Anthony Krishock created a new topic ' Slew scope via command line' in the forum. 4 years ago

Hello all,

I have a Celestron CPC1100 GPS telescope and I have a PC attached to the telescope fork arm that is running Linux Mint 19.1 x64 with INDI and HNSKY installed. I am working on a way to control the telescope remotely. I am able to connect to the telescope via HNSKY and control it through INDI, but I was wondering if there is a way to slew the telescope via command line without using HNSKY directly..

What I mean is, once my scope is aligned, I open a terminal and simply type something like: "slew M81" or maybe "goto M81"

Is something like this possible?

Thanks
