Hi! I've just started to test Astroberry in Raspberi pi 3 b+.
It's great! I have test ok almost my whole configuration: sbig + eqmod mount.
But I've a problem with qhy5 detection.

sudo qhy_ccd_test reports no qhyccd connected.

astroberry@astroberry:~$ uname -a
Linux astroberry.local 4.14.78-v7+ #1156 SMP Tue Oct 23 14:34:39 BST 2018 armv7l armv7l armv7l GNU/Linux
astroberry@astroberry:~$ sudo qhy_ccd_test
[sudo] password for astroberry:
QHY Test CCD using SingleFrameMode, Version: 1.00
QHYCCD | qhyccd.cpp | InitQHYCCDResource | START
QHYCCD | qhyccd.cpp | InitQHYCCDResource | END
SDK resources initialized.
ScanQHYCCD
QHYCCD | QHYCCD.CPP SCANQHYCCD | start
ScanQHYCCD numdev=0
QHYCCD | QHYCCD.CPP ScanQHYCCD | finished. Return nid=0
No QHYCCD camera found, please check USB or power.

Any idea? Could I force ccd connection?

Regards, and Thanks in advance.
Rafa.

Hi, finally it's fixed!
There was a problem with /lib/udev/rules.d.
I've added a line with the lsusb command result.

Hi,
I’m a new user of astroberry.
I have been ‘designed’ a box with big Li-Fe battery 12V and all-in-one connectors to provide energy to all devices (apn, raspberry Pi 3, motors). With a little telescope 150x750, this set-up is very light and simple to move.
Thanks for Astroberry !
But i have some troubles. I don’t find solution on this website :
1) when i connect 1 time on my personnal Network (wifi), the vpa did not start even if my personnal box is switch off. I do not find simple solution to ´suppress’ or forget this wifi connection and the vpa do not start. Have you got a solution or i have to modify several files (vap_conveniant (?), wlan_config...) ?
I want to connect on my wifi to be able to update software...
2) I find the way to change language and time format but if i modify the date and time, it restart at 2016/02/11 each time i reboot. Nether the graphical interface nor the command Sudo timedatectl... operate.
Have you got a solution ?
Thank you for Astroberry

I had problem with creating acess point too ( I dont know if I had old version) .
I fix the problem by creating access point in command line with the nmcli command. I followed how to do on google

Hi,

I am planning to use Astroberry and have a few questions.:)
I want to control my mount using an EQDIR cable or an EQDIR Bluetooth adapter. Both are bypassing the hand control of the mount which is a Skywatcher NEQ6 Pro.
I am currently using either an EQDIR cable or an EQDIR Bluetooth connection and EQMOD on a Windows 10 notebook to perform this.
It is more important that the EQDIR cable works as Astroberry will be attached to mount anyway. The control is planned with an Android tablet.

I am also using a Bluetooth Gamepad to control the mount moves manually (i.e. for star alignment). Will this work as well?

Hi, EQDIR cable works perfectly with INDI EQMod driver.
Bluetooth works well with the latest Astroberry Server and Raspberry Pi 3B. It does not work with Raspberry Pi 3B+ with a built-in bluetooth (firmware issue?) but should work with a bluetooth USB dongle. I hope that it will be fixed with Ubuntu 18.04 soon.
The same applies to Gamepad - just load Joystick driver and enable it with your mount/focuser driver.

I have setup astroberry and I am not seeing Ekos being part of the programs.

I connected an ASI178 camera. PHD2 can connect to it and shows an image
Other programs like CCDCiel do not allow to setup the camera. There is not selection in the camera drop down.

Seems I am having some strange behavior.
