Error in ASCOM Device Hub User and Technical Information Guide #12

Under the "Device Configuration" section of the Technical Information Guide, there is this sentence "In the example on the right, point A is 9 mm east of the dome origin, 48 mm north of the dome origin and 44 mm above the dome origin."

The referenced example diagram is missing and adding it would be a boon for those of us trying to get our dome geometry settings correct.

The example that is referenced in the User Guide is the screenshot to the immediate right of the text that shows the Dome Setup panel. I did update the screenshot so that the displayed values match the narrative.

I did not include a diagram of how to measure coordinate offsets in 3-dimensional space. The only examples of diagrams that I saw were not clear enough and were as likely to cause confusion as they were to remedy it.

The updated document is included in version 6.5.1.2.

Thanks!
