Rotator setting doesn't work correctly

Issue #1182 closed
Artesky Italy created an issue

Hello, I tried to use the rotator function into Nina with a Wanderer Rotator Mini

When I set the home postion it works good, then when I rotate the camera system, Nina loses the home position setting

I find out this issue on using non-english version of Nina, if I use a English version the bug doesn’t exist

Tried with version 2.0 HF1 and HF2

    Hi,

    Can you please reproduce the problem when having the loglevel set to TRACE in options and then attach the log file of that test from %localappdata%\nina\logs

    Then we can confirm if this localisation issue is on driver level or on application level. Most likely this is a problem in the driver. There have been similar problems in other drivers in the past that had been fixed in the driver.

    Thanks.

    Hi,
    Guess I am not able to re-open the ticket, but I can reproduce what @Artesky Italy has reported. Setting language to english (USA) works fine. Switching to e.g. German, I can reproduce above problem. Please find logfile here using German language, where rotation fails.
    Shall I also supply a log with english language, where the rotation succeeds?

    Thanks,
    Nico

    The log further indicates this being an issue in the driver. it shows that the target position of 4° is started and reached, but while it is still reporting to move the position suddenly switches to something else.
