- Object ASCOMDevice ObservingConditions
Constructors
| ObservingConditions(String) | Initialise ObservingConditions device |
| ObservingConditions(String, ILogger) | Initialise ObservingConditions device with a debug logger |
Properties
| AveragePeriod | Gets And sets the time period over which observations will be averaged |
| CloudCover | Amount of sky obscured by cloud |
| Connected |
Set True to enable the link. Set False to disable the link.
You can also read the property to check whether it is connected.
(Inherited from ASCOMDevice) |
| Connecting |
Completion variable for asynchronous connect and disconnect operations
(Inherited from ASCOMDevice) |
| Description |
Returns a description of the driver, such as manufacturer and model number.
(Inherited from ASCOMDevice) |

Methods
| Action |
Invokes the specified device-specific action.
(Inherited from ASCOMDevice) |
| CommandBlind |
Transmits an arbitrary string to the device and does not wait for a response.
Optionally, protocol framing characters may be added to the string before transmission.
(Inherited from ASCOMDevice) |
| CommandBool |
Transmits an arbitrary string to the device and waits for a boolean response.
Optionally, protocol framing characters may be added to the string before transmission.
(Inherited from ASCOMDevice) |
| CommandString |
Transmits an arbitrary string to the device and waits for a string response.
Optionally, protocol framing characters may be added to the string before transmission.
(Inherited from ASCOMDevice) |
| Connect |
Connect to device asynchronously
(Inherited from ASCOMDevice) |
| Disconnect |
Disconnect from device asynchronously
(Inherited from ASCOMDevice) |
| Dispose |
This method is a "clean-up" method that is primarily of use to drivers that are written in languages such as C# and VB.NET where resource clean-up is initially managed by the language's
runtime garbage collection mechanic. Driver authors should take care to ensure that a client or runtime calling Dispose() does not adversely affect other connected clients.
Applications should not call this method.
(Inherited from ASCOMDevice) |
| Refresh | Forces the driver to immediately query its attached hardware to refresh sensor values |
| SensorDescription | Provides a description of the sensor providing the requested property |
| SetupDialog |
Show the device set-up dialog
(Inherited from ASCOMDevice) |
| TimeSinceLastUpdate | Provides the time since the sensor value was last updated |
Extension Methods
| ConnectAsync |
Returns an awaitable, running, Task that connects to the device. (Polls IAscomDeviceV2.Connecting)
(Defined by ClientExtensions) |
| DisconnectAsync |
Returns an awaitable, running, Task that disconnects from the device. (Polls IAscomDeviceV2.Connecting)
(Defined by ClientExtensions) |
