Activate and deactivate Silent Mode from PrusaConnect

If would be nice to be able to control the Silent mode when the LCD is not in front of you. Imagine the following scenario: silent mode was ON during the night, the following morning you leave home without turing it OFF and thus, the printer is losing productivity. If it could be turned OFF from Connect it would make it work at full pace again.

Was googling this for this exact scenario. Should be a simple feature to add I guess

 - typically about 3% faster

If you are doing this cycle remotely you will see perhaps twenty minutes difference over a 24 hour print.  If your margins are this tight you have bigger issues to fix.

Cheerio,

It depends on the very print job itself. If there's a lot of travel moves I've seen up 4 hours of difference / 24 hours. But other than manufacturing throughput it's about convenience and gaining the LCD features as a remote controller.

On my mk4s, where it has printed for 2h45m, it jumps from being done on 4 hours to 3h25m by turning of silent mode. It's definitely a nice operation to adjust remotely.

Cheerio...
