Hi,

I recently built an observatory in my backyard. I decided to switch my software from windows to Gnu-Linux/Kstars/Ekos/indi .
Everything seems to work fine, but with eqmod I need to set my desired guiding rate each time I connect IndiServer. Those values don't seems to part of the config file saved by the driver.

So is there a way to save those values ? Or can I write a little script that should start after indiserver to set my values ?

Best Regards,

Davy

I added it to config, you should be able to save starting from tomorrow's PPA update.

Wow, it is realy fast !!!

You're awesome ! Thank you

Hi Jasem,

Options of guiding rates seems to be correctly saved, but it's not loaded after indiserver is launched.
Do you need some logs or debug informations ?

Davy

I give you more informations :

I run kstars/ekos on my desktop computer, indi is configured to connect to an indiserver running on a raspberry pi directly connected to the devices.

If you load config, it doesn't get applied?

Argh, I can't remember .
I'll try tonight and give you an answer .

Hi,

So, I have done quick tests. Guiding rates are correctly written into the config file. When I launch Ekos and then click on the load button, guiding rates are updated.
But, if I disconnect indi on my local machine, stop the local indi server and then restart it, guiding rates values are reseted to default (0.3) .
How does eqmod works, does it read the config file at startup to set the save values ?

Maybe, I don't understand correctly the behaviour of eqmod.

In Ekos Setting --> General, make check load device configure is set to On Connection

Yes, this setting is set as this

Then it should work, I just tested it with EQMod and it loads it just fine upon connection.

Hi Jasem,

Yes ! It works now, it was a little problem of rights for the config file... my mistake.
Sorry for that .

Thank you very much for your time and your work.
