Hi,

I now work with Kstar-Ekos. On my new computer I have a RS232 port on it.
I'm on ubuntu.
With "setserial -g /dev/tty[0123456789], it gives : "/dev/ttyS0, UARTY 16550A, Port : 0x03f8, IRQ : 4"
So I tried : sudo indiserver -p 0x03f8 indi_lx200basic

It returns : Driver indi_lx200basic: Initializing from LX200 Basic device...
And, nothing appen, I have to do ctrl-C.

Could anybody help me?
Thank you.
Astromout.

kstars 2.9.7
ubuntu : xenial (I don't want yet to upgrade...because every is working :))

No need to do any of that. Just use KStars and select LX200 Basic in your profile and then under "Connections", select your port.

Hi,

thank you so much for your reply.
I've just found where the button 'Connection' was : in the Indi Control Panel :)

Now the error is : "[ERROR] Error communication with telescope. "
My mount is with the FS2, version 1.21.

Hope you'll found to help me.

There is already a driver for Astro-Electronic FS-2, why don't you use that one?

Also, check my signature for how to enable logging which is required when you post support questions.

Thank you Jasem,

I have seen the FS2 driver B) ...I need glasses.

I will try as soon as possible.
I haven't understood your sentence (I'm french) : " Also, check my signature for how to enable logging which is required when you post support questions. "
What means "my signature"

Regards.

It's the little area under your post where users put their information like system specs..etc.

The logging is the most important thing to diagnose issues.
