Automated observatory roof (closing)
Hi guys,
Who out there has an automated roof closing system on the obs? One that accounts for rain, dew or the end of a data collection session? I'd really like to extend my data collection time however I do like sleep.
My control system for opening/closing the roof is a push button affair linked to relays controlling the motor.....connecting an external controller to this shouldn't be a major issue I think.
I'm currently using APT as control software.....and I think I'd like to stay with it if I can.
So what are people using as a controller?
Any issues I should be aware of?
