Having started just recently with INDI, I was surprised how easy everything works when following the guides. Thanks for everyone contributing to this!
My project is to get a 30-year-old Meade LX50 to run. Although it has no goto capability, It does have a serial port that allows RA/Dec readout. Although I can connect to the mount, I cannot get the RA/Dec information into EKOS. I believe it is related to the required baud rate of 300.
The Magellan II manual specifies the baud rate for the serial port to be 300, but the lowest selectable value for the LX200 Autostar driver (the one to be used as I have learned) is 9600. Is there any way to get the driver to accept the much lower value?
There isn't really a standard way to do this from the serial connection plugin. You can perhaps override it and send 300 and at least get your driver up and running. If all works, we can have a method to add this.
I wonder if it wouldn't be hard to setup a simple piece of software to act as a virtual serial port and bridge the 9600 to the 300. I haven't done this for awhile so not sure what the best bet under Linux would be.
