Dear all,
I read through several posts but am still unsure if there is a remaining issue to send the Park/Unpark command in Indi (indi_setprop). I am aware there are several posts having issues with iOptron - but I can confirm my CEM60 behaves perfect to Park/Unpark using Ekos Indi Control Center when connecting to the remote telescope or using the hand controller....

-> When executing “Park” in the telescope HC the telescope slews to the horizontal park position (west)
-> When executing “Park” in Ekos the telescope slews to the horizontal park position as expected
-> When sending “indi_setprop -h 192.168.178.106 iEQ.TELESCOPE_PARK.PARK=On” it does park somewhere 45 deg east in RA from home position...

My initial intent is to write a script (Python, NodeJS, bash...) executing the park command behaving as if executed by Ekos or the HC. Of course a better understanding by learning what I do/understand wrong for future projects are highly welcome!

Thank’s for your feedback,
Frank
