Maybe I was unprecise. What I tried to say was. in 3.3.4 you could by putting "astrometry" in "AUXsetting" use your own solver on your INDI server instead of a client-local or internet solver. in 3.3.8 this ability seemed to have dissapeared as Astro-remote does not work. Will be happy to wait for your results, maybe it's just the fool I am

I asked that a while ago but maybe things have changed. My CST via StarSence HC (currently far away) failed to stay connected on USB. Is there any chance to power cycle (includung replacement of that bloody by-hand config) that HC via remote?

the point is, 3.3.8 does not use the indi_astrometry driver to utilize a distant astrometry installation for "offline" solving. I went back to 3.3.4 all all is fine - sorry to say but 3.3.8 does not run well

where is that "offline"? I have ASTAP, Asto.net and a selector online or remote (which then asks for astro binaries)

same situation here - win-kstars 3.3.8 - previous versions worked. need solution as the teleskop does not always has inet connection

Peter,
thats incorrect. EKOS can perfectly hande the new Celestron focuser, either via the Celestron_GPS or better with the stand-alone driver indi_celestron_sct_focus.

I have the Starsense now for one week and see something strange, compared to the normal HC. In KSTARS (nightly branch) the following happens:
- using the "manual" HC in KSTARS a move sometimes does not stop when releasing the soft button
- the mount mark - the red cross - jumps around sporadically or is sometimes not shown, suspect KSTARS is not receiving information at that time
please advice which information you need in case this behaviour is not known to you

@Chris celestron_gps now shows correct focuser values. Can you copy the missing elements also to _gps like calibation or presets?

@Chris: What I forgot to mention. the standalone as 3 fields for preset, which are missing in the celestron_gps version

@CHRISROWLAND, thanks for that. Indeed for that I ran both but the error also came as iit ran alone. Happy to test the next version tonight (UTC 15h)
as you were talking about signed/unsigned stuff. maybe OT but. If I use the EKOS handcontroler and press the left, the scope turns right and other way round (celestron_gps) strange behaviour where I don't know the reason for (may be because the AVX only went through quick align and then solving?)

@RON KRAMER I will give it a try. need to check if I can command hibernate from ekos and if hibernate survives through a power cycle. It's a pity...
