Hi Robin,

maybe you can please add a command to set tracking rate, Sideral/Lunar/Solar/King .. if available in mount.

Hi Thomas,

that step already exists - it's in the 'Mount' section as 'Set Mount tracking rate to <...>'. You can also set the rate to 'None' using this step to disable tracking.

If you're not seeing it then you may need to update your version of SharpCap.

cheers,

Robin

Hi Robin,

Ah ok, yes it's now available, thanks.

It seems there is no interaction with ASCOM driver of mount to ask for available rates.
I can set King rate without any error message on a mount where there is none.
But I'm not sure if this is an issue of ACSOM driver for this mount, it may accept the command without an error message.

Hi Thomas,

yes, you're right - in the drop down for the sequencer it just lists all the possible rates without checking with the mount. As you say, you will get an error if you choose a rate not supported by your mount.

cheers,

Robin
