So you just need to know. It does not change much. * Octo-Pi has been installed, * created users * some Octo Admin's * a LMN common user * enabled Auto login by local network * any internal 10.1.10.0/24 will auto login with access. * Remote or outside will be view only, unless with user/pw. * enabled auto connect * Changed Web Page Host name to "LMN MakerFarm i3 Prues" * Limited haproxy to maxconn of 2. only lets two web pages, as not to overload Pi. * USB camera has been ordered. * Currently is trying Pi-Cam, very slow. * Printer setup modified for * temperatures * beginning and ending Gcode scripts * auto bed leveling code * OctoPrint has been updated from 1.2.4 to 1.2.5(stable) using the interface * Added the following plugins * Custom Control Editor * System Command Editor * Editor Collection * EEPROM Marlin Editor * Print History * STL Viewer * Added stub commands to control the lighting * Currently using M42 P4 S255 / M42 P4 S0 * We still need a relay hooked up to this pin to drive a light. * Still needs done: * 3D Print an enclosure for the pi * currently using a stock case. But a better custom case to attach to MakerFarm is desired. * Need to investigate slowing down the FPS. Too much for Pi FFMPEG * More ... * Write instructions on how to connect and print * Install and test Cura profiles so STL's can be sliced on the machine * Test Raspberry Pi B for slicing - may be a problem for larger or complicated parts * If too slow, slice before uploading or consider Raspberry Pi2 * Install Pi camera on machine which might include 3d printing an enclosure for the camera. * Currently Duct tape and Wire is holding camera. * Add LED/Lamp for Camera * Drive it from Ramps either: * Using an M42 G-code and the octoprint command plug in creating a couple buttons should be easy * http://neverstopbuilding.com/bed-lighting * http://plugins.octoprint.org/plugins/customControl/ * Other ideas include: * in parallel to fans * in parallel to Motors being energized * Consider all possible scenarios for overheating or loss of control * Address the issue of the PSU load which is not connected well and also may overheat nearby objects * A backup of the SD card should be done, and some sort of regular backup system should be in place so if something is ever broken we have a place in time to restore to. * Considerations: * LDAP authentication or equivalent for future https://github.com/foosel/OctoPrint/issues/594
