Property Value

Type: Boolean

Implements

IDomeV2AtPark
Exceptions
ExceptionCondition
PropertyNotImplementedExceptionIf the property is not implemented
NotConnectedExceptionIf the device is not connected.
DriverExceptionAn error occurred that is not described by one of the more specific ASCOM exceptions. The device did not successfully complete the request.
Remarks

Set only following a Park operation and reset with any slew operation. Raises an error if not supported.

Applications should not rely on the reported azimuth position being identical each time AtPark is set . For some devices, the park position may encompass a small range of azimuth values, rather than a discrete value, since dome inertia, the resolution of the park position sensor and/or the azimuth encoder may be insufficient to return the exact same azimuth value on each occasion. On the other hand some dome controllers always force the azimuth reading to a fixed value whenever the park position sensor is active.
