Simple idea:
To fully automate startup of INDI drivers in Ekos I need to load the setup twice:

• Before connect - to load connection params
• After connect - to load the rest of parameters

Would it be possible to change the options in Ekos config to have following options:

• Never
• On connection
• On load & on connection
• Allways load defaults

I think that the "on load" option is not necessary.
This should not be that difficult. How about it Jasem?

Not necessarily because "Connection" params are taken care of in INDI drivers. If you have any INDI driver not loading connection parameter on start-up (before connect), let me know.

Ehem... Mine is not loading them.
I.e. It loads default connection params properly - and that is fine as they are set to default scope configuration.
But my scope is configured differently - and I assume someone may want as well the scope to connect to
their observatory AP instead of creating its own network (which is not very good). So the connection data must
be loaded and it needs to be different from the defaults.
Am I missing something?

Which driver are you talking about exactly? and what are the properties not loaded up from config on startup?

Sorry. Nexstar evolution/AUX driver.
If it is supposed to work it is probably my fault. I am pretty new to the driver development.
So, is it supposed to load the saved setup on start-up of the driver?
What about default values we may want to be there?
So should I invoke load function on driver init?
The properties are IP address and port for the mount.

Yeah I added the necessary statements to the driver, svn up.

Great - thanks.
I should probably study the developer docs more carefully.
