Flat box question

I have the Cover/Calibrator work done. I’ll go ahead and release it…should be out in about 20 minutes.

Have fun,
Jared

It seems I could leverage ASCOM Remote and ASCOM Alpaca to do the network comms to the Raspberry PI, but then I would have to write an entire REST server and Alpaca protocol stack on the Raspberry Pi side. I actually have the expertise to do so, but it’s not worth my time.

Easiest would be to write a custom ASCOM Cover/Calibrator driver on the Windows side that simply tunnels the Altinak commands to a TCP socket. This way, I would only need to keep using set2net on the Raspberry Pi.

SGP with cover calibrator support has been released…have at it.

Thanks! I’ll let you know how it works out. I have to set up a Windows dev environment and get up to speed with ASCOM. It’s been ages since I compiled anything in Windows.
