I would like to know this as well. I’m considering a flat panel but want to make sure it’s compatible with INDI. Everything I’ve read only mentions ASCOM.

Hi all,
Just thought I'd check in and see if anyone knew if the Stellarmate Pro was still on track for a June release. I'm putting together a portable rig and the final piece is the control unit. Like the look of the Pro as it means I don't need a PPBA.

The Web Manager opens on the remote PC on my telescope. I have started the INDI server.
What I’m not able to do it connect to that INDI server through KStars on my laptop.

So, I found the host name and port and entered this into the Profile Editor in Ekos but I still can't connect. Screenshot is below.

Hi all,
I have installed INDI on an Unbuntu NUC and normally I remote into it to run EKOS/KStars. I would prefer to run it from my laptop as the performance is better, but I can't seem to find the correct INDI server hostname and port.
Can anyone suggest how I can find these so I can connect KStars on my laptop to the INDI server running on my NUC?

Hi all,
Just bought a ZWO ASI2600MC and am getting used to it. I was wondering where the dew-heater control is in EKOS? I can see on the Control tab in the INDI Control Panel there is a setting called "AntiDewHeater" but there's no info on how it works. So if anyone else has this camera and can help it would be greatly appreciated.

Hi all,
I have a question about guiding and guide calibration. So here’s my problem.
During an imaging session, I will go through guide calibration, start guiding and have a pretty good night (RMS - 0.5 to 0.
. On other nights I will use the exact same set-up, do a guide calibration again, only this time the dec and ra plot graphs will fly wildly off the chart and I have to stop the session as I can’t recover it. Sometimes this will happen during the same session if I slew to another target and do calibration again (should I be doing this?).
My set-up doesn’t change from night to night. My polar alignment is within 7 arc sec. My settings don’t change. My calibration pulse is set to 500. Not sure if this is the correct value but I read on this forum somewhere that’s the value I should use.
Can I re-use a previous nights calibration say from a week ago when I know everything was working? Should I be calibrating when I set-up again?
My mount is a SW AZEQ6GT. When it works I all works, I get really good guiding.
I did read on this forum to ensure my guide calibration has been done properly but it was never explained what “properly” was. So any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance

I assumed it could be done the way something like PemPro or PecPrep are able to write the corrections back to the mount.
And no I don't have any experience in signal processing. Sorry.

Hi,
I'm loving GPG as it really helps with my mounts periodic error and improves my guiding. What I don't like is having to redo it every session. Would it be possible to have some sort of PPEC that is encoded on the mount that is persistent between sessions?
