Temporary run can be terminated simply by standard means of ending a running process on your device.
Permanent run uses systemd to keep itself alive as a system service. To turn it off type: systemctl stop camscripter.service. This command will stop the process of CSc-Rbi but will not affect its status as registered service.
To start the process again type systemctl start camscripter.service.
For removing CamScripter from systemd services please run sudo camscripter-unregister.
To remove CamScripter from your device please type :
sudo npm uninstall -g camscripter-raspberry
As of today npm has no mechanism alowing for hooking automated scripts to package uninstall. Therefore you need to run camscripter-unregister first.
If you removed CamScripter in less formal fashion it might be nessessary to manualy remove Camscripter systemd service file or other leftover artefacts and disable the service.
