 Then put it in the PIZERO, boot it and verify it gets an ip adress (eg : in your router)
-Beware the **PIZERO has two USB ports and you need them both** ( https://www.wmaker.net/einstein2a/photo/art/default/8858432-14028092.jpg?v=1453918540 ) ; the one at the bottom of the case is the "power" one, you simply connect it with a micro usb cable to the USB thumbdrive port on the A5/A3S : it'll power the pi.

-The second one, in the center, is the data port. You connect this one with an OTG adapter to the "blue" data cable (USB2.0 TYPE B, the square port). You can find a micro USB to USB2.0 TYPE B cable, they do exist in china.

+The one at the side of the case (right on the picture) is the "power" one, you simply connect it with a micro usb cable to the USB thumbdrive port on the A5/A3S : it'll power the pi. You can also power it with a USB powerbank for your tests (no fan noise :) )
+The second cable, located in the center, is the **data port**. This one will send Octoprint's instructions (GCODE) to the printer, in the same way your laptop would do. The Pizero only has MicroUSB ports, so you need connect this one with an **OTG adapter** to the "blue" data cable (USB2.0 TYPE B, the square port).
+You can find a micro USB to USB2.0 TYPE B cable, they do exist in china. (I'm waiting one myself.)
+Once it's powered up (there a little green led flashing that you can see barely at the back of the case) **try connecting** to it with it's ip, or maybe http://octopi.local if proper dns resolution is in place.
