Did polar aligment and sadly this doesn't fix issue when doing polar align. But it is not that big problem at least for me because scope can still at least partially see through.

Yes RPi have weak CPU so that 5FPS is within expectations. With my ASI1600 I get around 2FPS without writing it to card. I wrote myself barebone program that downloaded frames from camera as fast it was possible. I could get up to 5FPS or 170MB/s data rate while normal PC could go up to 400MB/s. That was just downloading to RAM and nothing more.

I am new to using dome so I don't know if I am missing something but it seems like Ekos totally ignore rotation/status of dome. This lead to situation when scope is still blocked by dome but it is Ekos is already trying to capture images for focus, align or guide calibration.

Hey I also use Asus PN50. Download time down from 2.7s to 0.2s. But isn't 64GB RAM overkill? Or are you doing planetary imaging and you need BIG buffer for that?

I have new PulsarDome and did some testing and found one issue with meridian flip. I set simple sequence without sheduler to object close to meridian. Then waited until it crossed so mount do meridian flip. Problem is that dome doesn't start moving until meridian flip is done. This mess up guiding and realign because telescope is blocked by dome for like 15-20 seconds until dome rotate.
When I just manually goto mount from one side to other dome start rotating immediatly to new position. So it is there before mount finish flip so there is no issue. I attached log where that meridian flip is happening.

I think if mount really need aliment before connecting you can just confirm position without fine tuning. That should work. Or maybe buy EQ6-R?

Do they have some about page in ASIAIR? Companies usually put open source mentions there.
Are you user of ASIAIR? Then ask them politely if you can get changes to INDI lib that they made.

That are solved coordinates of frame center. Last two columns is how far off target you are. On fourth line it is 17' off.

Platesolvenig just show any close object. I think your scope just drifted away for some reason.

Oh now I remember there is known issue that if something is connected to USB3 port wifi speed suffer or doesn't connect at all.

Ok I will answer myself. Looking at code rigel_dome.cpp there is no method that set home position. So I will probably try to implement that as plugin which is based on does contain support for setting home position.

Hi. I connected my Pulsar Dome Drive to and it works great but I have one issue. I can't find a way to set home position. Problem is that even after sync position as soon as magnet go around sensor it jump back to 180 degree. On screenshots from manual I can see that windows driver can set both parking and home position but in INDI I see only parking.
