I have connected a raspberry PI to mine with a wifi dongle. I am using the Octo Print software. They do a sdcard image that just works. I also now use Cura for creating my G code files. I have attached my profile with modified G Code start and end codes. It also supports the camera addon for remote monitoring!!
Just copy this code to a file called k8200 and load it in.
