hallo,
die aktuelle version soll ja auch die teleskopsteuerung möglich machen (die davor glaube ich auch schon).
nun lese ich gerade im manual und verstehe nur bahnhof <img src="/phpapps/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
5.9 Telescope Control
Version 0.8.1 of Stellarium introduces simple control of motorised telescopes. The user
selects an object (i.e. by clicking on something - a planet, a star etc.) and presses the
telescope go-to key (see section 5.9.3) and the telescope will be guided to the object.
Multiple telescopes may be controlled simultaneously.
WARNING: Stellarium will not prevent your telescope from being pointed at the Sun. It
is up to the user to ensure proper filtering and safety measures are applied whenever using
a telescope!
5.9.1 Telescope Servers
Stellarium does not control the telescope directly. Instead it talks to another program called
a telescope server. The telescope server program knows how to talk to a particular type of
telescope, and provides a common interface to Stellarium over TCP/IP networking. Each
telescope to be controlled has one telescope server program which listens to a TCP port
through which Stellarium connects to it.
Up to ten telescopes may be controlled by Stellarium at one time.
At time of writing there are two telescope servers implemented: a dummy (test) telescope
server, and a telescope server for the Meade LX200.
5.9. TELESCOPE CONTROL CHAPTER 5. ADVANCED USE
name A name for the telescope, e.g. “my_lx200”. Don’t use spaces.
protocol The network protocol. Use “TCP”.
hostname The name of the computer on which the telescope server is running.
port number The TCP port number which the telescope server is listening to.
delay This determines how Stellarium displays the current location of
the telescope. This is a numeric value expressed in microseconds,
e.g. 500000 = half a second ago.
Table 5.5: Telescope server parameters
For example, if you have two Meade LX200 telescopes which are connected to your
Linuxmachine on serial ports /dev/ttyS0 and /dev/ttyS1, you would start two telescope
server programs like this:
$ TelescopeServerLx200 10000 /dev/ttyS0 &
$ TelescopeServerLx200 10001 /dev/ttyS1 &
In this case the two telescope server programs would listen on TCP ports 10000 and 10001
respectively. See the Stellarium wiki for more information on how to obtain and build the
telescope server programs.
5.9.2 Configuration
To use telescope control in Stellarium, the following are necessary:
1. Edit themain configuration file. In the [astro] section, set the value of flag_telescopes
and flag_telescope_name to true.
2. Set up a telescope and start a telescope server for it (see section 5.9.1).
3. Add a new section [telescopes] to the main configuration file. One line per telescope
is required. Each line starts with the numerical ID of the telescope and a colon
separated list of connection parameters: name, protocol, hostname, port number and
delay. See table 5.5 for an explanation of these terms.
For example, these settings define two telescopes, named first_lx200 and second_lx200.
These telescopes are controlled by two separate instances of the LX200 telescope server
running on the local machine on TCP ports 10000 and 10001 respectively:
[astro]
...
flag_telescopes = true
flag_telescope_name = true
[telescopes]
1 = first_lx200:TCP:localhost:10000:500000
2 = second_lx200:TCP:localhost:10001:500000
5.9.3 Keyboard Controls
To make a telescope point at the currently selected object in Stellarium, simply press
CTRL+[telescope number], e.g. for the telescope first_lx200 configured in the example
in section 5.9.2, press CTRL+1.
... wo in aller welt sind die dummy files ? wo das telescope-server programm ?
wie stellt man das unter windows ein, wenn man kein linux hat ?
die beiden flags in dem configfile auf true stellen war das einzige, was möglich war, der rest scheint irgendwie nicht machbar <img src="/phpapps/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
