Dome.Slaved Property

Dome.Slaved (read-write, Boolean)

True if the dome's azimuth (and optionally, altitude) is slaved to the telescope position.

Syntax

Dome.Slaved [= Boolean]

The property syntax has these parts:

Part	Description
Value (Boolean)	True if the dome's azimuth (and optionally, altitude) is slaved to the telescope position.

Remarks

Slaving is automatically enabled under the following conditions:

The telescope is connected
The dome is parked then unparked
The dome is homed then unhomed

Slaving is automatically disabled if the ACP user aborts a slew (either on the main window or via the multi-function button on the dome control panel). Once unslaved, the only way to re-slave is by setting this property True.

When the Slaved property is changed from False to True, an immediate check is made to see if slaving slew is needed and if so it is immediately done.
