uhoh...misunderstanding. These things happen.
No need to work around. I just (also) can't test onstep's focuser because I use an external driver. I emulated moonlite when I made it and my focuser works fine like that. I may choose to integrate it at some point to reduce usb load. We will have to wait for someone who does have the onstep focuser wired in before we can get a good test on it.
The tab did show up anyway ad looks nice.
Here's my messy report from last night. I'm planning to redo the test.
The control panel should show park at start (and cold start/reset) getting the status at startup should fix this even if the user has
"#define AUTOSTART_TRACKING_ON"
Setting tracking on or starting alignment procedure should unpark the mount and track sidereal.
Cold start should also reset alignment buttons and status.
(stayed on align and status at alignment completed when park clicked - scope did home)
I have a 2-10 second lag on commands I had not noticed previously, turned off debug to see if it helped.
Wrongly shows parked in ekos during alignment.
1 star align worked okay once I waited out the slew command.
Park returned home but failed to disable the motors?
Mount control "pad" shows error in status on opening during 3 star alignment - related to below i think.
after slewing to second star, could not click align. control panel Button already down. (something broke I think.)
This may not matter but PEC might be set to off by defult or maybe remember the previous setting.
I wonder how to store things in the save files. That would fix it too.
unit did not complete second slew from dubhe to capella
After doing meridan flip, stopped part way and showed error but no status reported as I had turned off
debug mode to see if it would speed things up.
-claims cannot stop slew to any command, cannot abort.
--this is my weird thing happened for the day.
could not cold start after error.
...it got late. I'd like do another run this evening if i'm not cleaning up water in the basement again and see if I can narrow down the issue.
I just realized that the flip probably caused the error. I should choose closer stars?
