sync rotator

[Stephen Symons]

Hello,
Thanks for this design, it works well.

I am wondering if myRotator ASCOM driver uses ICameraV3 Interface allowing user software to sync the rotator to an angle

Thank you,

Stephen Symons

Hi Stephen
It was written some time ago , using the IRotatorV2 interface specifications.

Thanks for your reply. Isthere any hope of an update? Is the ascom driver source available?

Thanks again,

Stephen

Hi Stephen
I have started the work to make a new v3 driver. Will let you know when it is ready to test.

Hi Robert,

That is great news. I will get busy building a board.

I have looked at it and I think it might take much longer than I thought,A lot of changes were made in interface v3, so it is no longer a simple task

Thanks for considering it Robert. It is still a great project and I will continue to use it with only a slight inconvenience in syncing.

Cheers,

Hi Stephen
Honestly, there seems to be so many new features in the V3 rotator interface.
As yet I have no clue why a "mechanical" property and method is required, what they mean, how they differ and how they are implemented. There is scant explanation of these (I did look around) but I cannot implement something I dont know, follow, or understand. If anyone knows please let me know
