Re: [guide-user] Negative Encoder Resolutions
Bill J Gray May 4, 2004
Hi Ray,
The negative resolution shouldn't be necessary. One reason Guide
requires a two-star alignment is that the second star tells it which
way is which.
(One future improvement I've got on the list is having it _remember_
which direction is which after the first alignment, so that second
alignments will be at least passably good after a mere single star.
But other aspects of scope control are of much higher priority.)
I'm reasonably certain that the problem you encountered previously
wasn't due to negative resolutions, but due to Guide having radians
where degrees ought to have been. With that fixed, you should be
able to enter positive resolutions and have everything work just fine.
(And if anyone finds otherwise, please let me know!)
