Hi Peter, I received your email.
Any recommendations as to where the camera should be placed?
I ask because while I was researching other versions of monitoring software, they stated that the camera should be looking at the table at no more than a specified angle above the build surface.
Thank you for keeping me in the loop.

Thank you for your reply.
I understand my way of thinking is based on a very hypothetical possibility.
With working around machines and tools all my life it is just the way I think.
Thank you for the information, I will have to look into that relay system.
@Phaedrux
Thank you for your patience and the detail of your explanations.
Hello, everyone, thank you for the replies.
As my final entry what I have done is place M1 at the end of my End G-Code.
And that does exactly what I need it to do.
Again, thank you for all off your suggestions and help.
One last question. How do I mark this as solved?

You are correct. I see Active as powered on, even if the temperature equals zero.
When you look at the PanelDue the heater icon is red, again showing me that the heater is powered on.
What do I do when I start using dual print heads? If T-1 only deselects the current head then the other head will stay in standby mode. And if it has a set temperature it will stay hot.
I don't understand why there is not an easy way to turn the heater power off. Not just set the temp to zero. To me this is a safety hazard. Hypothetical if this was a manufacturing setting there is no way a company would allow the heater to stay energized. All it would take is one mistake and somebody could get burns.
Again thank you for you help.
@phaedrux
So does that mean I need T-0 and T-1?
Thank you.

Hello, so I placed the following M568 codes in Cura and unfortunately it made no difference.
;End G-Code
M568 P0 A0
M568 P1 A0
;Retract the filament
G92 E1
G1 E-1 F300
G28 X0 Y0
M84
I know you state that it makes no difference but I personally dislike the idea of the heater being active.
So if you have any other ideas I would like to hear them.
Maybe I should also contact Modix support and see what they say.
Thank you.
@phaedrux
I added the M568 lines to the End G-Code and I will run a test print.
I really appreciate your help.
@phaedrux
You are correct I am getting confused.
When working through the Web Controller the heater has three settings.
Off, Active, and Standby. Before updating to 3.3 when a print was finished the heater would be turned off.
If just setting the temperature to zero turns off the heater why have the option to turn the heater off?
That is why I am confused.
Thank you.
@phaedrux
In Cura I have the following:
M104 S0
M140 S0
:Retract The Filament
G92 E1
G1 E-1 F300
G28 X0 Y0
M84
I do understand the idea that if the temperature is set to zero the heater is basically off. But like I mentioned in two places it states that the heater is still considered "Active".
So if I understand, if I put T-0 and T-1 in the "End G-Code that will deactivate the heaters?
Or is it better to say:
M568 P0 A0
M568 P1 A0
I am not worried about what the active temperature reads as long as the heaters are deactivated.
Thank you again for all of your help.
@phaedrux
Thank you for the reply.
According to Duet Web Control and on the touch panel the heater is still active. Somehow the temperature setting has been set to zero.
I want the heater to be turned off.
Sorry I should have better explained that.
