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.

Looks like tracking rates changed in SWS are not being picked up by INDI.

I will stop there as i want to make sure this is useful or not.

But this does not explain why 1 degree in SWS is shown as 4 minutes in Indi.
In OnStep the parameter is divided by 4 (why and whan this changed ???) I will investigate.

I think it may be that 1 degree is for angular distance, and 4 minutes is the measure of time.

So it is the same thing, but different units.

Hi, Alain
I don't focus on the fact that I can't compile INDI because I spend my free time developing the client (it doesn't require INDI compilation)

PS:I use KUbuntu and always get cmake error:
Could NOT find Libev (missing: LIBEV_LIBRARY LIBEV_INCLUDE_DIR)
libev-dev is installed
I tried your script with same result

Hm... It looks like strange behavior or bug of apt command. It doesn't install libev-dev if to write many packages after `sudo apt install` (as in your build script).
Separate `sudo apt install libev-dev` solved the problem

Hi Alan,
Thanks for the amazing work you do...
The thing I want to fix is the "slew elevation limit" setting. In addition to not corresponding with the SWS settings, it resets to the values -30 and +89 at each restart. If I forget to change them (and it happens often...) this thing doesn't make the automatic meridian flip work. In fact, the mount stops even before crossing the meridian.
Also this value doesn't seem writable, i can't change it even with a script when starting the connection for example
