Hello Everyone,

I'm using a home-made Newtonian 8" scope with ServoCAT + Argo Navis + Hitecastro DC focuser + Lodestar Starlight Xpress guide cam + Nikon camera body.
I'm looking to control the system using Astroberry but so far failed to connect to the mount (Ekos connect OK to the focuser, Nikon and guide camera).
Do anyone of you you knows about such configuration or understand what's wrong in the settings below?
Here was the initial configuration:
- AN serial 1 connected to the Raspberry with the dedicated cable + DB9 to USB converter.
- Serial 1 at 9600 baud and Startup on 'meade'
- AN serial 2 connected to the DSC port on the servoCAT
- Serial 2 at 19200 baud and Startup on 'servocat'
- No connection on the ServoCAT 'PC Port'

After having received an answer from the Wildcard Innovations forum I changed for these settings:
- AN serial 1 connected to the DSC port on the ServoCAT
- Serial 1 at 19200 baud and Startup on 'servocat'
- Raspberry connected to the ServoCAT 'PC Port' via DB9 to USB converter
- ServoCAT AUX switch 'On' (down)
However there is no 'ServoCAT' in the mount profiles of Ekos. I tested LX200 Basic and Classic but did not succeed to connect.

Thank you for any help !
