<title>Description</title>
|
|
<para>&kstars; allows you to configure and control astronomical instruments
|
|
such as telescopes and focusers via the INDI protocol.
|
|
<command>indiserver</command> is a server that sits between the &kstars;
|
|
user interface and the low-level hardware drivers.</para>
|
|
<para>The <acronym>INDI</acronym> server is a network server, int hat either
|
|
local or remote clients may connect to it to control astronomical
|
|
instruments. The <acronym>INDI</acronym> server must be running on the
|
|
machine that is physically connected to the astronomical instruments.</para>
|
|
<note><para>There is usually no need to run the <acronym>INDI</acronym>
|
|
server directly. Using the &kstars; device manager, you can set up
|
|
astronomical instruments and start or stop the <acronym>INDI</acronym>
|
|
server all from within &kstars;</para></note>
|
|
<para>Much more detailed information is available in the &kstars; handbook,
|
|
as described below.</para>
|
|
<para>&kstars; is a graphical desktop planetarium for &kde;, and forms part
|
|
of the &kde; edutainment module.</para>
