VAOC Camera Error while connecting
SSH into your pi and run
ls /dev/v4l/by-id
this will give you the ID of your webcam AND the VAOC camera
you will need them both
then create 2 webcams in the settings.
name the FIRST VAOC or what ever you like but it VAOC had to be first. and use the default stream address
second one name whatever you want but chagne the stream address
/webcam2/?action=stream ( I sued port 8081 so /webcam2/ ( look in crowsnest.cfg it has a list at the top!

VAOC Camera Error while connecting
I just tried the same thing and lost my VAOC camera. had to wipe out the added camera to get it back. ><
To get the VAOC camera back i had to delete the webcam all together from the setting window and reboot

VAOC safe_z value
If anyone else has this issue check you ratos-variables.cfg something i did had the z distance at 149! changed that to a much smaller number and now working properly 🤷

Z not homing properly/ Beacon issue
Ok I feel stupid, I am deleting the rest of my messages and putting the answer here. In thing video you can see the tool0 start to move then hear stepper wine.. The Silicone pad was to tight and the motor current is so low for that homing travel move that it was getting stuck 🤦🤦🤦 any other move must be at a higher current cause homing is the ONLY issue. I only adjusted it a tiny amount and it works fine now. 🤦🤦
