Hello,

Thank you for the pointer. Rules are not necessary if a driver exists. The use would be under accessories.

I can only find the INDIGO driver. Is it the same as INDI?
How does INDIGO work with Ekos?

It's included in the indi-asi package, it can be found as ASI ST4 under Aux when creating profile in Ekos. INDIGO is similar, but not the same as INDI, different implementation, but works with Ekos and can be mixed with INDI with some limitations.

It doesn't seem to work either, I get a 'Unable to estabish: +ASI ST4' error, even though its properly connected (I also tried rebooting while connected)

Hello,

Ouch. Then the driver is not recognizing the new ASI product. Back to the Rule game again. The last we were at was writing a new rule based on HID. I posted the new rule. I would like to see if it worked. I do not have the hardware. This the new rule cleaned up to be strictliy HID.

# ZWO USBST4 adapater

I tried the rule (copied the new rule in the old file), but there is still no ttyACM port in /dev

Hello,

Use: lsusb -v -d 03C3:CCCC. I would like to see the output.

Hello,

Depending on the output with LSUSB, I am offering as solution to test. This comes from the output of our previous discussion, 97-hidtohci.rules, and 99-asi.rules.

Hello,

Yes. I have changed somethings after further review. Use this version.

I changed the rule, reloaded udevadm and rebooted, but still no ttyACM0 port visible. lsusb just shows the vendor and product id (03c3:cccc)

Hello,

I wished this could be fixed. Ok. I just recently noticed how both of my RS232 devices were not running fully. I could see evidence of partial running.

Open the rule and replace its content with this.

# this file is for ZWO equipment
ACTION=="remove", GOTO="ZWO_END"
SUBSYSTEM!="usb*", GOTO="ZWO_END"

ENV{DEVTYPE}!="usb_device", GOTO="ZWO_END"

# ZWO USBST4 adapater
ATTRS{idVendor}=="03c3",ATTRS{idProduct}=="cccc",ENV{ID_MM_DEVICE_IGNORE}="1"
ATTRS{idVendor}=="03c3",ATTRS{idProduct}=="cccc",ENV{MTP_NO_PROBE}="1"
ACTION=="add",SUBSYSTEM=="tty",KERNEL=="ttyACM0",ATTRS{idVendor}=="03c3",ATTRS{idProduct}=="cccc",SYMLINK+="zwousbst4",MODE="0666

LABEL="ZWO_END"

This setup to what I use now. This works for me and my devices.

Use: sudo udevadm control --reload-rules
Use: sudo udevadm trigger

Next command tests the port.

Use: sudo udevadm test -a add $(udevadm info -q path -n /dev/ttyACM0)
