Hi, I’m looking to set up my taz6 remotely as I print at home but work elsewhere, i want to be able to run a webcam and control the print via my mobile phone if possible so if I have an issue with the print I can stop it till I return home.  
Can anyone help with what I need to connect all this stuff to have it work for me?  
Thanks heaps

Hey,  
I’ve written a great little tutorial for the setup process for OctoPi, a standalone Operating system that runs on a Raspberry Pi that hosts 3D Printers for network access! [Take a look here for the write-up.](https://core-electronics.com.au/tutorials/remote-3d-printing-with-octopi.html)  
If you need the bits and pieces to get one up and running, we’ve put together a kit that should get you out of trouble. [You can see that one here.](https://core-electronics.com.au/octopi-kit-for-3d-printing.html) It comes with everything you need, you’ll just need to print the Camera housing and you’ll be set to monitor your printer from anywhere.  
A worthwhile mention would also be [the Timelapse Project](https://core-electronics.com.au/projects/time-lapsing-in-octoprint-properly) we put together.

Great information. Thanks.

So what else would I require to have a fully functioning system? Camera?
