This INDIdriver interacts with a mount controller using the Skywatcher Protocol through a serial link. It can directly drive Skywatcher and similar mounts through a serial port after a conversion of signal levels (see EQDIRECT interface), or any other mount hardware which uses this protocol. This project is similar in its goal to the EQMOD/EQASCOM project, but for the Linux/INDI world. Thus the name of the INDI device is "EQMod Mount", and the driver executable is indi_eqmod_telescope.

***** Refer to the libindi library *****
The driver is now included in the libindi library as a 3rd party driver (indi-eqmod).
