*WARNING*** newbie I have Gpredict controlling a rotor via hamlib. I need to enter the following data each time to setup hamlib before opening Gpredict.
rotctld -m 202 -r /dev/ttyACM0 -s 9600 -C timeout=500 -vvvvv
I want to setup a shell script icon on the desktop that will enter this data when selected and then open Gpredict. Is this possible?
Kent,
Try adding:
rotctld -m 202 -r /dev/ttyACM0 -s 9600 -C timeout=500 &
to your /etc/rc.local file.
Suggestion is NOT to use -vvvvv as the additional debug data can confuse GPredict. The & is to force the daemon to run in the background.
That way you don't have to do anything, it all just happens when you boot up.
Hope this helps/works.
Cameron, I finally got everything in sinc and working. Thanks for your help. Kent
