Nexus DSC '1 star align' bug #60

Open AstroKeith opened 1 year ago

Discovered a new bug in the Nexus DSC. If you set alignment in setup to '1 star', beware......

If you initial align via the Nexus DSC catalogue and keypad, all is OK and subsequently you can do local syncs via the Nexus, SkySafari or eFinder.

If you initial align using eFinder or SkySafari, the local syncs just dont work (very bad for eFinder functioning!!!).

I've never used 1 star alignment before, but I'm doing an install for someone with limited mobility and it would help. After all with eFinder we dont need initial alignment accuracy!

Serge is aware.

Thanks for letting us know! I will document this! But this does not change how we need to align using the 2 star alignment?

No ,it's only 1 star that is affected. But do make sure in the Nexus DSC Settings/Align you have set 2 star align w/o altitude reference.
