Контроллер монтировки - SiTech II
« : 12 Січня 2018, 18:11:15 »
. - .

Извините, что то не нашел старой темы, поэтому открыл новую.

Совсем недавно вышла новая версия ПО для SiTech II - 0.92ge. Скачать можно здесь.

Хочу заметить что последняя версия firmware есть 0.96. Скачать можно здесь.

Самое главное изменение пофиксили баги в гидировании, а точнее в Dec компенсации.

А вообще вот лист исправление багов и добавления фич:

Version 0.92g Readme....

 * *  *  *  *
 0.92ge
 * Fixed declination pulse guide amount.
 0.92gd
 * If in the trackpast area and looking east (gem), and a goto is issued to the same location, we flip.
 * * 0.92gc
 * if using absolute encoders, and cascade mode selected, we init the motor(s) with the angle of the scope encoder(s).
 
 * 0.92gb
 * added stuff to tracking log, scp encoders, controller info, and slew start

0.92ga
 * If equatorial, and in southern hemisphere, the calpoints are ordered from south to north, then south again.
 * Added option for CTIO for indicating the floor is not down (interlock)
 * Resets the mS Clock on start of tracking if 4 hours or greater since the last time the clock was updated.
 * Changed it so the Slew command in TelCon updates the dTargetRightAscension and Dec..
 * Now we can read the PECSync inputs from the brushless controller, if brushless controller CPU version is 15.4
 *


0.92g
 *  Made a message if you're going to turn on the Track Sidereal Only.
 *  Fixed a few issues with the TCP protocol and added J2K goto's and sync, along with a coordinate epoch conversion.
 *  Now the abort TCP command stops a park command too.
 *  Fixed the SetTrackMode command to work as advertised.
 *  Now MotorsToAuto tcp command doesn't put to blinky instead of to auto.
 * 
0.92f
 * Fixed exception when uplugging a connected focuser.

 *
 *
0.92e
 * fixed exeption when clicking on Add GoTo, etc, in Script, if Junk.Script did not exist.
 *
 * *  *  *  *
 * * 0.92c
 * IF controller locations are zero (assume a fresh power up) AND you don't have absolute encoders selected in configuration,
 * THEN On Startup of SiTechExe, SiTechExe will restore the motor positions to the last motor positions on the last Exit of SiTechExe.
 * So, if you shut down SiTechExe, and turn off the controller (in that order), SiTechExe will "remember" the motors and scope encoders positions.
 * If you shut down the controller first, this will not work, because SiTechExe needs good communications to have a valid motor position on shutdown.
 *
 * Added Temp Compensation Control to AutoFocus (first turns it off (if it's on), then afterwards, restores it).
 *

 * 0.92b
  This installer updates LXToSiTech, so large negative guide values for Mgn, Mgs, Mge, and Mgw
  can pulse guide using axis's instead of just RA and Dec.
 
 * Now if you pulse guide with negative durations, it will effect the axis's, NOT RA and Dec.
 *
 * 0.92a
 * Added option to send the APEC worm angle to Pempro, or the old PEC. 
 * This is a checkbox in SiTechExe Config/ChangeConfig
 * Now you can read a PemPro file in APEC (not sure yet, whether to invert or not, so put an option there.)
 *

   0.91zb
 * Made the ScopeTime work much smoother, and took a lot of complexity out of it.
 * Working on Auto PEC control. There's a chance it may work, but I haven't test on the sky yet.
 * Fixed a pulse guide issue on the Right Ascension if the Pulse Guide stopped the motor (east at close to the sidereal rate)
 *
 * *  * 0.91Ya
 * Made satellite tracking logging be more organized, filename is norad number, there is a new folder named "SatTrackLogs"
 *  You can right click on the Log Checkbox to open the folder.
 *  Added the Tracking log option under Config/ChangeConfig/Ascom and Logging/

* 0.91Y Date, 2016-12-05
 * Fixed issue with southern hemisphere and the sunflower routine that calculates the best locations for calibration points.
 *
 
 * 0.91Xe
 fixed quite a few things when testing all of the ascom extension methods and properties.
  Dave Rowe made an update to PlateSolve3.
   There was an issue with a possible error on some Fits Headers.
   Now we're at version 3.48 of PointXP3
   Moved the VBS script files to a sub folder, and copied all of Dans vbs scripts to this subfolder

Changes in 0.91Xc from 0.91W

 * 0.91X and Xa, Xb, Xc and Xd
 * Xd: Recompiled for DotNet4, 'cuz it didn't seem to work with DotNet4.5 on a 32 bit machine.
 *  Made SkyView Colors come from file, that can be edited
 *  Made MaybeDestination bug flash while Goto/Sync window is up.

 * Made it not jump on addition of a calibration point (changed the RA and Dec Setpoint)
 * * "first true means perform a goto.  Second true means track the object
 * Added Asteroid Searches to CommandString("SearchAsteroid, 2010 RJ43, true, true");
 * Added Comet Searches to CommandString("SearchComet, p/2009 k1, true, true")
 * Added Database Searches to CommandString("SearchDatabase, m15, true");// the true means perform a slew to the object
 * now if you mouseover a planet, it doesn't display a false magnitude.
 * Hopefully found a better fixed-pitch font for the list boxes in  Comet Selection, Asteroid Selection, and satellite selection
 *
 * Hot Key to bring back windows to the main screen.
 *      The problem, if you have dual screens, and have skyview etc on other screens,
 *      now you use remote desktop and only have one screen, you can't see the other screens
 *      that may be off of your new screen.
 *     
 *      So to use, this, alt tab (or windows taskbar) and make SiTechExe Main window be the current window
 *      (This window may be invisible if on another screen you don't have).
 *      Now press 'Alt/Home'
 *      This will bring back the PlateSolve3 window if available, SkyView window (if available),
 *      Script window (If available), and the SiTechExe main window.
 *     
 * Possible false platesolve of Position and size are now discriminated....
 * Made sure it's impossible to have an init with a false platesolve without human interaction.
 * Made it possible to set up the camera F.O.V. after a possible false solve because of size.
 *      This involved a new button...
 * Added Ascom CommandString "DoAutoFocus, 4.4" to have a 4.4 exposure len.
 * Added option to cancel a wait command in Scripting
 
 * Made Satellite List Selector for LEO's
 * Compiled for DotNet 4.5.2
 * Now the Script Timer doesn't read the maxim camera each loop.
 * Added download satellite TLE's, and get Norad Number from internet to Satellite Screen.
 * Made the satellite tracking work a lot more accurately.
 
Changes in 0.91W from 0.91T
* 0.91W
 * If the motor offsets are larger than 2,000,000,000, then we force them to zero
 * in Setup, Made the SiteLat and SiteLong decimals be copyable (turned them from a label to a read only textbox).
 

This is still considered to be a Beta Version, please keep that in mind.
* 0.91Vc
 * Added ASCOM CommandString GoToPark 1, 2, and 3.  This won't officially park the scope, just moves it there.
 * Added ASCOM DoAutoFocus return results
 * Added ASCOM DoPlateSolve return results

Fixed a floating point number in config, should have been an int.
Comets and Asteroids are part of SkyView now.  Please read the help file in the Orbits Menu of SkyView.
I will be adding the asteroid files from the minor planet center in the next release.
Added J2000 coordinates display when doing GoTo/Sync.
Added a Precession/Nutation/Aberration calculator. It's on the Config/ChangeConfig/Potentiometers page.
Added ecliptic to the skyview (might be a funny bug once in a while)
Now if you rightClick park, and the click park 1 position, it will move there, but won't officially park.
Added ability to use a specific HTTP camera, for the Atlas telescope on Haleakala.

Every SiTechExe window has a Help button or if the screen is crowded, a button simply labelled "H".
I encourage you to read these. I just made new Help files, and edited old ones,
so they should all be helpful and up to date.

Did I mention read the help files?

In your SiTech Data folder, under Help Files, there is a file called
SiTechTelescopeDriverDocument.rtf
This is a compilation of ALL the help files, and also, some extended commands that are available, via the ASCOM interface.

Version Information:
 * *  *  *  *
 * 0.91U ability to use an http:// camera
 * 0.91T
 * Fixed some help file documents
 * Fixed CanSetPark property
 * Added Main Help to features tab
  * Added a button to open the data folder in the SiTechSetup ScopeInfo tab
 * Added View ReadMe file button in the SiTechSetup ScopeInfo tab
 
 * 0.91S
 * Made a way to do an init (sync) from CommandString(DoAPhotoOffsetInit) no init window
 * Made a way to do an init (sync) from CommandString(DoAPhotoCalibrationInit) no init window
 * Now SkyView remembers where it was last on start (again).
 *

 * 0.91R
 * Made a way to do an init (sync) from CommandString(DoAPhotoInit)
 * Old PXP can read files without the AltAlt parameter
 * Tried to make Save AutoLoad.pxp button work, but it seems like PointXP ActiveX leaves the file open.
 * Made the SkyView Defaults have better Object Enables, like galaxies, RA/Dec lines, etc.
 * Made Default Meridian Overlaps be better numbers.
 *

The help files location has been changed to
C:\YourProgramDataPathWhateverThatMayBe\SiTech\SiTechExe\HelpFiles\

There is now a Linux version available!  It works under Mono.  Just let us know if you want to try it.
New between 0.91P and 0.91N
 * *  *  *  *
 * 0.91P
 * Fixed ServoII limitsSwitche indicators being mixed up, RA and Dec
 * Added ServoII limit switch info to the "Controller Stuff" window.
 * Made the old PointXP work with an alt-alt scope.
 * Fixed meridian flip bug, where it would wrap around (Dave Lane from ECU discovered this)
 * Made the track telescope option on SkyView sticky.
 * Made the Default Skyview (if there isn't a config file), be reasonable options
 * Made the tracking stop after 10 deg's of tracking, if SiTechExe crashed, or serial port unplugged.
 *

New between version 0.91N and 0.91K:
 * 0.91N
* LINUX!
 Making it work under linux and mono (with reduced features).
 You need to use a differently compiled version, please contact us if you want to try it.

 * SKYVIEW:
made the skyview a lot faster, and got rid of the overlay. Now it uses more memory! 
Made a static f.o.v. indicator on SkyView.
Made a Zoom previous command in SkyView.
Made more zoom options on the right click menu.
Now SkyView Zooms from menu (used to be buttons), keep the screen centered.
Skyview has menu now, instead of all the buttons. It's a lot less cluttered.
Fixed the satellite track on skyview going past the 10 degree altitude limit.
Found and fixed that planets weren't being precessed/nutate/aberrated to JNow
Made the F.O.V indicator read properly when East/West is swapped
You can now read the FUTURE calibration points in sky view, and also do goto's to them.
   Don Westergen's Suggestion.
