Script for occultation observation
Posted: Sun Apr 23, 2023 10:50 am
Hello,
Here a short preview of the future SharpCap script (and OccultWatcher Addin). It should simplify the preparation of an observation.
An event file is generated from OccultWatcher and then import in SharpCap.
I'm still programming the "capture" part, but you can see in the PDF the actual status of my codes.
Please send me your comments and ideas (if it is not too complicated to add, I will add it if it simplify the preparation and the capture of the occultation events). One "new" idea I have is to add a "voice" in my script. I found how to do.
Part OccultWatcher Addin:
The Addin is finished ... but it needs an small update of OccultWatcher.
I have a beta version from Hristo. It will be necessary to wait until this new version of OccultWatcher is released.
Part SharpCap scripts:
First I write the codes of the script for the future version 4.1 (some changes in ASCOM).
The beta 4.1 version is working properly, but it is still not an official released version.
I updated my LED_Calibration script that can be started in the new "Occultation" script.
Robin, I code a "night vision", but is it possible to "transfer" the SharpCap night vision to the script window ?
Regards,
Jean-Francois
