Duet USB power and octoprint
-
I seem to have a problem with duet and octoprint pairing, that being that the duet wants to be powered off of the octoprint usb connection. Can I suppress the duet from trying to run off of the usb power? I am confused about the 5V internal jumper being of help here, so haven't tried that yet.

Might as well just say it. You don't need octoprint with duet it has its own very capable web interface. I used to use it before getting duet but why add another layer of kit/software/complexity when you don't need it?

The jumper won't help. The easiest way to prevent the Duet accepting power from the USB connector is to cut the +5V conductor in the USB cable.

Dc42, yeah, that's what I figured I had to do, thanks for Reply!
Djdemon, as for why, I would like to have octoprint control the power to machine and accessories, again I know I can do it from duet, but show me your timelapse configurations and webcam integration… Can you configure slic3r to also send Gcode files directly to printer? It also goes well with 2 other setups on marlin/OctoPrint I already run, and those features I really love.

Indeed beneath timelapse everything else is working
WebCam-Integration and also (in my case) direct Upload of GCodes from Simplify3D.
I've used Octoprint and Repetier-Server before too, but with my DuetWifi/DuetX5 and also my Radds (with an additional ESP286) i'm using nothing else as the WebInterface.
For the WebCam i'm using a Raspberry Pi 3 with MotionEyeOS, where i always save the Video-Stream and inside the WebIf i'm using the live-video Feed.
