I did keep connecting with 115200 but only after i changed the USB port.... idk if it was stacking with the dongle i was using on the lower plug for the keybobard/mouse set but this was enough.

To avoid this connection issues, you need to disconnect the printer before turning the printer off.
I have my OctoPrint running now and also the Pi controlling the power of the printer and also some lights.
When I want to turn the printer off I disconnect it first gracefully, so that the /dev/tty* resource is released.
It never fails this way.
I also added a few menu items to OctoPrint to control the Pi.

Awesome!!!
Can you expand on the lights system?
How did you handle this? Thru GPIO I assume, but then?
Thanks!
Hi Joao,
How did you get the print on/off working? Would love some details!
Cheers,
Clayton
Of course, im interested in that too ;)
And I'm also wondering, how can I get onto the raspberry pi command line again so i can disable certain things? i enabled the GUI "by default on bootup" and I'm sure that takes more pi resources even if i am not using it at all...
You can SSH to the Pi. With Windows you can use Putty and on Mac you can use the terminal.
To SSH you can connect using:
ssh octopi.local/ -l pi
I dont think i enabled ssh access unfortunately. i guess i'll just start over annd rewrite the image again...
Its enabled on install, so you wont need to start over to enable it.
Thanks! I'll double check!
Followed the links, read the instructions. I can access my OctoPi over the web via the default port 5000. But I can't get to the webcam to appear. I just see the "broken image/plugin" icon.
Most instructions state that OctoPi is "already set up, don't touch it." I disagree ... :)
Help?
