Request Support for a new INDI driver
driver development

Did you make sure there is no existing driver for your device? Please check [supported devices portal](https://indilib.org/devices]. Please confirm you verified no drivers exist for your device.

Provide link to product page Provide URL to the product description and details.

Describe device family All INDI devices fall under one or more of the following categories:

  • Mounts
  • Cameras (CCDs + CMOS)
  • Focusers
  • Filter Wheels
  • Domes
  • Weather Stations
  • Adaptive Optics
  • Receivers
  • Spectrographs
  • Auxiliary (Anything else that does not fit above).

Provide device communication protocol All devices use some sort of communication language between them and the host system. This could be called Command Set or SDK. It is best to provide a link to a document or PDF with such details from the manufacutrer. It needs to include the following information:

  • Communication Method: Serial, USB, TCP...etc. along with the connection parameters.
  • Communication Protocol: Detailed description of the language used to communicate with the device along with examples if available.

Hardware Sample Would it be possible to send the developer a sample hardware unit to develop the driver? If that's not possible, would it be possible to setup a remote environment with the devie attached?
