Hello,
I have found a problem with my setup, when driving a HEQ5 mount with the indi eqmod driver.
It is totally repeatable and It will lead to a physical crash when operated on remote !
* connected the eqmod driver
* activate the tracking (sideral rate)
* Within the motion control section, ask for a motion (to north)
The mount starts moving as expected
* Ask the driver to stop the motion
The stop does not occur. At that point, driver logs show read timeouts.
The eqmod driver won't disconnect (timeout error disconnecting)!. If the driver (process) is killed/restarted it can't establish connection (handshake fails).
The mount will continue to move at the specified rate until powered off !
Logs of the driver are attached.
I use a recent GIT snapshot of the driver, with direct connection to the mount.
