I decided to pull out my iOptron SmartEQ Pro and ZEQ25GT mounts to do some light work while controlling the mounts via INDI. I know this worked properly before, but this time, I ended up having lots of communication problems. I tried multiple cables, hand controllers and USB to Serial adapters and the logs continuously received messages like this:
2018-04-12T18:42:33: [ERROR] Timeout error
2018-04-12T18:42:28: [ERROR] Only received #10 bytes, expected 7.
2018-04-12T18:42:27: [ERROR] Timeout error
2018-04-12T18:42:22: [ERROR] Only received #10 bytes, expected 7.
During these errors, the mount would not respond properly. Does anyone have any idea why this could be happening with these two iOptron mounts?
