from the following sources:
·
KStars Updates All Devices
: KStars time and location is the primary source and all
connected devices (mounts..etc) are synchronized to KStars time and location. When
using SM App, it’s recommended to leave this option as is.
·
Mount Updates KStars
: The mount time and location are used to update KStars time
and location. Some mounts are equipped with internal or external GPS, KStars does
NOT connect to these mount-specific GPS dongles. Instead, KStars communicates
with the mount via the Handset/WiFi to query time and location information and then
uses them as the source.
·
GPS Updates KStars
: When using a dedicated externa GPS dongle, select this
option to ensure the GPS dongle is the master source for both time and location. When
Ekos detects a GPS device, it will prompt the user to switch to it as the master time &
location source.
Therefore, you must select which source is the most accurate and reliable for time &
location information. By default, KStars is the master source for time and location data.
WARNING
Turn off DST / Daylight Saving settings in the handset as this could
interfere with correct time settings.
Web Manager
StellarMate Web Manager is a simple Web Application to manage
INDI server
and control
StellarMate. It is accessible as long as there is a network connection
(WiFi/Ethernet/Hotspot) between you and StellarMate. For example, if you are in inside the
house with a PC/Mac/Tablet, you could use your browser to remotely manage StellarMate
drivers.
It supports multiple driver profiles along with optional custom remote drivers. It can be used
to start INDI server locally, and also to connect or chain to remote INDI servers. You can use
it to Restart or Shutdown the unit, and to connect to VNC frontend from the web.
Furthermore, the Web Manager provides a
RESTful API
where you can issue simple calls
to start and stop INDI services over the network.
With the Web Manager, you can access StellarMate
Serial Port Assistant
and
VNC
.
Furthermore, you can also restart and shutdown INDI from the interface.
