Telescope.SlewToAltAz() Method

Move the telescope to the given local horizontal coordinates, return when slew is complete

Syntax

Telescope.SlewToAltAz(Azimuth, Altitude)

The method syntax has these parts:

Part Description
Azimuth (Double) Target azimuth (degrees, North-referenced, positive East/clockwise).
Altitude (Double) Target altitude (degrees, positive up)
Return (Nothing) Does not return a value.

Remarks

This Method must be implemented if CanSlewAltAz returns True. Raises an error if the slew fails.

The slew may fail if the target coordinates are beyond limits imposed within the driver component. Such limits include mechanical constraints imposed by the mount or attached instruments, building or dome enclosure restrictions, etc.

The TargetRightAscension and TargetDeclination properties are not changed by this method.

Raises an error if AtPark is True, or if Tracking is True.
