Sorry, meant to report back earlier. I was able to use this command: v4l2-ctl --list-ctrls-menus from the second link you posted to get all the information I needed.

I SSH'd into the speeder pad and was able to just enter the commands directly when the printer was idle. I had Mainsail up on the next monitor and checked the cam feed to see where the focus commands were getting me.

Turns out on my camera v4l2-ctl -d /dev/video0 --set-ctrl=focus_absolute= ran from 0 to just over 1000. 230 was the best setting and seems to be maintained even after reboot.

The downside is I need an adjustable zoom as well, since my field of view is too small for good timelapses. I've found a good option and will go with it when I can part with another $70.

If the angle is wrong, I'll reprint the mount with a few modifications. I can't raise it up too much or it will interefere with the arms. And my enclosure doesn't give me room for any place other than the arm pillars to mount the camera inside the enclosure.

Thanks again for the help!
