To use this model, disassemble a Logitech C270. Adjust its focus distance to approximately 230mm. Detach the camera from its original mount.
Attach the camera to this mount by placing the original pin with the tabs facing vertically. It takes some doing to get it pushed in – I used the needle nose pliers that came with the mk4. After the pin is inserted all the way, reattach the screw on the other side.
For attaching the webcam to PrusaConnect, I wrote a script that is morally the same as this: https://gist.github.com/cannikin/4954d050b72ff61ef0719c42922464e5 (although I used fswebcam -r 1280x720 "$IMAGE_FILE" instead of the given command for capturing the image).
I think this camera is not completely ideal for monitoring the print bed but maybe it's good enough to be going forward with. I just had it lying around.
