Having been away for a while I could not connect to my CGX via INDI/Ekos and discovered that, in the pull-down menus, there are now several CGX connection choices. When I selected the "HC" choice all worked as before.
I am interested in using the PC port on the CGX so I connected a USB-B cable to the PC port with the other end connected to my USB distribution box. When I tried to connect via Ekos the program said something like can't make contact with the Az/El motors and finally gave-up. I noticed on SM there are two devices created in the /dev directory: ttyAMA0 and ttyACM0. When I tried explicitly putting those values in the connect box for the CGX there was still no joy.
Thanks,
Bob
