Dome homing #30

Closed suvowner closed 4 years ago

suvowner commented 4 years ago

every time I home the dome no matter where the magnet is, it thinks azimuth zero is every 180 degrees. so it will stop at the magnet and it thinks that is azimuth zero, and then if I ask it to home it stops at 180 degrees of the magnet and it thinks that is home.

when I manually ask the dome to rotate 180 degrees it only rotates 90 at best.

it seems until I solve this problem it will never slave correctly to my scope, as now when I slave the dome only rotates about half the distance it should to stay aligned with the scope.

This has been solved by correctly setting the dip switches on the motor controller , which is 2 and 6 on .
