Re: Overpasing the meridian limit

Hi Alberto,

> My question is if there is any option in the configuration (FS2 or
Sky) to avoid the mount stops in the meridian point.

If the mount stops at the meridian, it's not a problem of the FS2. The
FS2 has no limit at the meridian. It will continue to track or slew as
long as you want. The limit is reached when the telescope touches the
mount or the tripod, but the F2 doesn't know this limit.

May be you have set some kind of limit in TheSky software?
