Thanks. I'll try to compile it myself then. Just installed raspbian on an rpi and connected an asi120mc to it. Struggling with that as always, maybe compiling myself will to the trick...

I've tried to download the Daily-built bleeding edge INDI Library 1.7.4+ including 3rd party drivers for Raspberry pi, but I get an error message: Notice

The requested file was not found. Please inform the webmaster.: libindi_1.7.4_rpi.tar.gz

I've searched for a way of contacting the webmaster with no luck. Any tips on where i can get the file?

Cheers,

I'm int the process of setting up a telescope and mount (skywatcher AZ-EQ5GT) to look at an artificial star that we will generate in the mesosphere using laser aiming to measure the magnetic field up there. I've successfully set up KSTARS/EKOS and it works fine with controlling the mount.
However, I've not been able to find an efficient way of giving altitude and azimuth as Goto input in EKOS, except by right-clicking on the sky map which isn't very efficient and accurate. EKOS seems to be set up only to receive celestial coordinates, which of course makes sense for looking at celestial objects, but my artificial star will be stationary with respect to the ground. We will be pointing the laser at several locations in the sky, so it will be necessary to change direction of the telescope as well.
Are there any ways of giving horizontal coordinates as input for goto in EKOS?
Hints will be highly appreciated! Maybe I just missed some functionality?
