Hello
Has someone managed to run the engine with this code and arduino?
Because if I have well kstars that connects, the engine, on the other hand, does not turn.

  1. Did you able to upload the "original" code on your arduino board (without any other stuffs like motor board etc)???
  2. If Yes, Did you able to connect to it using the NiteCrawler drivers in Ekos/Kstars????
  3. If Yes, Did you able to manage commads tha start rotation to any angles???

so I put the code you put on the subject.
And I plugged in the engine driver with the engine.

2:If Yes, Did you able to connect to it using the NiteCrawler drivers in Ekos/Kstars????
Yes I put the driver NiteCrawler on kstars

3:If Yes, Did you able to manage commads tha start rotation to any angles???
Yes in kstars I can change the angle of the camera, but there is no reaction from the engine.

Hello
Then I have this one 28BYJ-48 for my tests.

It is the basic one to learn the stepper motor and the arduino.

You must adapt the code to work with it and with its uln2003 motor driver and libraries

OK, but how do I do it and where in the code should I make the changes?

hello guys!
I have a question for Jasem, is it possible to control the camera tilt on the map without going through the tab where we put the angle ?
I don't know if you see what I mean, or if there is a driver that can do it.

Because I have someone who has written a driver in "C" language for my project and obviously if there is a driver that can do it, he would like to see how he proceeds to try to understand it and see if he can integrate it with the one he has done.

Thank you and Merry Christmas !

Ekos rotator control can rotate the FOV indicator as you change the angle. The Ekos control would do this, not INDI driver.

OK, but we can't order it from the planetarium of kstars, or is it possible?
Because for the moment I can only do it if I open the rotator tab of kstars.
And I think that once we have done the "capture and resolution" and we know the camera angle according to the target, we should be able to change the angle and see it visually before taking a new capture.
