panoptes.pocs.mount.ioptron package¶

Submodules¶

panoptes.pocs.mount.ioptron.base module¶

class panoptes.pocs.mount.ioptron.base.Mount(location, mount_version=None, *args, **kwargs)[source]¶

Bases: AbstractSerialMount

Mount class for iOptron mounts.

initialize(set_rates=True, unpark=False, *arg, **kwargs)[source]¶

Initialize the connection with the mount and setup for location.

iOptron mounts are initialized by sending the following two commands to the mount:

MountInfo

If the mount is successfully initialized, the _setup_location_for_mount method is also called.

Returns:: Returns the value from self.is_initialized.
Return type:: bool

property is_home¶

Mount home status.

Type:: bool

park(ra_direction=None, ra_seconds=None, dec_direction=None, dec_seconds=None, *args, **kwargs)[source]¶

Slews to the park position and parks the mount.

This still uses a custom park command because the mount will not allow the Declination axis to move below 0 degrees.

Note

When mount is parked no movement commands will be accepted.

Parameters:

ra_direction (str or None) – The direction to move the RA axis. If not provided (the default), then look at config setting, otherwise ‘west’.
ra_seconds (str or None) – The number of seconds to move the RA axis at maximum move speed. If not provided (the default), then look at config setting, otherwise 15 seconds.
dec_direction (str or None) – The direction to move the Declination axis. If not provided (the default), then look at config setting, otherwise ‘north’.
dec_seconds (str or None) – The number of seconds to move the Declination axis at maximum move speed. If not provided (the default), then look at config setting, otherwise 15 seconds.

Returns:

indicating success

Return type:

bool

panoptes.pocs.mount.ioptron.cem40 module¶

class panoptes.pocs.mount.ioptron.cem40.Mount(location, mount_version='0040', *args, **kwargs)[source]¶

Bases: Mount

search_for_home()[source]¶

Search for the home position.

This method uses the internal homing pin on the CEM40 mount to return the mount to the home (or zero) position.

set_target_coordinates(*args, **kwargs)[source]¶

After setting target coordinates, check number of positions.

The CEM40 can determine if there are 0, 1, or 2 possible positions for the given RA/Dec, with the latter being the case for the meridian flip.

panoptes.pocs.mount.ioptron.ieq30pro module¶

class panoptes.pocs.mount.ioptron.ieq30pro.Mount(location, mount_version='0030', *args, **kwargs)[source]¶: Bases: Mount
