Chris -- Look at the code in the VB-based drivers and read about the DriverHelper.Profile object. You need to set the properties then call Profile.Register()...
Hi I'm trying to write my driver and can't get the slew methods to work. It seems to go to the target, at least in one axis, then always slews to Ra=0 and...
It may be easier to offer ideas if the format your mount expects to see RA/Dec in was known. Is Ra = 0, Dec = 0 a default mount position for it's startup...
I don't have a mount per se ,I'm making a exe to control a stepper drive Anyway both Ra and Dec are in degree's. I'm trying to copy the Slew coords into a...

Robert, Yes Acquire Star does require the full PinPoint. PinPoint is a great program and well worth it. However while you are saving up you can use the ...

As you know, I have a similar device available. There may be some appeal with the 220v, especially in the European market. I sent one of my controllers over...
