Good Seeing

Just took delivery of my new 900GTO last week and am looking for some ideas on how to get the 900 to park correctly using the TeleAPI driver... I use MaxPoint, so there's no real choice in running the native driver in The Sky....

Has anyone figured out a work-around to get to one of the regular park positions? Script, maybe?

Thanks!

Bob,

I can only tell you how I did it with my Meade. I connect the scope to its Ascom driver via the POTH hub. I then tell The Sky's TeleAPI to use the POTH hub. The beauty of this is that Maxim DL also connects to the telescope using POTH, as well and thus you have all of it's features as well as The Sky for slewing and visual. If you can park through the POTH hub, then it will work through CCDAP3 this way and you should have use of Maxpoint. Then just connect CCDAP3 to the telescope using the ASCOM option. Be sure to set the Park position via the telescope controls first and it should work through the rest.
