Hello I added in rts2/scripts directory rts2pa. rts2pa_mesurement.py measures polar alignment without user interaction (beside editing a configuration file). Currently the result is written to the log file but I think it should end up at runtime in RTS2's model(s) since polar alignment is usually the largest contribution to the difference between apparent minus mount coordinates. I wrote a README where installation, on- and offline testing is described as well as how to add the target to postgres DB. Outside RTS2 repo I provide two FITS images which I used for the quantitatively check of the result. In case you like to test rts2pa download and untar them. A decent man page will follow. I carried out the whole development with RTS2 dummy devices and so I'll test it soon under real sky. In case any questions or bugs appear please contact me. bye, wildi |
