Mesu200 question

[wornish]

Anyone using the Mesu200 with KStars/Ekos or other non PC based astronomy package?

All I can find on here are users running on Windows with Ascom drivers or SGPro.

There is this. but I'm not at all sure it's well-supported.  I get the impression that INDI drivers aren't really a priority for Sitech.

Thanks for the link.  Sitech equipment certainly has a very good reputation but I do get the feeling that they don't move forward or keep up with technical advances very quickly.  Looking at the references on their site the majority are from the 1990's and some of the links are dead , so makes me nervous about committing serious money.

But the recently announced MesuE200 is just so tempting!

Hi Dave

Dan at Sitech has done work on the INDI driver. It only needs the INDI installer setup to be sorted out.

Probably 6 monthes ago I tried to contact the INDI developer a few times as he needed a Raspbery pi/Mesu setup that he could Remote into to set things up and check everything worked.

I got no replies to my contacts. So it is ready to go if someone can get togeather with the INDI developer. Or so I was told.

Because to Mesu driver was so long in comming I have got more and more intangled with windows😕
