Hello,
I bought a DMFC to use it with a DC Motorfocus on Stellarmate
When I switch to DC Motor mode I can control the Motor via the knob and via the standalone App but not in Stellarmate/EKOS
When I Set it to Stepper Mode in EKOS the Motor moves, but it is not working correctly, of cause, as it is a DC Motor
I am quite frustated, as I just bought the DMFC for the reason, that my ERTL USB Controller did not Support INDI
Any help would be highly appreciated
DMFC with DC Motor and Stellarmate
Re: DMFC with DC Motor and Stellarmate
I have done some more investigation:
According to the Interface documenation (http://pegasusastro.com/wp-content/uplo ... -Table.pdf) the G commands should be used for relative movements.
The indi driver seem to have implemented the M command for absolute as well as for the relative movements. (https://github.com/indilib/indi/blob/ma ... r/dmfc.cpp)
I could imagine, that the dmfc might reject M commands when Motortype is DC
Unfortunately I don't know how to correct this in the driver and bring it to Stellarmate
