Hello,
From yesterday to today, the Control mount icon has moved from Ekos to Sky screen.
I can't figure out the interest of this - I would rather consider this a problem, as it is not possible anymore to monitor the target while trying to center it.
Where it was until yesterday :


And where it is as of today :

Any reason for doing so ?
Rgrds,

That's fine, I wonder why I had set it to Mount once, probably a misclick while trying to adjust something else.
Thank-you for helping.

Well, then I feel lost.
I just have one imager and the mount. No extra device dedicated to guiding.
So, shouldn't I set guiding to none ?
Also, as I don't use extra guiding device, the train is the same in all tabs.
I'll check as soon as I can take photos again, but I think I had to do this way, otherwise it did not work at the time I set it up.
Then, I don't modify anything that works, until I face situations where it fails.

I modified the train so the guide device is set to "--".
It was previously set to "Mount".
Thanks to both.

Honnestly, I don't know for sure. What is certain, is that the mount did hang during capture, two times : the night before and the night when I took the screenshot.
Both times I was not able to understand the reason. I first thought of problem with meridian flip, but none of the targets would have needed this.
I'm facing some issues which I'm unable to determine whether it is because of my misunderstanding or they are real.
I tried to reproduce one that happened twice, last night and three nights ago, but unfortunately, there, in my living room, all worked correctly.
I'll open a ticket when it happens next time.
When I go on the field, I hope all will go smoothly. But next time I'll capture the session and activate all logs.

Last time I was toally unable to use goto and other functions from the tablet app, and had to use vnc instead.
Whether or not it was because of previous rPI updater update is the question.

Hello Fred,
So, the way it was in my case was a non-sense, and the cause of drift in tracking, am I right ?

Hello,
When building optical trains, I can chose between none, the camera and the mount, which seems normal since there is no extra device declared for this purpose.
However, I am still wondering what the best choice would be.
What would happen upon setting each of the proposed choices ?
Rgrds,
J.-Luc
