Can Sharpcap perform meridian flip?
Sequence should be
Stop capturing frames, stop autoguiding, slew to the same target, plate solve and center target, autofocus, switch guiding (PhD2), continue captering the same object beyond meridian.

Thanks a lot!

Hi,

you could probably build something based on the sequencer steps available now to do all those things. However I am currently adding new steps to try to make this a bit easier. The fun part is that different ASCOM mount drivers have different ways to trigger the flip and some can get 'stuck' if you go too far past the meridian without flipping... It's all quite complex

cheers,
