Anyway, it seems there is an issue with EKOS rather than INDI driver...

I see, I made lot of changes since. This file was more for testing the error messagee not for the Ekos T° display.
use the latest libindi git (it has been merged yesterday) github.com/indilib/indi

Yes! It works in the end.
Silly me (hardware guy). :silly:

Thanks a lot Alain! :)

I will try to check how it works with two sensors present.

Best,

Briefly:

EKOS version 3.6.6 stable ignores DS18B20 values at all, although properly read in INDI driver
EKOS version 3.6.7 beta works fine - can use DS18B20 and distinguish its vales properly when BME280 is present, too

And this is the reason why I insist on versions of all the components, not just Kstars

================= indi_lx200_OnStep driver
1.20
================= kstars version
kstars 3.6.7 Beta
================= OnStep firmwares versions
OnStepX version: = 10.18.c
OnStep version: = 4.24.s
SmartWebServer version: = 2.06.j
SmartHandController version: = 4.00.f

Hi since I have been sponsored a MaxESP4 board by Chad Gray I am now in position to test OnStep X more easily.
OnStepX has been released for normal users since no more serious bugs have been seen for a while.

The last changes I made seem to work on Both OnStep 4.x.x and OnStep 10.17.x

I think with OnStepX the development arrives at a point where no more major changes will be done so it is time to concentrate on cleaning and tuning the driver.

there are weak points in the driver that need more work:
- Multiple Focuser
- Derotator
- Rotator
These are features that I personally never have tested since I don't have the related set-up (AltAz mount for example)
I will try to work on it but at a certain point nothing is better than running in the field in real situation so help is needed here.

Does anybody already use Altaz mount with derotator with Onstep on Indi?
Feedback is welcome on that topic
