.IMG.XZ
MK3S+ has latest firmware
Is there a way to test if the RB Pi Zero W is alive, is functioning ok, ...?

Plug a monitor in and perhaps a keyboard as well, and see it it is booting. Look for errors, check network config. The Pi Zero W's wifi isn't the best, so make sure you have a good signal where the printer is.
Also verify you have the Pi correctly connected to the printer and that your soldering is good. If you are uncertain, post some pictures.

Mmm, i don’t really know how i can connect a keyboard, but even more: a monitor, I’m afrais.
guess I’ll have to do some more homework.
as for the connections: the Raspberry Pie was bought from Prusa.
and I checked the connections. I do know a thing or two (or three 😉 about soldering).

For a monitor, you'll likely need a HDMI to mini-HDMI cable/adapter (and of course a monitor with HDMI input). For the keyboard, you will probably need a USB A to Micro USB adapter (or better a mini hub in case a mouse is needed as well).
I suspect the Pi will have to be removed from the printer in order to connect those. And then it'll need power (micro USB) as well.
