No HOME button for WD-20e mount

#1

Post by stbkaiser »

HI Robin
Just received my WD-20e mount and working through operation via SC.
I'm running SharpCapInstall-4.1.14310.0-64bit
I can Connect OK to WD-20e via Onstep Telescope hardware setting.
In Telesccope Hardware controls I can Slew mount , PARK-UNpark, enable/disable Tracking
But I don't have a HOME button.
The mount does have HOME switches and the HOME command functions in APT.
The mount also has a configurable PARK position, which I set to a different location than HOME.
Would you be able to configure a HOME button for the Onstep Telescope setup?
Thanks
Steve

Hi Steve,

SharpCap 4.1 doesn't have the 'home' functionality in it, but you will find it in SharpCap 4.2 (still currently in beta, but nearly ready for release). See https://www.sharpcap.co.uk/sharpcap/sha ... p-4-2-beta

cheers,

Robin
