DuetLapse3

@osterac Thanks. What firmware version are you on? The version of DeutLapse3 that I'm trying to set up for 3.5.4 has the M291 deprecated. But I can see what you did so I will try to adapt it.

I have been "offline" for about 6 months and am just now restarting having rebuilt my system.For SBC the 3.5 version in github is the one you should be using. I'll push out a 3.6 version shortly (I don't think there will be any changes - but ...)
There was one broken link in the documentation which I just fixed. This is likely the main info you are missing
https://github.com/stuartofmt/DuetLapse3/blob/main/Documents/plugin installation guide.mdThe software grew in capability over time - so its important to start of simply and not be overwhelmed by too many options. See the examples here (they are for standalone but the config file examples are the same for the plugin version)
https://github.com/stuartofmt/DuetLapse3/blob/main/Documents/DuetLapse3 Useage Examples.mdThe example and the fixed link should get you started. When testing - make sure you include
-verboseso that errors and warnings can be seen.Once you have it basically configured and can use the plugin UI - you can then start tweaking configurations and doing "fancy stuff" with gcodes.
Let me know if you get stuck.

@stuartofmt thank you! That was the missing information I needed. I have it installed and running. Now to test some gcode…

@stuartofmt Hmm, not sure if this is right but it pauses 2.7 seconds on every layer which is not going to work for me as it will ruin many prints. Got several msgqueue full pop-ups. After the print there are no images in /opt/dsf/sd/DuetLapse3/. The plug-in said deactivated, though it was working when I started. I did capture manually and the camera works. Idea where to debug?

@jltx
Lets have a look at your config file.
Also - to be clear, you are running 3.5.4 SBC on Bookworm? Buster?
Also - since there are no images being collected - there is something wrong - so please include a log file that was created with-verbose.The images are not created in that directory. See the info tab for the directory location. You should also be able to see them in the files tab.
Its best to get basic operation working correctly before adding pauses and such.

@stuartofmt I will have to try again since I just switched to 3.6. I was on 3.5.4 bookworm. I started getting odd system delays after I bumped the swap file up to 4G. So I need to investigate that first.
-
@jltx I would start with the Duet pi image without making changes to swap etc.

As I indicated above - the 3.6 version is not yet available. It looks like there was a change or two to the plugin framework since 3.5 - so I have to track that down.
The 3.5 version will not install on a 3.6.0-beta.4 release. If you think it has installed - then something is wrong or you are not using the plugin installation method from DWC.The documentation has several cautions about the use of the pause capability. It has the ability to set delays and can also interact poorly with the default pause capability.
I strongly recommend you get a basic config working first.When you report back - with the config file and logfile info I requested above. That way we can see what is going on.
