I know NanoDLP supports the PiCam; however, what if I wanted to use a USB webcam?  Is this possible?  How about two USB webcams?  The use-case for two webcams would be having one monitor the part as it's coming out of the vat.  The second webcam would be positioned underneath the vat in such a way so as to monitor how the part is releasing from the PDMS or FEP film.

Thoughts?  Is it possible?

Unfortunately it seems you are using Raspbian Jessie, they have switched to systemd which I believe prevent such actions. Have you tried internal Terminate button? Or killing through terminal?

Yes, I am running Jessie and not Jessie Lite.  Is there another version I should be running so that I can regain that startup option?  If so, which?

Yes, the NanoDLP Terminate button does indeed kill the process and allow me to drop back to the terminal.  I was just hoping that I could somehow regain that 3 second "kill" option as the pi boots up.  To get around this, I've commented out the pertaining line in rc.local so that I have to manually start NanoDLP using run.sh.

Now here's a feature request:  Is there any chance you could, in your setup.sh file, give us the option to make the pi an Access Point?  The use case would be if I take my printer to a Makerfaire I would have to reconfigure my pi to connect to their network and find my ip address.  If I could turn my pi into an Access Point, I could connect to it via its own session ID and I wouldn't have to reconfigure anything.  Thoughts?

You have three seconds at the end of boot procedure to prevent nanodlp being execute by pressing any key on your keyboard.

This never has worked for me.  I watch and wait for the  "Press any char key in 3 seconds to abort nanoDLP and go to Terminal" notification and I never see it.  My display goes blank before this even shows up and no matter how many keys I press, I can't get NanoDLP to exit to the terminal before boothing.

What command to I have to issue from the terminal to kill the nanodlp process?  I would like to issue the command via ssh so that my display on the Pi shows back up when successfully shut down.

Secondly:  is there a way to not boot into NanoDLP when the system boots?
