Last night I did some tests with Kstars using the "AZ-GTI Alt-Az WiFi" driver and the "Synscan alt/az" driver. Both behaved in the same way: the sync now works, the mount accepts the sync command and updates its coordinates, but often the slewing fails to bring the subject in the FOV...the mount continues to "go around" until the plate solving fails...sometimes it gets closer, sometimes less...forward the tracking doesn't work, the mount doesn't follow the object, even though it is active from the indi driver. These are the setup operations I performed:
-Positioning the mount in "home position" (horizontally level and facing north)
-Powering up the mount and connecting to Kstars which displays it in the correct position.
- Unparking and goto from planetarium.
- the mount moves towards the subject but the position reached is wrong by several degrees...anyway the plate solving works and brings the mount back close to the correct coordinates. At this point the various subsequent platesolving attempts to center the subject without ever succeeding completely (the subject remains in the FOV but is never centered).
