Hi there. I've got my HEQ5 mount connected via an EQDirect cable to the USB port of my Linux machine running Indiserver. However, when I try to connect to it from a Kstars/Ekos client it complains that it can't read from the tty. I've verified that the port name and baud rate are correct.
What I'd like to do is just open minicom locally on the same port and send something to prove that it is working. Can someone point me at the protocol that the HEQ5 port employs, or advise me on some, preferably ASCII, character/string I can send that will elicit a well known response?
Here's the error output, in case anyone can spot what I'm doing wrong:
