DIY AstroEQ / Re: Standalone Operation
« on: December 12, 2015, 10:23:45 »
Hi Tom,
Is great to hear talking about standalone operation. It is what missing for me generally for visual use of my telescope without PC.
I have one more update to your idea. Using simple diy hand controller to change position of mount, 4 switches (4 directions) and best way when it will be connected to ST-4 port.
This needs one more GPIO switch to change ST-4 mode from classic rate 0.5x used for guinding to any faster rate (maybe programmed during configuration) for example x100. Especially to move object in center of view.
My old Losmandy Direct Drive System works similar. It was hand controller connected to built in ST4 port.
What do you think?
