Anyone know where I can find QHY8 support in INDI...


 

It's listed as a supported device, yet I cannot find the drivers. Apparently once compiled you can run it from the indi_qhy_ccd binary but I cannot locate it.

All versions on sourceforge do not include it. Anybody know where else I can look? I am running Slackware 13.37 32bit.


 

Ah I think I found it in the svn trunk
.


 

I'm a little confused. On it explains that INDI supports "all of the QHY family of cameras" so I'm assuming the QHY8 is included. However, if I take a look at the README file included in the indi-qhy package

root@blackbook:~566> pwd
/root/indi-qhy
root@blackbook:~567> ls
AUTHORS CMakeFiles/ COPYING.LIB Makefile cmake_install.cmake firmware/ indi_qhy_ccd* qhy5_driver.h
CMakeCache.txt CMakeLists.txt INSTALL README cmake_modules/ indi_qhy.xml qhy5_driver.c qhy_ccd.c

This package provides the INDI driver for QHY CCDs (currently only QHY5)

In the INSTALL file:
gcc -DQHY5_TEST -Wall -o qhy5 qhy5_driver.c -lusb

And there is only a qhy5_driver.h header file, so I'm thinking this will only work with QHY5.

In any case I tried it. I ran "indiserver indi_qhy_ccd". Under the INDI panel I tried to connect but it could not, suggesting that the power of the camera was off, which it was not.

Has anybody gotten the QHY8 to work with Xephem?
