I'm having some issues and have to admit that I'm just getting back to Linux after some time away. I have set up an Astroberry and all seems well except I cannot connect to my focuser I get an error as seen in the screen shot. everything is connected to a USB 2.0 hub which consists of the mount, a camera, and a focuser. The wireless keyboard and mouse is connected to the second USB 2.0 port on the Pi 4. Nothing is connected to the USB 3.0 ports at this time. Any advice would be appreciated. I also tried to get the Linux app from here to work but it does not launch, no error or anything. I do get an error that it cannot execute a binary file if I try to launch it from a terminal.
Thanks for the reply as always. I have ekos and INDI as it comes installed
as part of the Astroberry image. When I set up ekos the focuser is in the
drop down list of hardware already. I took this as if the driver was
already included as part of the ekos package. I will attempt the
installation of the driver to be sure.
the myFocuserPro2 INDI driver should work straight out of the box without any issues.
All you need do is set the driver and enter the control settings to make it go.
The best place for asking about the INDI driver etc is on the INDI forum. I personally do not use INDI so probably this is the extent of my knowledge re INDI
Cheers

Hi
You need to get the source for the Linux program, then install Lazarus Pascal and then recompile the source code for your PI.
If you are running ekos or INDI just use the INDI driver for myFocuserPro2
