Strange behavior...
I made some videos of some settings that if they are made via SWS do not affect the ekos settings of the mount.
The first video shows the adjustment of the meridian passage limits which work consistently: if I set them in the SWS I see them in the Ekos drive and vice versa. The others, on the other hand, show anomalous behavior... Am I making a mistake?

Thank you for the tests, you did quite the right thing.
Normally these settings should be polled and displayed but obviously something is wrong.
Most probably not critical but needs a correction.
I will check and come back to you.
But please provide the versions of your indi (under connexion tab)

very good !! at least now I know the last version is online (I suppose you did not compile it)


But I see you have an outdated version of the SmartWebServer, I have "Smart Web Server 2.01e (OnStep4.24m)"
you use 1.0a (OnStep 10.12I)
but this is not the issue.
I am testing now and confirm there is something strange.
I'll fix it and let you know.

Chad,

Oh whatever you might find that is strange or need a patch is welcome!
I see that something is not updating correctly in the following commands:
Degrees pas meridian: :GXE9#, :GXEA# and respective :SXE9,n# and :SXEA,n#
seem to work but where Indi says 20 minutes SmartWebServer says 5 degrees ???? and it is not Indi related I issue the commands via Python Scripts

Also Autoflip On/ Off seem not to update but this is sure in Indi Driver:
Command :GX95# and respective :SX95,n# (n 1 or 0)

For the Overhead and Horizon Limits
Commands :Go# and respective SoDD# and Gh# and respective ShDD#
I found no discrepancy but will continue to check.

Thanks

I am testing with TMC2209 with the driver status turned on do not see all of the statuses that SWS display in INDI.

In SWS i see "OK" "Standstill" something about Load A... Also there is a comma in your display. So maybe there is a typo or formatting error?

OK looks like when tracking is enabled RA shows "OK". If the axis is not moving it shows "Standstill". I saw the "Load A" after/during a goto/slew.

Chad,

there is also a refresh issue in the SmartWebServer.
When I make a change in Indi it is not reflected until I force browser to refresh

yes i think in the SWS only some parts of it are "dynamic" in that it will update. Some you need a hard refresh.
