Sjefferson99: Add temporarily closed documentation.

=== Overview ===
SMIB is the So Make It Bot.

The github repo has further technical information and an issue tracker for bugs and ideas: https://github.com/somakeit/smib

SMIB is a slack bot on the [https://app.slack.com/client/T0K0ACWMB/D06UTJ334F5 So Make It slack instance] which will allow users to interact with SMIB through slack channels and commands.

At present SMIB manages space state updates and reporting and the current space state can be seen by opening the SMIB bot page on slack.

SMIB also posts open or closed messages in the space-open-announce channel.

=== SMIBHID ===
SMIBHID is the So Make It Bot Human Interface Device, it's buttons by the doors for simply reporting the space open/closed state with the push of a button.
[[File:Smibhid front door.jpg|thumb|Front door SMIBHID]]
[[File:Smibhid corridor door.jpg|thumb|Corridor door SMIBHID.]]

==== Usage ====

===== Open Close =====
Whenever you open the space and will be around for long enough to other non-keyholder members to come down and also use the space, press the space open button to let them know.

If you are locking the space up as the last member out the door, press the space closed button to let other members know that they will not be able to access the space without a key.

Pressing the space closed button when the space is already closed will do nothing. If you press the space open button while the space is already open it will allow you to add a new message for open for X hours as below.

===== Open for X hours =====
If you know you will be around for an approximate number of hours, when opening the space, repeatedly press the space open button to cycle through from 0-9 hours to announce the space open for.

If you just press once it will show 0 hours, equally if you increment from 9 hours you will return to 0 hours. 0 hours will simply state space open with no specific hours in the slack channel.

==== Temporarily closed ====
If you are heading out for a short period of time, to the co op for example and are the last keyholder and need to lock up, but will be back soon, you can easily mark the space temporarily closed for X minutes.

Similar to the Open for X hours, when the space is open, press the space closed button to show 0 minutes, and then continue to press to cycle through increment of 10 minutes, up to an hour, where it then loops back to 0. Submitting with 0 minutes means space permanently closed as normal. This means you can close the space as normal by simply pressing once and waiting for the timeout.

==== Reset button ====
Each SMIBHID has a reset button you can press to reset the device ad hopefully brig it back to life if it is not correctly showing space state or responding to input.

==== Connection error ====
If the green and red lights are both flashing and/or the display shows connectivity or space state update errors, then there is likely an issue with the SMIB server hosted on smib-pi in the vending machine. These issues should be raised with the Code or IT teams in slack.

==== API and web interface ====
SMIBHIB now features a web interface and API for more in depth information and control. See the [https://github.com/somakeit/smibhid SMIBHID repository] for more information.

==== Clean room air filter ====
The [[Corsi-Rosenthal air filter|air filter]] in the clean room is powered by a SMIBHID taking space state from SMIB and switching the fans on when the space is open when switched to auto mode.

It also contains a number of sensors for monitoring the air quality in the space which are accessible in slack using the /howfresh slash command, details below.

==== How fresh? ====
SMIBHID-Fan has BME280 and SCD30 sensor modules connected, which provide the following data:

* BME280
** Temperature
** Humidity
** Air pressure
* SCD30
** Temperature
** Humidity
** CO2

It is possible to query the current values from these sensors in slack by issuing the /howfresh slack command, which will shortly return the live values in the channel you issue the command from.

If you want to make a query that is shown publicly, issue the command in a channel such as general.

If you want to query the data without posting this to a public channel, you can ask the SMIB bot directly, by typing /howfresh in the chat tab of the SMIB bot by opening the bot from the left hand slack menu and opening the messages tab on the SMIB bot page.

'''This Wiki is for SoMakeIt space and equipment configuration information & detail only. Any H&S rules, policies and process, and workshop tool risk assessments & inductions are detailed on the main site on the [https://somakeit.org.uk/inductions-and-processes/ Induction Website Pages] so it is clear what requires an induction and what does not.'''

'''The old wiki and content has been archived at https://old-wiki.somakeit.org.uk and may contain some information that has not yet been added to this page.'''

Anyone can and should make edits and improvements to the wiki to share information and keep articles up to date. Please update where items are missing or have errors, a full changelog is kept so it's easy to back out errors or otherwise track changes.

It is better to get some basic and unformatted information in and tidy up later than have no information at all.

Octoprint and Remote Printing

2025-06-05T13:27:15Z

Sjefferson99: Add authentik set up link for admins.

Octoprint is a web-based print manager that runs from a connected Raspberry pi. Currently all of the Taz 6's have an associated pi and webcam.

Connecting to an octopi (Octoprint on a pi) is as simple as pointing a web browser to the appropriate octopi instance. usually in the form of https://taz1 (replacing the 1 for the number of the Taz as written on the sign above the printer you want to use e.g. taz2, taz3, etc.)

==Upload to Octoprint==
open a web browser and navigate to http://taz1 (or whichever octopi is on your printer) You may need to log in to upload, in which case use the same user and password as the space WiFi, but usually you should be auto logged in.

[[File:Octo1.png|link=Special:FilePath/Octo1.png]]

Once logged in, check that the attached printer is switched on and click "Connect" Upload your .gcode file, select it from the file list and once the printer status is happy, click print.

If the printer does not connect, ensure the correct settings are configured:

Serial port: /dev/ttyAcM0

Baud rate: 250000

You can monitor and stop/start the print from the interface and if a webcam is attached, take progress pics

== Remote Printing ==
It is possible to log to the Octopi sever remotely via https://auth.somakeit.org.uk. Post a message in the it-web slack channel if you need an account setting up and then refer to [[Setting up your access login (Authentik)]] to complete the process.

IT admins can follow this guide to create a new Authentik account: [[IT admin:Onboard new Authentik user]]

'''Please refer to the 3D printing Risk Assessment on the SoMakeIt [https://somakeit.org.uk/3d-printing/ Member Induction Pages.]'''

We have several 3D Printers of various size and capability in the space that you can use listed in [[3D Printers Models|Printers]]. If you would like to use a printer, come by the space when it's open and ask if a printer is available and if someone can show you how. If you want to be assured of printer availability and assistance please check [http://slack.somakeit.org.uk/ Slack] channel (#3D-PUG).

A volunteer will be able to suggest the best printer to use for your thing and how to complete the process of printing it. [[Printing with Cura]] is a good place to start.

== Filament storage ==
'''Please ensure all filament is [[3D printer filament storage|kept in plastic bags]] with a desiccant sachet when not in use as filament is highly hygroscopic. If filament is performing poorly due to moisture, you can use the [[3D printer filament storage|filament dryer]].'''

==Printers Overview==
SoMakeIt has [[3D Printers Models|various 3D printers]] in various states of repair and difficulty level to use. In approximate difficulty order (from least to most) they are

'''FDM Printers''' (Fused Deposition Modelling - using strands of plastic filament such as PLA or ABS - the most common type of 3D printing)
# <s>Lulzbot minis - Small (150x150) build area but easy to use. Can be driven with a laptop running [[Printing with Cura|Cura]] or via [[Octoprint and OctoEverywhere|Octoprint]]. One is fully functional and available for use and one other is set up for flexible filament material (but is currently experiencing problems)</s> (Currently only used for events).
# Lulzbot TAZ 6 - Larger build area (250x250) than the minis, can be setup with an SD card with CGode sliced in [[Printing with Cura|Cura]] or with [[Octoprint and OctoEverywhere|Octoprint]]. one of the 6's is setup with a larger hardened steel nozzle and can be used for faster, lower detail printing as well as flexible filament prints
# Lulzbot TAZ 3 - Not recommended for general use. Needs to be driven from an SDCard with CGode sliced in [[Printing with Cura|Cura]]
# Cerberus Delta - SDCard and not dimensionally accurate. can only print PLA. Slic3r profile is available in Github.
# Cube Pro - Currently undergoing conversion. Not available for use.
'''SLA Printers''' (Stereolithography or Resin printing - "pulls" a model out of a vat of liquid resin. good for small, high detail parts such as figurines)

These printers require an [https://somakeit.org.uk/3d-printing/ induction].

# Elegoo Mars with wash and curing station

Full details can be found on the [[3D Printers Models]] page

== Printing overview ==
Printing in general steps goes:

# Create or download 3D model (ensuring it's .STL format)
# Slice the model into CGODE (specific to the printer) with a slicer.
# Prepare the printer (ensure the printer is operational and clean)
# Load the sliced GCODE onto the printer (using on-board SDCard reader, Octoprint or direct USB connection.
# Print!
There is a [https://somakeit.org.uk/resin-printing/ different workflow] for the resin printer but it broadly follows the same general steps.

=== 1. 3D Model ===

* Create a 3D model

Use a 3D CAD or modelling package to create your model. Typical free options are [https://www.tinkercad.com/ Tinkercad], [https://www.autodesk.co.uk/products/fusion-360/ Fusion 360], [https://openscad.org/ OpenSCAD] and [https://www.blender.org/ Blender], though there are many other options. See the infographic below for an overview of options and their relative strengths and weaknesses.

* Download a 3D file.

There are a number of 3D file download sites, the most popular are [https://www.thingiverse.com/ Thingiverse], [https://www.printables.com/ Printables] and [https://cults3d.com/en Cults3D]. many are free, some are paid. make sure to download a .STL or .3MF file otherwise you may need to convert your download before use.

=== 2. Slice the model ===
Before your 3D file can be printed, the stl has to be converted into instructions that the 3D printer can understand, AKA G-CODE. The printer prints one layer or slice at a time so this is called '''slicing'''. The exact method of slicing can be printer specific but as most of the printers in the space are Lulzbot ones, it is highly recommended to slice/print with the Lulzbot specific version of [[Printing with Cura|Cura]]. For the Cerberus Delta printer, slicing is recommended to be done with [https://slic3r.org/ Slic3r] or [https://github.com/prusa3d/PrusaSlicer/releases Prusa Slicer]. The profile for Slic3r (also works with prusa slicer as prusa slicer is forked from slic3r) can be found on our [https://github.com/somakeit/Config4Cerberus github page]

=== 3. Prepare the printer ===
The exact preparation of the printer is dependant on the surface of the build platform and the material you are printing. The space printers will either have bare glass or PEI as the sheet.

'''Bare glass''' can be printed directly onto with '''PLA''' material as long as it's clean and dry. A thin layer of glue stick will also promote correct adhesion, but isn't necessary for PLA. If the glue stick layer has seen several uses, then it can be cleaned off and re-applied or moistened with a light pass of a damp cloth and a rub to re-distribute the glue. '''ABS''' and flexible filaments such as '''ninjaflex''' require extra adhesive, specifically glue stick.

If the build plate is '''PEI,''' then additional care must be taken. '''ABS''' and '''PLA''' will both print directly on the surface but it must be super clean. A quick wipe with Isopropyl Alcohol is usually enough. If you are printing with '''PETG''' or '''Ninjaflex/TPU''' however, glue stick is still required otherwise they can damage the PEI layer on part removal.

The TAZ 6 printers perform auto bed levelling at the start of the print. This is achieved by the printer touching the hot-end to each corner of the bed where it makes an electrical contact with the 4 plates. It frequently encounters an issue with poor contact and will push down harder than it should to make the contact, which is easily observable. This will cause the bed level to be recorded lower than it should and your prints will fail. You should watch the start of each print and if you observe the poor contact behaviour, stop the print, clean the hot-end and plates and try again.

Keep watching until at least the first layer is down, ideally check again after the first 3, this is where most failures will occur or be evident.

=== 4. Load G-CODE ===
Once the model has been sliced, the G-CODE file must be transferred to the printer. this can be done through the built-in SDCard reader (if it has one - The Mini's do not), direct connection through USB from Cura or via Octoprint.

* SDCard

For the printers that have an SDCard slot, copy the created *.cgode file from the computer to the SDCard (Cura will prompt to save to removable media if it's inserted), then insert the SDCard into the printer. The menu will have a top level item: "'''Print from SDCard'''"

* Drive from Cura via USB

The Taz 6's and the mini's have USB ports and can be driven directly from the computer through Cura. if the printer is connected when slicing is complete Cura will display an option to start printing.

* Octoprint

Most of the printers have an attached Raspberry Pi acting as an octoprint server. You connect to the Octoprint server by pointing a web browser to the appropriate octopi instance attached to the printer you need e.g. taz1 is http://taz1 The login for Octoprint is the same as the space WiFi.

The detailed instructions for using [[Octoprint and Remote Printing]]

=== 5. Print! ===
You will have slightly different print instructions depending on if you're printing off the SDCard, directly from Cura or from Octoprint.

Watch that first layer, also watch the next couple if possible, this is where the errors happen.

==Pricing==
We charge £0.04 per gram for any printed plastic you take away with you, you don't pay for any failures if you put them straight into the fail jar. You do pay for support material. There is a [[3D Print Scale|scale]] next to the printers that you can use to weigh your parts after printing.

==Estimating Cost==
After you slice your part, and before you print it, you can look for the following line in the gcode file:
; filament used = 2139.9mm (15.1cm3)
*PLA weighs 1.4g/cm3, so the part above is 21.14g and £0.85.
*ABS weighs 1.0g/cm3, so the part above is 15.1g and £0.61.

==Printing large things==
One printer is currently set up with a webcam for print monitoring. If you leave prints unattended you should remote monitor your print with [[3D Print Monitoring|Octoeverywhere]]. There is a large light-blue bin for placing completed parts when the next printer user comes along.

==Some Advice==
*If you are looking for help with 3D printing a thing try and arrive with a model in STL format, as modelling a thing often takes longer than actually printing it so don't expect to be able to do both on the same day.
*Some things can't really be printed on our [[wikipedia:Fused_filament_fabrication|FFF Type]] printers, or need support material to be printed with them and removed later. An expert at the space will be able to advise you about what can print and what won't work so well. Generally the only restriction is "you can't print on top of air"... We can do overhangs a bit past 45 degrees (see the design rules infographic below) and we can bridge over large gaps if the bridge is flat.
*A good resource to check if your thing is print friendly is the [[File:3D_Printing_Design_Rules.pdf|3D Printing Design Rules|link=Special:FilePath/3D_Printing_Design_Rules.pdf]] document
*More helpful resources here:

</gallery>

==Print Queue==
So Make It generally has enough printers to satisfy demand, however if you think you might need a specific printer or capability and want to ensure it's available on your visit, please mention it on the [http://slack.somakeit.org.uk/ 3D printing slack channel:] #3D-pug, however we don't operate a formal queue.

SMIB

2025-04-04T16:43:20Z

Sjefferson99: Typos

=== Overview ===
SMIB is the So Make It Bot.

The github repo has further technical information and an issue tracker for bugs and ideas: https://github.com/somakeit/smib

SMIB is a slack bot on the [https://app.slack.com/client/T0K0ACWMB/D06UTJ334F5 So Make It slack instance] which will allow users to interact with SMIB through slack channels and commands.

At present SMIB manages space state updates and reporting and the current space state can be seen by opening the SMIB bot page on slack.

SMIB also posts open or closed messages in the space-open-announce channel.

=== SMIBHID ===
SMIBHID is the So Make It Bot Human Interface Device, it's buttons by the doors for simply reporting the space open/closed state with the push of a button.
[[File:Smibhid front door.jpg|thumb|Front door SMIBHID]]
[[File:Smibhid corridor door.jpg|thumb|Corridor door SMIBHID.]]

==== Usage ====

===== Open Close =====
Whenever you open the space and will be around for long enough to other non-keyholder members to come down and also use the space, press the space open button to let them know.

If you are locking the space up as the last member out the door, press the space closed button to let other members know that they will not be able to access the space without a key.

Pressing the space closed button when the space is already closed will do nothing. If you press the space open button while the space is already open it will allow you to add a new message for open for X hours as below.

===== Open for X hours =====
If you know you will be around for an approximate number of hours, when opening the space, repeatedly press the space open button to cycle through from 0-9 hours to announce the space open for.

If you just press once it will show 0 hours, equally if you increment from 9 hours you will return to 0 hours. 0 hours will simply state space open with no specific hours in the slack channel.

==== Reset button ====
Each SMIBHID has a reset button you can press to reset the device ad hopefully brig it back to life if it is not correctly showing space state or responding to input.

==== Connection error ====
If the green and red lights are both flashing and/or the display shows connectivity or space state update errors, then there is likely an issue with the SMIB server hosted on smib-pi in the vending machine. These issues should be raised with the Code or IT teams in slack.

==== API and web interface ====
SMIBHIB now features a web interface and API for more in depth information and control. See the [https://github.com/somakeit/smibhid SMIBHID repository] for more information.

==== Clean room air filter ====
The [[Corsi-Rosenthal air filter|air filter]] in the clean room is powered by a SMIBHID taking space state from SMIB and switching the fans on when the space is open when switched to auto mode.

It also contains a number of sensors for monitoring the air quality in the space which are accessible in slack using the /howfresh slash command, details below.

==== How fresh? ====
SMIBHID-Fan has BME280 and SCD30 sensor modules connected, which provide the following data:

* BME280
** Temperature
** Humidity
** Air pressure
* SCD30
** Temperature
** Humidity
** CO2

It is possible to query the current values from these sensors in slack by issuing the /howfresh slack command, which will shortly return the live values in the channel you issue the command from.

If you want to make a query that is shown publicly, issue the command in a channel such as general.

If you want to query the data without posting this to a public channel, you can ask the SMIB bot directly, by typing /howfresh in the chat tab of the SMIB bot by opening the bot from the left hand slack menu and opening the messages tab on the SMIB bot page.

Corsi-Rosenthal air filter

2025-04-04T16:12:29Z

Sjefferson99: Added details about air sensors and updated links to smib documentation.

[[File:Corsi-Rosenthal geometry.png|alt=Corsi-Rosenthal box geometry|thumb|Corsi-Rosenthal box geometry]]
The air filter was constructed using the schematic shown in the attached image and is adapted from this commercially available unit: [https://www.cleanairkits.com/products/luggables-international-california-and-canada Clean air kits - Luggables]

The following parts list was used to construct a 12v computer fan driven dual HEPA filter device to drive filtered air at head height in the clean room and turn over the air approx. 3 times per hour to reduce the risk of infection of viruses such as Covid-19 by reducing the levels of airborne viral particles in indoor settings ([[wikipedia:Corsi–Rosenthal_Box|Wikipedia for details]])

* 50 x M3 machine screws and nuts
* 1 x 12v DC power supply
* 6mm plywood and varnish for the structure, to be laser cut
* 12 x fan grills to be 3D printed at the space
* Glue / glue gun
* Duct tape
* Wire to extend power supply
* 1 x rubber grommet
* Eyelets for hanging

[[File:20241002 215832.jpg|alt=Filter unit open with SMIBHID installed.|thumb|Filter unit open with SMIBHID installed.]]

The fan unit has a [https://github.com/somakeit/smibhid SMIBHID] device that drives a MOSFET from GPIO based on space state to enable the fans when the space is open to save filter life. A switch allows selection of on/of or auto by connecting the appropriate gnd/nothing/smibhid transistor output.

Further details about SMIB and SMIBHID are available on the [[SMIB]] page.

The SMIBHID device includes a number of sensors for monitoring the air quality and these can be accessed using the slack command /howfresh - more details are available in the how fresh section of the [[SMIB]] page.

I asked ChatGPT for a circuit diagram as I was feeling lazy, but it gave me a 1960s inspired hallucination and a hard to read ascii diagram, so that's all you're getting for now.

[[File:Corsi-Rosenthal geometry.png|alt=Corsi-Rosenthal box geometry|thumb|Corsi-Rosenthal box geometry]]
The air filter was constructed using the schematic shown in the attached image and is adapted from this commercially available unit: [https://www.cleanairkits.com/products/luggables-international-california-and-canada Clean air kits - Luggables]

The following parts list was used to construct a 12v computer fan driven dual HEPA filter device to drive filtered air at head height in the clean room and turn over the air approx. 3 times per hour to reduce the risk of infection of viruses such as Covid-19 by reducing the levels of airborne viral particles in indoor settings ([[wikipedia:Corsi–Rosenthal_Box|Wikipedia for details]])

* 1 x Filtrete 1900 20” x 25” - https://www.digikey.co.uk/en/products/detail/3m/UA03-4/16499588
* 12 x arctic p12 fans
* 2 x 5:1 fan hubs
* 1 x 5.5mm DC barrel to 4-pin adaptor
* 50 x M3 machine screws and nuts
* 1 x 12v DC power supply
* 6mm plywood and varnish for the structure, to be laser cut
* 12 x fan grills to be 3D printed at the space
* Glue / glue gun
* Duct tape
* Wire to extend power supply
* 1 x rubber grommet
* Eyelets for hanging

[[File:20241002 215832.jpg|alt=Filter unit open with SMIBHID installed.|thumb|Filter unit open with SMIBHID installed.]]
The fan unit has a [https://github.com/somakeit/smib/tree/master/smibhid SMIBHID] device that drives a MOSFET from GPIO based on space state to enable the fans when the space is open to save filter life. A switch allows selection of on/of or auto by connecting the appropriate gnd/nothing/smibhid transistor output.

I asked ChatGPT for a circuit diagram as I was feeling lazy, but it gave me a 1960s inspired hallucination and a hard to read ascii diagram, so that's all you're getting for now.

Little CNC Machine

2025-02-16T18:16:31Z

Sjefferson99: Startup procedure detailed

=== Permitted applications ===
Extracted from manual, to be reworked into more definitive list.

* Printed circuit boards and front plates
** One sided and double sided boards
*** FR3
*** FR4
*** FR5
*** G10
* Flexible substrates
* RF substrates
* Drilling test adapters
* Structuring film patterns
* Solder frames for PCB assembly
* SMD fine line
* Contour milling
* Engraving front panels or labels
* Depth drilling of rigid or flexible boards
* Depanelling and reworking of populated and unpopulated boards
* Machining of housings
* Multilayer PCBs up to 8 layers

=== COM port configuration ===
Ensure the COM port is configured in the OS device manager as follows:
* 57600 bps
* 8 data bits
* 0 parity bits
* 1 stop bit
* Hardware flow control
'''As a failback procedure, If it won't connect with correct port settings try this:'''
# Power the 4 way strip
# Ensure the compressed air connector is connected and pressurised
# Power on the PC if off
# Switch OFF the mill at the switch to the right by the power connector
# Load the Boardmaster software from the shortcut on the desktop
# Splashscreen appears - wait for 10-20 seconds for the connection failure dialogue to appear
# Ensure COM1 is selected and power on the CNC
# Select connect
# In the dialogue that appears:
## Select "In the main clamp"
## Enter "1" in "Enter the free tool position"
#Click OK on remove tool to toolbox
#Machine will locate tool 1 then relocate to home and the software loads ready to use

=== Startup procedure ===
#Ensure Computer, Vacuum and S100 are powered on (should all be one power strip to the left of the machine.
#Open Boardmaster 5.1 from the desktop icon
#The tool status dialogue will open
##If there is a tool in the head, ensure there is an empty tool position, select "In the main clamp" and specify the empty tool position (left to right 1-10)
##If there is no tool in the head, ensure none of the radio buttons are selected, keep the free tool position at 0 and press OK
#You are now in the main Boardmaster interface for control of the CNC.

=== Troubleshooting ===

* No gas pressure
** Connect gas hose
** Ensure compressor is on
** The gas pressure requirement is quite high, run the air to trigger the compressor to achieve sufficient pressure
* Error presented on screen
** There is no way to cancel these
** Press solve 2-3 times until it claims to have solved the error
** Press the X in the top right until the box clears (Usually 5-6 times)

Sjefferson99: COM port settings

=== Permitted applications ===
Extracted from manual, to be reworked into more definitive list.

* Printed circuit boards and front plates
** One sided and double sided boards
*** FR3
*** FR4
*** FR5
*** G10
* Flexible substrates
* RF substrates
* Drilling test adapters
* Structuring film patterns
* Solder frames for PCB assembly
* SMD fine line
* Contour milling
* Engraving front panels or labels
* Depth drilling of rigid or flexible boards
* Depanelling and reworking of populated and unpopulated boards
* Machining of housings
* Multilayer PCBs up to 8 layers

=== Startup procedure ===
I think the below may now have been mitigated by setting hardware flow control, ensure the COM port is configured in the OS device manager as follows:

* 57600 bps
* 8 data bits
* 0 parity bits
* 1 stop bit
* Hardware flow control

The machine is quite picky about the startup order of operations, if you follow the below you should have success in loading the software with a good connection to the machine.

# Power the 4 way strip
# Ensure the compressed air connector is connected and pressurised
# Power on the PC if off
# Switch OFF the mill at the switch to the right by the power connector
# Load the Boardmaster software from the shortcut on the desktop
# Splashscreen appears - wait for 10-20 seconds for the connection failure dialogue to appear
# Ensure COM1 is selected and power on the CNC
# Select connect
# In the dialogue that appears:
## Select "In the main clamp"
## Enter "1" in "Enter the free tool position"
#Click OK on remove tool to toolbox
#Machine will locate tool 1 then relocate to home and the software loads ready to use

=== Troubleshooting ===

* No gas pressure
** Connect gas hose
** Ensure compressor is on
** The gas pressure requirement is quite high, run the air to trigger the compressor to achieve sufficient pressure

Setting up your access login (Authentik)

2025-01-24T17:53:31Z

Sjefferson99: Correct login detailed steps.

If you need to access network resources at the space externally, such as remote access to Octopi for 3D printing, you will need to set up an account on Authentik which gives you access to various systems.

If you do not have an account or are not sure, drop a message in the it-web slack channel https://app.slack.com/client/T0K0ACWMB/C2GDYDZJA to request your access be checked, setup or a password reset as appropriate.

An admin will reply via DM with your username and password and a URL to access the service.

You will need to configure MFA (Multi Factor Authentication) to complete the sign up process and to access the authentik website. To do this you will need a smart phone and your favourite authenticator app. I use Microsoft authenticator, but anything that can handle standard TOTP will work. The steps below will outline using MS auth if you are not sure, but you can skip this if you are.

'''Steps to set up and login:'''

* Connect to the Authentik URL: https://auth.somakeit.org.uk
* Enter your username provided by the IT Admin
* Enter your password provided by the IT Admin (This may have been provided by a link to one time secret, click the link to see the password. I will only appear once, copy it locally until you can reset it after logging in, you won't be able to use the link again)
* Either:
** Select TOTP device
** Follow the instructions to set up your MFA authenticator app
*** Download MS Authenticator from the play store
*** Open the app and click the + button top right
*** Scan the QR code presented to you by Authentik
*** Enter the number on your phone appearing on the new Authentik account in MS Authenticator below the QR code on the web page
*** Click submit
** Or select Web Authn device
** Follow the instructions to set up your device to approve login requests
*** Select use another device
*** Select iPhone, iPad or Android device
*** Scan the QR code presented with your device camera and confirm
* You will now be presented with the login page where you can click to access any resources you have been assigned such as the 3D printers

If you need access to other items or have any issues or questions about the access solution, please drop a message in the IT-Web slack channel.
