Connect your Raspberry Pi to your PTS mount via bluetooth.
To get the MAC address of the bluetooth in your PTS mount, in terminal run:
hcitool scan
Replace the MAC address in the file "btcomm.sh", you may run the file from within the PTSrpi app.
To make the application executable, in terminal, change directory to the Desktop and change the file permissions:
cd Dekstop
chmod +x PTSrpi.py
When double clicking on PTSrpi.py, choose "Execute in Terminal" so you can connect to your PTS mount. "Connect" needs a running Terminal to work. Click "FS" to come out of FullScreen and monitor the terminal there. Note, it may take several attempts to connect. If you click the BlueTooth icon, you should see a greem tick next to the BT device when it's connected.
