You can't park at a given "RA" ( right ascension ),
only a set "HA" (hour angle).
With the Meades, you can manually slew to a set position
and define that as your "Custom Park" position.
After that, ( assuming the ASCOM driver is correctly written
and Maxim uses the std commands),
all that is required is a request to park gets issued,
and it will go there and semi shut down.
