MK3 Octoprint "g-code scripts"

Hi,

I recently added the RPI Zero w to my MK3, and installed OctoPrint according to the official guide.
It works well, but there is a few things i am missing in OctoPrint, form the MK3 controller menu.

Does anyone know the GCODE required (if possible) for the following functionalities:

Pause Print
Resume Print
Stop Print

Unload filament
Load filament

Toggle Stealth mode

I know Pause and Stop are in OctoPrint, but it does not move the head as on the controller..

I might be missing something obvious, if so please let me know! 😀

Thanks for any input!

the benefit to that is so you can retake control of the printer immediately, but regardless you can create scripts to do whatever you want after triggering a pause or cancel

install the "terminal commands" plugin, its very handy.

this should get you started: http://marlinfw.org/meta/gcode/

m701/702 are load and unload iirc, m600 will do a swap. afaik the prusa-specific things like stealth mode can't be triggered through gcode

Thanks for the answer, and codes!
I see the benefit of taking control, maybe i will create a "secondary" pause and stop button that mimics the Controller actions!

Thought it might be the case for stealth mode, would have been awesome to be able to "turn down the volume" from bed at night tho 🙂

Do you know of a place where i can find the exact Pause and Stop code used on the MK3?
