Meridian Flip
Hi,
Last year at the Qld Astrofest auto meridian flip with the EQ8, EQMod and Sequence Generator Pro was working perfectly well. Now I have everything set up in the Sirius dome and connecting everything via POTH, despite ensuring that auto flip is configured in all the places it appears when the alloted time is reached nothing happens and the sequence continues regardless of passing the meridian.
The screen captures attached show:
POTH
EQMOD
SG Pro
Auto Meridan Flip is enabled. Last night I had configured multiple 10 min subs and one finished two minutes before the crossing the meridian. I expected it to not take the next and and perform the flip. It just carried on imaging and without mount limits on would have eventually forced the motors.
I am wondering if this is a problem of POTH? I am using ASCOM 6.2
Whilst I'm here, I'm also wondering if anyone has ever actually scheduled an sequence to start at a specified time. See the screen shot attached showing the time contraints you can configure for a subject. I set this and waited for it to start and it just did absolutely nothing!
