HI
I had my first experience with the sequencer, and I tested a slew to a target, over 30-40 degrees. My mount is probably peculiar, because for several reasons I slowed down the goto speed. In my test, it took just over 60 seconds, enough to receive the error message:

"Mount failed to complete goto within 60 seconds"

which makes the sequencer immediately fail. Is there a possibility to tune the timeout value? I did not find it, but it would be very useful.... and would solve my problem!

best regards
Paolo

Hi,

I will increase the timeout to 120s for the next update - I was not expecting anyone's mount to be quite that slow!

cheers,

Robin

Thank you! My telescope is rather heavy and the driver has troubles at large speeds. However, I suspect that at the pier swap at the meridian it could take > 120s...

Hi Paolo,

if it does take >120s, just give me a shout - it's not hard to change it again.

thanks,

Robin
