I did not talk about it with Ioptron. I know this from deleted Yahoo group "Ioptron telescope etc.." and yahoo group about Skysafari.

I have succesfuly calibrated mount. I have made first guided exposeure with Ekos. Code from previous post works.

Problem is with isSlewComplete method. I can't make exposures after goto. Have to disconnect, make calibration again (internal guider don't save calibration), make photo.
First I will try this code if (currentRA==targetRA and currentDEC==targetDEC) return true; for isSlewing method.

Commnad :CM# is ignored if telescope is slewing and return "Cordinates matched ... etc" if telescope is not slewing. Command reference say about do :CM# after goto and :CMR# in other Sync case etc. If simple solution with compare current and target RA/DEC fail, I will try merge it with Sync command :CM#.

Obsolte driver has many functions. I vote on 4. new driver on base on LX200GotoNova and implement functionality from Your driver.

Thank you

Robert
