Is a Replicape needed for a connection with octoprint? I don't have any,

Is a Replicape needed for a connection with octoprint? I don’t have any, because i have an external stepper driver.

Octoprint shows me only the AUTO interface. I can’t find any HOWTO for the connection to redeem, e. g.

Is it normal that the local.cfg not exists?

Sorry for the stupid questions, i’m a printing noob… :confused:

local.cfg does not exist by default. That is right.
If only Auto exists, Redeem is not running probably.
Replicape is not needed, but you have to apply the overlay manually.
