Future features

  • Migrate code over to .net core instead of using .net framework
  • Implement ApertureArea
  • Implement ApertureDiameter
  • Implement DoesRefraction (can always be False)
  • Implement FocalLength
  • Implement SiteElevation
  • Implement SlewSettleTime (can always be 0)
  • Implement Implement SideOfPier support

If you would like a feature adding, please send a message via the support mail group.

Pending changes

  • Fix issue with LX-200 and the "slewing" parameter always returning true
  • Add dynbamic breaking

Prior to 24-Aug-2019

  • Code refactor to wrap the shared resources to allow unit testing of the telescope and focuser drivers
  • Implement Continuous Integration using TeamCity. (Not this is not visible publicly)
  • Implement unit test coverage for as much of the code as possible

Prior to 08-Jul-2019

The roadmap for implementation is as follows.

  • implement the ITelescopeV3 interface functionality for an in process driver (done)
  • implement the IFoccuser interface funcationality for the same in process driver (done)
  • implement commandblind support to allow sharpcap to move the scope (done)
  • implement a server to allow multiple processes to connect to the driver at the same time (without the need for the POTH Hub) (done)
  • create installer (using Wix) (done)
  • implement actions to allow access a virtual handbox to be created (done)
  • add localisation support to support multiple languages (done)
  • get people with Meade telescopes to test and confirm that it works for them as well. The intention is that this driver will work with any Meade telescope regardless of age/firmware version etc. (done)

Note: The local server implmentation is in fact a rewrite of the code. The features implemented so far will be ported as needed to make the drivers function correctly.
