Summary | 0002324: Cartes Du Ciel HandPad Malfunction | ||||
Description | - PROBLEM: After clicking Left/Right arrows on the CDS HandPad, clicking the stop central button doesn't work. Need to click on “ïnterrupt” button at ASCOM tab in the telescope interface window to stop slewing. | ||||
Additional Information | - Windows10 Pro 64bits updated; - Last version of CDS installed (skychart-4.3-4137-windows-x64.exe); - All ASCOM drivers last versions installed; - Connected the telescope Meade LX90 ACF 8" via USB cable (COM3 to the Meade handcontrol serial port) (last Meade update on it); - Connected CDS to the telescope via the ASCOM "Meade Generic Driver" (because the "Meade Classic and Autostar I" driver doesn't work); - After clicking Up/Dows arrows at the CDS HandPad, clicking the stop central button works nice; | ||||

The stop button use the ASCOM method AbortSlew that must stop any movement whatever the axis. https://www.ascom-standards.org/Help/Developer/html/M_ASCOM_DeviceInterface_ITelescopeV3_AbortSlew.htm Normally you not even need to press the stop button, releasing one of the arrow button make the arrow to change from red to black and stop the motion. How the arrow color change when you press and release the buttons? What is exactly the driver you install? because the "LX200 generic" is not really intended for Meade telescope. I suggest you install this one because it the only with active development: https://bitbucket.org/cjdskunkworks/meadeautostar497/wiki/Home |

Hellow Patrick. Thanks for your prompt answer. I am not using the "LX200 generic" as you mentioned, but the "Meade Generic" exatly the same you sugested. When I focus the mouse cursor over the arrows, they became a little darker. The same occours when I click them. When I release the mouse or put it out of the arrows, the color return to normal. But the slewing does not stop, neither automaticly when I put the mouse out of any the arrows, nor when I click the stop in the case of the left/right ones. For the up/down arrows the stop works properly, as I said before. If I try clicking lots of times the stop button, them it finaly stops. |

I now have a doubt about the tool you use. Is it from the Observer Tool script as show in screenshot tool1.png Or directly from the ASCOM connection box as show in screenshot tool2.png , I was describing this one because this is the most recently added so the most prone to bug. Can you tell me the one you use and also try with the other tool to see if it work the same or better? |
|
I am using the tool1.png option. The second one, ASCOM direct, doesn't work at all. I tried the same setup in another computer and the results are the same. Both with all the same OS, and software versions. I am a retired electronic engineer, 61 years old, living in Brazil. I have some skills in exercising hardware conditions to catch software bugs. If I can help, please feel confort in asking me. Thanks once again. |

Hello Sergio, Yes there is two thing you can do to help to isolate the problem. - Try the same functionality but instead of the Meade select "Telescope Simulator for .NET" in the ASCOM telescope chooser. To "see" the simulator to move look at the RA and DEC number in the Telescope simulator window when you press the arrow button. - Activate the trace in the Meade driver. With the Meade driver selected, click the Configure button, below the COM port check "Trace on". Connect to the telescope, set tracking, exercise the arrow button in the ASCOM interface. be sure to wait a few second between each so this can be distinguished in the log file. Then do the same from the Observer tool, take note of the time when you start to use this tool. Disconnect the telescope and look the folder Documents\ASCOM . There is a directory with the current date. In this directory is the log file, the name start by ASCOM.Meade.Generic:Telescope... Upload the file here. |

Good Morning. Now it is 9:15h in Piracicaba/SP - Brazil. Clear skies and temperature about 23degrees Celcius. What a nice day of quarantine... I am rewriting everityng. I started at 8:00h but the upload faild and everything was lost... 1) - Try the same functionality but instead of the Meade select "Telescope Simulator for .NET" in the ASCOM telescope chooser. To "see" the simulator to move look at the RA and DEC number in the Telescope simulator window when you press the arrow button. ANSWER: a) ASCOM.Simulator.Telescope selected and connected. b) "Park" starts green and "Tracking" starts red (in the Setup window the box "Auto Unpark/Track on Start" is unchecked). DEC is stopped at +00.00'.00" and RA is running up like a real time clock. Up/Down arrows works fine and left/right one did not. c) Selecting "Tracking", goes green. RA stops running. Now all 4 arrows work properly. d) If in the Setup window the box "Auto Unpark/Track on Start" is checked, connecting starts with "Park" and "Tracking" green and the 4 arrows works fine too. 2) - Activate the trace in the Meade driver. With the Meade driver selected, click the Configure button, below the COM port check "Trace on". Connect to the telescope, set tracking, exercise the arrow button in the ASCOM interface. be sure to wait a few second between each so this can be distinguished in the log file. ANSWER: a) setup done. "Park"starts red and "Tracking" starts green. DEC is stopped and RA is running slowly. b) NONE OF THE 4 ARROWS WORK. c) I will send you the trace file for this exercise because the complete one exceed the upload limit. In the next task I will send the second part. ASCOM INTERFACE-ASCOM.Meade.Generic.Telescope.0907.359460.txt (32,935 bytes)

Good morning Sergio, It is expected the mount must be unparked and tracking before the arrow button can work. In the trace file the driver indicate CanUnpark=False. This indicate CdC cannot unpark the mount, this must be done with the telescope handpad before to connect to the computer. When you type long text here in Mantis it is best to type first in Notepad then copy the text, otherwise you can get a session timeout. You can zip the log files if they are too big. |

3) Then do the same from the Observer tool, take note of the time when you start to use this tool. Disconnect the telescope and look the folder Documents\ASCOM . There is a directory with the current date. In this directory is the log file, the name start by ASCOM.Meade.Generic:Telescope... ANSWER: Observer Tools sequence a) Setup done and Meade telescope connected. b) Up/Down arrows clicked, the telescope starts slewing but did not stop when the mouse is out for the keys limits. Clicking "Stop" interrupts the slewing. c) Left/Right arrows clicked, the telescope starts slewing but did not stop neither when the mouse is out for the keys limits nor clicking "Stop" once. The slewing only interrupts if I click "Stop" many times. d) Trace file attached. Good luck... OBSERVER TOOLS-ASCOM.Meade.Generic.Telescope.0912.593420.txt (41,596 bytes)

1) It is expected the mount must be unparked and tracking before the arrow button can work. ANSWER: a) Ok, this corresponds to the behavior of the simulation driver, but not for the Meade driver. b) The Meade telescope mount is not parked (I never use this function). In this case, if CDS is assumint that, it is wrong. I think it is not because the arrows starts the slewing. They only did not stop them. |

Sorry, I need to interrupt now. I'll return later. Thanks for a while. |

Thank you for the files, this help me to search for similar behavior with different simulator and I can find one that not stop moving when pressing the Stop button. The ASCOM documentation mention two way to stop the movement: call MoveAxis with a speed of 0 (this is what I was doing), or call AbortSlew. This is probably a bug in the driver if it not stop with the first command, but I make a change to the program to send both and this fixed the simulator. Maybe this can also fix the Meade driver. About the arrow not working at all, the trace files rise a doubt about a problem with the speed selection. I make a few change to the code to make it more reliable in some situation and add a display of the speed range in the ASCOM panel. A test version with this change is available from https://vega.ap-i.net/tmp/skychart/ Please download and install the version you need, probably skychart-4.3-4138-windows.exe Please test if it work better. I am also very interested to know the speed the mount report. Can you do a screenshot the same as the two I attach here. In the observer tool this is the dropdown list, in the Ascom panel just move the cursor over the number selection. |
|
Thank you Patrick. I will download the test vesion, install it and run as soon as possible. After this I will report the result to you. Congratullations for your beautifull work! Keep doind this! Have a nice day. |

See the attached files. |

This is really strange, now I not see what I can change more, I need more information. A way to get more information is you install the ASCOMPAD application. This a virtual handpad for the telescope and the focuser that also work with game controller or joystick. Install the version V209 from: https://sourceforge.net/projects/eq-mod/files/ASCOMPAD/ After you start this application select the menu Devices / Mount / Setup On the top left click Select, and select the Meade driver. Then click "Driver capabilities", take a screenshot and post here. I am particularly interested by the bottom box "Axis Rates". If the list is longer than the box please scroll down and take another screenshot. Close the window. Then move the slider for Preset Slew Rates 1 to the middle of the range, click Apply Changes on the bottom right. From the main window select the menu Devices / Mount / Connect Be sure "1" is selected in the dropdown box. Try if the button N/S/E/W move the mount correctly. It must stop when you release the button. |

Hello, I installed ASCOMPAD and performed the procedures you indicated. As you predicted, all the arrows worked perfectly. The telescope's movement stops when the key is released. I performed the test with 2 telescope models, LX90 and LX200, and the result is the same. Here are the screenshots you requested. Please review and if you need any more testing, just ask. Best regards, |
|
Thank you very much. I think I understand. According to the ASCOM specification the speed parameter for MoveAxis is in degree per second with minimum and maximum range. But here it list a series 1,2,3,4 and I think this is used to map the four speed of the LX200: GUIDE, CENTER, FIND, SLEW. I have to adapt my code for this special use. |
|
I am very happy to be able to help you. Try to implement the functionality of when you release the click on the arrow, the movement stops by itself. Once you have a new version, send it to us for testing. I am available. Best regards, |
|
The new test version skychart-4.3-4140 is available from: https://vega.ap-i.net/tmp/skychart/ Now it must list 1,2,3,4 in the speed selection box. Select at least 2 or 3 because 1 most likely do not produce any visible movement. In the ASCOM panel the movement stop when you release the arrow button, it must move only when the arrow is red. I cannot do that in the Observer tool for now because there is no separated script function for button down and up. |
|
I updated the script to support down/up button events. In tomorrow beta version the Observer tool arrow buttons will also stop the telescope motion when released. |
|
The beta version with all the change is available: https://sourceforge.net/projects/skychart/files/0-beta/2020-05-04/ Can you tell me if it is OK with your mount? |
|
Hello Patrick. I am sorry. I didn't pay attention to Mantis past days. Neither received an e-mail as usual occours. I will install the beta version and report to yous. Please wait. |

I installed version 4.3-beta-4148. Great progress has been made. In the ASCOM telescope interface window, the 4 arrows work perfectly. The movement stops immediately when we release the keys. However, in the Observer Tools window there is still a difference in behavior between the up / down and left / right keys. The former work perfectly as in the ASCOM window. The left / right arrows sometimes freeze and it is necessary to click Stop once or more times. I tried to make trace files for you to analyze, but when selecting "Trace on" in the driver setup an error message appears: "Driver setup method failed: ASCOM.MeadeGeneric.Telescope Object reference not defined for an object instance". This has never happened before. The speed selection appears as 1, 2, 3, 4, 0.0000, 0.0000, 0.0000, 0 in the ASCOM window and 1, 2, 3, 4, 0, 0, 0 in Observer tools but does not cause any change in the speed of the telescope . |
|
When the speed is selected as "0", the activation of the arrows does not cause movement. But selecting 1, 2, 3, 4 does not cause any change in speed. |

Good morning Patrick. I have new information for you. I installed version 4149, but even before that I discovered something else. All this time I was using a connection cable between the computer and the telescopes, which uses the UART Silicon Labs CP210x which has the behavior that we talked about so much. I decided to do tests with another USB / Serial converter that uses the UART Prolific, manufactured by TrendNet (TU-S9). With this converter everything works perfectly, including speed selection (1, 2, 3, 4). There is still a subtle difference in behavior between the up / down and left / right arrows in the Observer Tools window, but they all stop the movement as soon as they are released. So, I hope I helped you in some way. If you need any help in the future, send an email and we'll talk. Regards and congratulations on your work. |

It is good you tested the other adapter because I was short on idea now. Not easy to sort out the problem when this is a mix of software and hardware issues. I am very happy this buttons in CdC are now much better and reliable thanks to your help. Best regards, Patrick |
