FF Adventurer 5m pro needs to push a button to switch it on.
I wanted to switch on from a remote computer, without making modifications on the printer itself.
So I found a solution in a solenoid to push the button.
The solenoid is triggered by a relay connected to a raspberry pi.
Parts:
Python script to trigger the solenoid:
`#! /usr/bin/python
import RPi.GPIO as GPIO
import RPi.GPIO module
import time
from time import sleep
GPIO.setwarnings(0)
GPIO.setmode(GPIO.BCM) # BCM for GPIO numbering
GPIO.setup(18, GPIO.OUT,initial=GPIO.LOW) # set initial value option (1 or 0)
# Switch Output
GPIO.output(18,GPIO.HIGH) # set an output port/pin value to 1/GPIO.HIGH/True
time.sleep(1)
GPIO.output(18,GPIO.LOW) # set an output port/pin value to 1/GPIO.HIGH/True
finally:
# Clean up on exit
GPIO.cleanup()
print ("Ende FF5MSwitch")
