Description
INDIGO is a framework for astronomy and astrophotography designed to be compatible with macOS and iOS, with the aim of helping amateurs manage various devices.
INDIGO Server, as the name suggests, is a server for the INDIGO framework, meant to be used together with other specialized tools. It is compatible with software created by CloudMakers as well as other vendors. All INDIGO drivers available for macOS are included, and the app features a GUI control panel.
When launching the application for the first time, you will be able to configure various connection properties, enable or disable certain INDIGO drivers, and set up serial ports for the drivers that use them.
The app's main window is a control panel that allows you to manage the properties of all hosted devices. After a driver has been loaded, simply navigate to the device tree to make the desired modifications, and then click Set.
Please note that some of the built-in drivers are not supported on M1 processors. To use these drivers, you will have to run the application using Rosetta. If you don't need any of these drivers, just run the app normally. You will be notified if a certain driver is not supported natively on Apple Silicon processors.
