DIY AstroEQ / Re: AstroEQ + INDI tracking problem

« on: February 19, 2018, 16:50:47 »

Are you using the latest version of the firmware? (V8.11)

There were some major fixes to the AstroEQ firmware in V8.11, specifically related to fixing a myriad of problems with INDI.

I compile firmware from https://github.com/TCWORLD/AstroEQ/tree/master/AstroEQ-Firmware in AtmelStudio. I think it's latest version.

DIY AstroEQ / AstroEQ + INDI tracking problem

« on: February 19, 2018, 05:42:15 »

Hello!
I'm sorry if I duplicate this question. I have a DIY AstroEQ with latest firmware. And I have INDI Server on my Raspberry PI 3. I use latest build INDI (Compiled from source). Tracking starts only if I click left or right navigation button. I finded same problem in http://www.indilib.org/forum/mounts/1306-eqmod-tracking-problems.html. I check build and it contains a fix. But problem still exists =/ Who solved this problem?

P.S. Sorry for my bad English...

Hi,

I found a glitch in the config utility which was causing the issue - one of the calculations was iterating too far causing it to ignore perfectly usable IVal options.

I've attached a patched version of the config utility (firmware is unchanged).

Hopefully it should no longer produce the error.

Kind Regards,
Tom.

Additionally if you are on the high end of IVal, it means the resolution of the mount is going to be very poor - the DEC axis will move about 3 arcseconds each microstep.

Many thanks!

DIY AstroEQ / Question about error "IVal must be <1200"

« on: February 08, 2018, 06:40:53 »

Hello! I have a DIY Astroeq based on Arduino Mega. Motor Nema 17 1.8' and A4988 drivers. Gear ratio = 2. My mount is EQ3-2. When i try to upload config i get an error 'Ival must be <1200' on DEC (my calculated value is ~1380). I can not understand what this limitation. I edited this value to 1400 and build the projects (firmware and UI). After that I was able to load the configuration.
What will affect IVal >1200 on DEC?
Thanks
