SDK for NYX-101 mount to make a personal hand controller
Posted: Sat Apr 22, 2023 8:03 pm
l was thinking I would like to try to make a bare bones hand controller, something with just NSEW buttons to slew the NYX during the day when I have my Lunt Solar telescope on it. My routine is I visually get the sun in the eyepiece and line up my Hynode Solar Guider. Once that is done I will calibrate the Hynode if required and the put it into guide mode. Once that is done I don't touch things much unless the Hynode is drifting, which it does about every 3rd time. Usually that is because of a self inflicted issue but regardless it is necessary or a heck of a lot simpler to just push button slew to back on target and go. I noticed on the download page you mention a SDK but there is none to be found. Is one available and if yes, how can I get access to it?
As an aside, I've seen previous posts from last year where employees have posted on this forum that Pegasus is working on a hand controller. If you are just months away, my actions are kind of moot. If your a year away, I could probably put something together in a month that to me would be useful.
