indi camera ST-4 guiding about phd2 HOT 7 CLOSED

Nacho, if I understand this correctly you have a driver that works including 
guiding. If so, Brilliant!. if you wish I would be happy to test it here too.

Hi Brian,

Yes,  I comfirm you that my modified PHD is capable of guiding using my QHY5 
INDI connected and 'on-camera' mount. If you want to test feel free to contact 
me at ignacio.mas at gmail.com

In the meantime I realize that standard PHD also works without any 
modifications. You have to select in the INDI menu your camera as telescope and 
then choose INDI telescope in the mount menu instead of on-camera.

Cheers
Nacho

Hi Nacho,

I'm the co-owner of the following project 
http://code.google.com/p/eq-polar-alignment/
Just done a search on Google for Open PHD and guiding and found your post here, 
you're saying that you've successfully auto-guided using Open PHD + QHY5 ?

Are you able to share your modified code please?
Would it work with http://www.qhyccd.com/QHY_IMG.html ?

I'd love to get a Raspberry PI + open PHD running... :-)

Hi  Stephane,

I am not sure that my code is what you need. I mean, my code only fix on-camera 
guide option for INDI cameras in PHD. Indeed this fix is not needed because you 
can obtain the same result choosing your INDI camera as your "telescope" 
instead of on-camera option.

The QHY5 driver itself is provided by INDILIB project 
http://indilib.org/index.php?title=QHY. I suppose IMG cameras works also with 
this driver but to be truly I don't know. I hope this help you.

Great idea the polar alignment project!

Hi Nacho,

Thanks for replying, I use PHD on XP and it works well, but I have no clue yet 
on this INDI stuff :(
Will do more reading.

Given all the changes for phd2, I'm marking all PHD1 unowned bugs as "WontFix". 
If somebody objects, I can undo it.
