	float Position
)

Parameters

Position  Single
Mechanical rotator position angle.

Remarks

Must be implemented.

Introduced in IRotatorV3.

Moves the rotator to the requested mechanical angle, independent of any sync offset that may have been set. This method is to address requirements that need a physical rotation angle such as taking sky flats.

Client applications should use the MoveAbsolute(Single) method in preference to this method when imaging.

Exceptions

InvalidValueExceptionIf Position is invalid.
NotConnectedExceptionWhen Connected is False.
DriverExceptionAn error occurred that is not described by one of the more specific ASCOM exceptions. Include sufficient detail in the message text to enable the issue to be accurately diagnosed by someone other than yourself.
