Hi,

I recently purchased a M-uno mount from Avalon Instruments. There is an ASCOM driver which is actively developed by the company but no INDI as of yet.

I know that the mount can be controlled via the LX200 protocol. However, there is also a built in focuser control but I could't get any information whether this one could also be controlled with a standard protocol.

Does anybody know whether there is an INDI driver around or in development for Avalon mounts? Are there others ways to control the mount/focuser using ekos?

Thanks for any help and best wishes

There isn't anything specific to Avalon. If they're using the exact focuser as in Meade then you can use the same focusing commands. If however they use something different, you need to contact them to support INDI.

Dear Jasem,

thanks for your reply. I didn't know that LX200 also supports a focuser. I will try that. Unfortunately, I didn't get a response from Avalon on an INDI driver. I only read somewhere that they think of Linux support. I will report back if the focuser works with LX200.

Best wishes
