Thanks Chris. I had already seen that, however I was hoping that by some fluke another driver might also provide support for the Xagyl wheel. In any case, it looks like the INDI core developer is now onto the case!
The xagyl filter wheel aside, i've been able to connect to all my other gear (SBIG ST10, NEQ6, arduino focuser and backup QHY5L-II guider) remotely using EKOS/KStars running on my inside PC and a indiserver running on a RPi 2B outside in the obs
