      Hi,

      I think I have read something about this somewhere but can not find it.

      I'm primarily looking for a way to send a signal to an RPI and triggering time lapse videos of a print. This could be triggered by some API, TCP, GPIO, serial and so on.

      The signals could be sent by a GCODE command or special configuration in firmware.

      Usages

      • Start stop recording video

      • Trigger for time lapse

      • Send state/info to home automation devices. This could be started print, stopped print, heaters on/off, failures and warnings, preferably by REST API

      • Recieve alarms from home automation. E.g. if fire alarm is triggered a print could be shut down.

          Maybe a gcode on layer change that trigger a photo from the rpi? You can take 1 for layer and then make the video.
          The PS_on pins can simulate the switch with a relay

            Thanks David,

            GPIO 1-4 on Duex5 should be possible to use for integration to RPI.

            Still think REST API could be useful as well 🙂

              The REST API is being considered.
