Dome alignment with mount

Message par Dekelver Pieter-Jan »

Dear,

I want to slew my dome precisly to my mount. With the script i have 2 options:
Move Dome and SetDomeToTelescope:

SetDomeToTelescope:
Ths options requires that the mount will first be pointed at the target, and then the dome will move to the mounts position.
This would take more them ( double time: first mount, then dome )

Move Dome:
This option will move the dome to a certain Azimuth value in radian.
But this is always overshooting the target. Because the value i use, is the azimuth value of the target itself.
So the alginment is not done properly because of the fact that the position of the telescope inside the dome is not calculated i guess.
How can i calculated or make shore that the dome is going straight away to the correct position.

When not using a script and let my setup GOTO to a star: the dome and mount are moving at the same time and the dome is always spot on.
So it should be possible to use "move dome" instead of "SetDomeToTelescope"

Thank you
