To be honest I have no clue. Followed the instruction on how to contribute to Indi, and the last paragrahp told to issue a pull request. That is what I did ....

Hi,

For Ubuntu 18.04 (latest) I can supply the binary. Will make some instruction where you can get these and how to install. (No time tonight so hopefully tomorrow)

Regards,

Hi,

looks as if the version is now in the nighly-build. (see indilib.org/download.html)
So it should be possible to install it by updatiing from the nightly builds. (Read the warnings about the nightly builds ....)
The driver is indi_onfocus_focuser and normally will go in /usr/bin
(You should be able to select it from KStars. If it not shows up, you can install it in kstars as a custom driver)



Hope this helps

Hi,

hmmm. That will need some investigation. When I try it against an Arduino the firmware reacts as expected: (Commands exchange looks ok). I have no motors connected, so can't test.
Questions:
"In general from windows point of view when connect you must feel that its active".

When does this happen under Windows, when you connect the device to the port, or when you open the device using the Windows software?
Can you attach a screen shot of the Indi Control Pannel for the driver.

Thanks
