limaiem created a new topic ' using 2 focusers of myfocuserpro2 in one setup' in the forum. 3 years ago

Dear all,

I have a question related to the possibility of using 2 focusers of myfocuserpro2 type in one setup with INDI and EKOS.
I am trying to do it in this way:

Step 1: in terminal start indiserver and 2 instances of the myfocuserpro2 drivers

indiserver -vvv indi_eqmod_telescope indi_qhy_ccd indi_canon_ccd indi_myfocuserpro2_focus indi_astroberry_focuser
Step 2: in Ekos in focuser field
fill myfocuserpro2
Step 3: Start Ekos
Step 4: in Indi control pannel, select the target UBS port (let’s say USB0) to get the needed myfocuserpro2 connected.

Is there another way to do it ?
I tried to configure EKOS to use the 2nd focuser by filling AUX 1 field but without success.

I am thinking about using the interacting driver starting like below to able to give different names to the focusers to be able to differentiate them in EKOS
echo start /usr/bin/indi_myfocuserpro2_focus -n \"Focuser1\" -s \"/home/xxxx/.indi/MyFocuserPro2_config.xml\">INDIFIFO
echo start /usr/bin/indi_myfocuserpro2_focus -n \"Focuser2\" -s \"/home/xxxx/.indi/MyFocuserPro2_Add_config\">INDIFIFO

Someone one have an idea about to manages 2 focusers in more elegant way ?

thank you !

Hi,

I get it from here:
launchpad.net/~mutlaqja/+archive/ubuntu/...field.series_filter=

for my case i took the : libqhy - 21.2.11+unstable~202102160314~ubuntu18.04.1

inside this lib in the file CMakeLists.txt we can read:

# QHY SDK 21.2.11
set(LIBQHY_VERSION "20.2.11")
set(LIBQHY_SOVERSION "20")

in your case you need the : libqhy - 21.2.11+unstable~202102160312~ubuntu20.04.1

I hope this will help you !

I fixed the problem.
I managed to upgrade the SDK version in the RPI4.
I did it in a dirty way :
sudo rm -rf /usr/lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/libqhyccd.so*
sudo apt-get remove indi-full indi-qhy libqhy
sudo apt-get install indi-full indi-qhy libqhy

now I have the SDK 21.1.19 version on my RPI4 and all is working fine.
thanks.

Dear all,

Hope you are doing well.
I have two systems using INDI functionalities. I have an issue with one of the two systems. The issue is related to a QHY 5-II camera.

First setup

  • LINUX64 (ubuntu 18.04) architecture.
  • INDI last version lightly
  • INDI_QHY_CCD version 2.7
  • SDK 21.1.19 version
Second setup
  • AARCH64 (ubuntu 18.04) architecture
  • INDI last version lightly
  • INDI_QHY_CCD version 2.7
  • SDK 20.12.23 version
Everything is fine with the First setup
First setup
  • QHY_CCD_TEST: success
  • GETTING A PICTURE FROM EKOS : success
I have a problem with the second setup
Second setup
  • QHY_CCD_TEST: segmentation fault with "GetQHYCCDSingleFrame failure, error: -1"
  • GETTING A PICTURE FROM EKOS: fail with "GetQHYCCDSingleFrame failure, error: -1"

I think the problem is coming from the SDK version I am using in the AARCH64 setup (RPI4). I am right ?
The problem seems similar to the one described here: www.indilib.org/forum/ccds-dslrs/5701-qh...error-1.html?start=0 and also to this one github.com/indilib/indi/issues/1059

I tried to strace the execution of the binary QHY_CCD_TEST to understand the issue without a success.

I am unable to find a newer version of the SDK I can install on the RPI4.

Someone is able to get QHY 5-II camera working on AARCH64 setup (RPI4) ?

thank you.
