Can't get solar tracking
I have the latest SharpCap (v4.1.12174). I have a Rainbow Astro RST-135 mount. I am using the ASCOM driver that SharpCap can access. The only tracking option that shows up in the SharpCap Controls is siderial. Here are screen prints.

Re: Can't get solar tracking
Hi John,
yes, this is a limitation of the version of the Hubo ASCOM driver that you are using - it only allows tracking to be turned on or off, not the rate to be selected. I'm told that there is a new version available from Rainbox Astro that resolves this issue (see this thread : viewtopic.php?t=7234&start=10).
cheers,
Robin
