celestron_aux alignment accuracy #450
Comments
Recently, I added "Nearest Alignment" plugin. Please try this plugin and report back if it fares any better. |
@luzik I did not abandon this project. I am just very busy, so work is going slowly... |
@jochym latest in GIT master, not released yet. |
Ok. Will test. |
Any updates? |
I have tested under the sky, and it worked ok. I could not properly reproduce the test case. I am working (slowly) on a better simulator for the scope. So no fundamental updates yet. Keep the issue open - it may be valid and may need fixing. |
Alignment accuracy depends on first step. Before syncing any point using plate solving, user is obligated to setup mount to the North leveled with alt=0. Sometimes it is hard to do this accurately. Any other software I used, do not require such step.
To reproduce, make an error in leveling with +20 deg in ALT.
boooom!!!! My mount physically going to AZ:90 ALT:60 !!
Please rewrite alignment code to not base on this initial position requirements.
New celestron_aux users switching from Celestron Hand Controller, SkySafari, SkyPortal and other software like me have to be confused while trying use this driver just trying to align to first star on sky like they use to do
@jochym please go back to Your child :)
