Version 1.1.0

  • Full control over the serial port settings. (Allows people with other scopes to adjust settings as needed, default still works for most people)
  • Bypass the inital Autostar dialogs for LX200GPS and set the date and time.
  • Bypass the initial Autostar dialogs for Autostar 497 and AudioStar And set the date and time. (will still need to align as normal)
  • Code checked to abort commands that should not happen when the scope is parked.
  • Parked behaviour
  • No Coordinates: will raise an exception when the scope is parked.
  • Last Good Position: will return the scopes last known RA and Dec
  • Report coordinates as: will return the Alt Az as set by you in the settings. Note: This is converted to RA and Dec internally in the driver.
  • Fixed issue with the date format of the command used to set the date and time of the scope on inital connection for the LX-200GPS (and when unparking the scope as well) The date format was 12 hours, when it should have been 24 hour.
  • The unpark command now reports True for LX200-GPS, but false for Autostar based scopes.
