Hi Scott,

we could share the experience with the equipment as I own a gm1000 MGPBox and running my setup with Indi (you also might use a INDIGO server) on a small computer on the rig. I used RPi3 and a finless mini PC.
The MGPBox should be attached directly to the mount and the mount reads the data directly. You only have to setup the mount to use it (Handbox or MW4 for doing that). You need in case of a firmware update a windows PC and connect MGPBox via USB (bis this so far was not needed). Please remind that only on source of refraction data should be used at the same time. So if you have MGPBox attache and enabled, please do not use any other software to update refraction data to the mount computer (MW4 does only allow one source and recognizes if a MGPBox is connected directly).
