Steve,

Not sure about the old driver, you can likely compile and install it yourself, but let's see if we can get the V2 driver working for you ... I use it all the time (with my CP3, but I'm sure it was verified to be working with CP4 and CP5).

Can you connect to it with KStars/Ekos? If that shows an issue, can you send a full kstars log of your failed connections (make sure you have verbose logging on and logging for the mount driver checked). The usual issue for things like that it is trying to connect to the wrong port. E.g. if you are using a FTDI cable, you need to make sure you have the right /dev/ttyUSB0 or /dev/ttyUSB1 etc. If you are using ethernet with your CP4, I think there was some network protocol choice. If you don't get it working from that, can you also send screenshots of your INDI mount control tabs (e.g. Main Control and Connection)?

Mike Hanson at Astro-Physics has also verified all this works and can be a resource to help you.
