Re: API for PA

Awesome! What version is this or will this be in?

Also, do you know whether it is possible to access the SharpCap scripting API from another C# .NET application? If so, can you give me a synopsis of how that would be possible?

Re: API for PA

Hey Robin,

thought I'd check back in with you, now that 4.0 is out the door :-)... did this make it onto any list that is coming in a future release?

Cheers,

Re: Mount Plate Solve & Sync not syncing

Oh boy, well now I feel dumb, looks like a case of RTFM. Didn't realize that was an option. Sorry. Maybe the tooltip on the icon could say something about this....

Mount Plate Solve & Sync not syncing

I am on SharpCap 3.2.6480 and cannot get the Plate Solve & Sync button to work correctly. It does the solve just fine, but no attempt to Sync the mount seems to be made. I have attached a logfile of this scenario.

API for PA

Hi Robin, Is there any way to get the ALT/AZ offsets from SharpCap in realtime? I am thinking about trying to implement an automatic PA routine on my mount. If Sharpcap could make the offsets available to my mount control app, it could adjust the mount accordingly… Maybe a socket based (REST?) would...

Re: Do ASCOM mounts have to support AzAlt?

Hey Robin, Thanks for the heads up, but I was indeed already returning equTopocentric. And the good news is that running the comformance test uncovered a few bugs as well. But it now passes with no errors or issues and works great in SharpCap! Hopefully you'll see some more registrations from our OA...

Re: Do ASCOM mounts have to support AzAlt?

Thanks, Robin. Yeah, ASCOM..... :-)

I will run conformance testing over the driver and see what that shows up. Thanks for the hint about the Transform, too. Got to get it running in Sharpcap without causing exceptions, I think there will be an uptick in users using this mount.

Do ASCOM mounts have to support AzAlt?

Hi there, I am writing an ASCOM driver for a mount that does not support Az/Alt, only Ra/Dec. Whenever I connect, Sharpcap throws up error dialogs. The Sharpcaps logs indicate an exception saying that Altitude is not implemented ,which is true, my driver throws a NotImplementedException on Altitude ...
