So that I can switch off my 3D printer automatically after the printing process, I have installed a Sonoff relay so that it can interrupt the power supply to the entire 3D printer. The relay is then controlled via MQTT and switches the printer off automatically once the 3D print is complete.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The printer can also be switched on again in the same way. Initially, I used an appropriately configured button to do this. At some point, however, I came up with the idea that this switch-on command should also be possible with a mouse click.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Over time, this resulted in the flow below, which should also be usable for other actions. All you need to do is execute the batch file shown and the configured signal will be sent to your NodeRed instance, where you can then react to it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Safety instructions <\/span><\/h2>\r\n

I know the following notes are always kind of annoying and seem unnecessary. Unfortunately, many people who knew "better" have lost eyes, fingers or other things due to carelessness or injured themselves. Data loss is almost negligible in comparison, but even these can be really annoying. Therefore, please take five minutes to read the safety instructions. Because even the coolest project is not worth injury or other trouble.<\/span>
