Been getting to know KStars/Ekos better and have a question regarding the difference between the controls/config settings in INDI and EKOS. In some instances they seem to do the same thing and I'm not sure if I should be configuring in INDI control panel or EKOS.

Thanks in advance

INDI Control Panel presents the driver properties as they are exactly.

Ekos controls are frontend to the INDI properties to make some common operations easier to control.

Thanks Jason.

So can I ignore the values in the Indi panel and just use the Ekos front end?

Yes, unless some property does not exist in Ekos and you need to set it directly yourself.
