Does anyone know if Planewave offers an INDI driver (or plans to release one) for their direct drive mounts, such as the L-350?

I can contact them directly if nobody knows offhand.

Thank you,
Ollie

Please go ahead and contact them. AFAIK, there is no INDI driver.

Okay, I have submitted a ticket with Planewave. I'll report back once I hear from them.

They do support ASCOM. Isn’t it possible to use the ASCOM to INDI bridge?

I'll also check their ASCOM support. Meanwhile, Matt at Planewave allowed me to share this info with the forum:

Hi Ollie,

Thanks for reaching out. We do not currently have INDI drivers for our mounts, but it is on our list for features to add. If you are interested in writing your own software we do offer a custom programming interface that can let you control the mount via a different machine on the network. i.e. using a Linux based machine to control mount software that's running on a Windows PC.

Best regards,

Matt Dieterich
Technical Services Manager

Ok, I'll guess we'll have to wait until they release a proper INDI driver. The more customers demand INDI drivers, the better. So a call out for all Planeweave users out there to email and call support regarding this.
