Hi the_lizardking,
Hi Armando,
no good news but somehow as expected,...
However even this solution would not help a lot, you know as well as me that the firmware has more than one open issue. So from my point it would have been nice to get "epec" fixed and I understand it is your highest priority, but this afects only 10% of the users,... and if every change would as that time intensive,... well.
I mean only to point out that I gave higher priority to EPEC just for 3 main reasons:
1. some users (not me - I didn't buy any encoder) bought expensive encoders just to make use of EPEC;
2. I think a (working) EPEC would have been the main LFEP feature;
3. I think some missing/not working features (e.g. polar alignment, 2-3 stars alignment) are not essential as they are easily replaced by appropriate software.
What I learned is that henceforth I'll ignore untested features while choosing something to buy and I'll stay away from equipment offered by a single developer preferring well known brands or open source solutions.
OK however looking forward maybe we get some input here building something complete outside of LFEP as discussed before,... this could help for the "epec" and "IntelyTrack" at the end. So in this case we would catch two birds with one song,...
I would suggest to forget the "EPEC" acronym for 2 reasons:
1. It's a nonsense as it should be not related to PEC...
2. I'd like to forget anything related to something that is definitely buggy.
I mean to make use of my LFEP by ignoring the missing/not working features.
I'll keep on the ASCOM development just to solve new bugs or to implement missing features.
Clear Skies!
Armando Beneduce
