Hello,
I've searched the forum, googled the interwebs and gone line by line through Kstars/Ekos/indi control panel and I can't seem to find where the guide rate is set. I'm running Linux with the above named software as well as PHD2. If someone would take pity on me and tell me what I'm missing I would be forever grateful.... well I'd really appreciate it anyway!
Guiding rates are set on the INDI device screen (The box that pops up when you start to connect) Go to your mount tab, and look for motion or something like that, if it's supported, you can enter and set your mount guiding rates there.
On guiding tab there is guiding rate field. But this is only to enter correct guide speed of mount so ekos can calculate correct pulse length. Real guiding speed is set in indi device options.
Ok thanks.
I'm using the LX200 Onstep driver. Under motion control there is a guide rate for both RA and DEC but there is no entry box nor set button. Both boxes are set to 1 and can't be changed. Any suggestions? I'm asking because the mount I'm using is on old Celestron fork mount. I've added a dec drive and steppers instead of a synchronous motor on the RA so no recommended guide rate for the mount. So I want to experiment a bit with rates.
