Here's the problem

I've to move the mount (skywatcher az-eq6) to a couple of angles. I saw in other topics that other users manager to move the mount. In a page of the developer manual, there's a description of the set_prop get_prop tools, but not the actions or the properties, argument to write in the tools in command line. Another question is the following: The set get and eval call any sort of executable on the server or client? If yes, where are situated the related repositories?

With your last suggestion it worked! :) thank you so much! just a thing... the following step is not very clear for me (sorry, I'm new to this kind of things :S )

6. install ws4py:
sudo mkdir /opt/ws4py
sudo chown user:user /opt/ws4py # !!! you must change user on your system login!

at the end of the 5. step, I'm currently in the libindipython dir. Shall I have to change the dir or follow the step as I read them? and I don't understand # !!! you must change user on your system login! ... Sorry again :dry:

CFTSIO will be good for Ubuntu 15.10? I'm currently using a virtual machine. anyway, even in Ekos returns an analogue problem at the same step. :unsure: I'll reply as soon I'll try to install CFTSIO :)

Thanks for all!

Ok as soon as possible I will try this. This passage has to be done before anything else or there's no problem of temporal succession?
Is it possible to use Ekos virtual machine to do the steps?

Dear all

I'm trying to follow the steps on sourceforge.net/p/pyindi-client/wiki/Home/ , but when I try to cmake ../swig-indi-python it returns me the following error:

Ok then, I think I could use the INDI protocol but create my client by using the script ong tolse to interface my program on Python to the server right?

Emanuele replied to the topic 'Mount Control' in the forum. 8 years ago

Ok! But what about set properties not by using INDI protocol between client and server? If I want to set properties from values send by my PC to Raspberry pi on my own way via local network, Once the Pi receive values and in my cpp program i store values as (for example) float dec and float ar, can I use the lib to set properties and send the commando to the Mount? Then I think driver will do the rest, or not? You told me that the .cpp and .h that I can include un my .cpp main don't have methods but can I set properties from values that I have in the program I want to realise?

The project I'm trying to develop is not related to astronomy application. Is about track UAV with an high gain antenna on the Mount. Think you for your support, Really! so there's no way to create a server from myself by inserting the proper .cpp, .h and set properties by not using the INDI client and server ? (Pass the value with socket communication)
