Thanks mwrich4. I hadn't thought down that path....I think the saying is.. I couldn't see the forest because I was focused on the trees. So you're saying set the second pi up to run independently with whatever processes and any required cross-talk is over serial connection. Initially all of my funct...

Welcome to the Raspberry Pi forums. For documentation on a similar topic from Raspberry Pi themselves, see: https://www.raspberrypi.org/blog/octapi/ But it may not work the way you hope... Thanks B. Goode...good information. I'm new to multiprocessing so I'm learning. Got it working pretty smoothly...

Just for reference...

Thanks. I'll check out the link.
