    by Julian Mullins who uses it on a Mac

    and also
    https://sourceforge.net/p/arduinofocuscontrollerpro/discussion/general/thread/68a3d8ac/
    on the discussion board here where Milen Velinov has it working under INDI
    Note that to use it under INI, you use the ASCOM driver - it is moonlite compatible so select it as the moonlite driver

    Be sure to do the reset circuit (it is a capacitor and switch that connects the RST to 5V. For mal operation as a moonlite focuser it is connected (switch ON) but if you want to upload new firmware to the controller the switch must be OFF. Once finished uploading new firmware, turn switch back to ON for normal operation Information is page13 of pdf.

    Cheers

    Yes, it will work with moonlite driver

    • anther issue with easydrive adjusting
      Yes, with the easydriver sometimes it makes a sound. When adjusted right it still makes sound.

    If easydriver is ok at 1.6-2.5v and work fine and stepper move ok, then it is ok. Even if it make sound. I also have one easydriver. I adjust that fine, it make sound.

    Other easydriver I have - that has no sound. I adjust it same, but this one have sound. I dont know why. But it work fine. So maybe this issue with some easydriver board?

    This is why I like DRV8825. Every one I adjust same. But no sound with DRV8825 so I only use that now.

    Hope this helps

    If it working ok but make sound I think that is ok for easydriver.

    Cheers
    Robert
