Every time I try to connect, kstars crash with my previous reported log, so I'm unable to use the sesto senso 2 focuser with kstars. Anyone else with this issue?

If KStars is crashing in Linux, then please install ekosdebugger and post the logs from it.

Replied by Cliff on topic Sesto Senso 2 connect issue


I have most of it working except the RPI3 with Stellarmate , I tried the following which someone posted here earlier,

sudo apt update
sudo apt install libindi1 indi-bin
ls -latr /usr/bin/indi_sestosenso2_focus
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 42504 Mar 7 16:00 /usr/bin/indi_sestosenso2_focus

Shows it is there but doesn't connect

I tried my Ascom IntelNUC worked first go so the Seno 2 was ok.

Tried my RPI4 Stellarmate and it already had the Senso 2 driver I thought the 3 and 4 had the same version ?

Could connect using ccdciel but not Kstars on my Mac, until I renamed the device from Sesto Senso to Sesto Senso 2 in the EKOS profile editor.

Now it works with Kstars . Now if Kstars only didn't crash while capturing images, I use Ccdciel instead for capture.

Now to figure out the RPI3 issue.

Hope this is of some help

for others with this issue, I solved it on OSX thanks to this page: www.silabs.com/community/interface/forum...0x_usb_to_uartb-LJMf

<<
As discussed in the following thread, it appears the v5.x SiLabs driver is completely broken.
Fortunately the v4.x driver, which is included in the "Legacy MacVCP Driver" folder in the same download, works fine. Do note that you might have to install it twice for it to work, as the first install will just remove the existing driver. If it's installed, there should be a "SiLabsUSBDriver.kext" file in /Library/Extensions with a date created of June 16, 2017.

Hi,

I seem to run into the same problemnot being able to connect to my new Sesto Sense 2. I tried to install the USB-driver you mentioned, however the version I get installed with the legacy package is as of Feb 28th, 2019. What am I doing wrongly?

cheers

Hi, installing twice for me did the work... "Do note that you might have to install it twice for it to work, as the first install will just remove the existing driver. If it's installed, there should be a "SiLabsUSBDriver.kext" file in /Library/Extensions with a date created of June 16, 2017.". It's not wotking for you? I'm on macOS High Sierra 10.13.6
