.SH NAME

lx200generic \- LX200 Generic driver for INDI telescope control
|
||
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
||
|
.B lx200generic
|
||
|
[ \fB\-v\fP ]
|
||
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
||
|
KStars allows you to configure
|
||
|
and control astronomical instruments such as telescopes and focusers via
|
||
|
the INDI protocol. \fBlx200generic\fP is a device driver for supporting
|
||
|
particular types of external hardware.
|
||
|
.PP
|
||
|
You should normally not need to run this driver directly. Instead you
|
||
|
should use KStars to configure and operate your astronomical instruments.
|
||
|
Most operations can be found under the Devices menu within KStars.
|
||
|
.PP
|
||
|
KStars will start the INDI server internally, and the INDI server will
|
||
|
in turn start this device driver.
|
||
|
.PP
|
||
|
Much more detailed information can be found in the KStars Handbook, as
|
||
|
described below.
|
||
|

|
||
|
KStars is a graphical desktop planetarium for KDE, and forms part of

The KStars Handbook contains detailed information on how to use INDI for
|
||
|
telescope control. You can read this handbook in the KDE Help Centre.
|
||
|
Alternatively you can enter the URL
|
||
|
\fIhelp:/kstars/indi.html\fP
|
||
|
directly into konqueror or you can run
|
||
|
`\fIkhelpcenter help:/kstars/indi.html\fP'
|
||
|
from the command-line.
|
||
|
.PP
|
||
|
If the KDE Help Centre is not installed then you can install the package
|
||
|
\fIkdeedu-doc-html\fP and read this documentation in HTML format from
|
||
|
\fI/opt/kde3/share/doc/kde/HTML/en/kstars/indi.html\fP.
