virtual DeviceType MountDriverInterface::deviceType ( void )
inlinevirtual

Returns the type of device.

Implements DriverRootInterface.

Reimplemented in X2Mount.

◆ driverInfoDetailedInfo()

virtual void MountDriverInterface::driverInfoDetailedInfo ( BasicStringInterface & str) const
pure virtual

Return detailed information about the driver.

Implements DriverInfoInterface.

virtual int MountDriverInterface::establishLink ( void )
pure virtual

Connect (link) to the device.

Implements LinkInterface.

Implemented in X2Mount.

◆ isLinked()

virtual bool MountDriverInterface::isLinked ( void ) const
pure virtual

Return true if there is a connection, otherwise return false.

Implements LinkInterface.

Implemented in X2Mount.

◆ needsRefactionAdjustments()

virtual bool MountDriverInterface::needsRefactionAdjustments ( void )
inlinevirtual

Return true if the mount wants TheSkyX to handle refraction if and only if the mount itself does not internally handle refraction.

Reimplemented from NeedsRefractionInterface.

◆ queryAbstraction()

virtual int MountDriverInterface::queryAbstraction ( const char * pszName,
void ** ppVal )
pure virtual

Return a pointer to well defined interface.

Implements DriverRootInterface.

◆ raDec()

virtual int MountDriverInterface::raDec ( double & dRawRA,
double & dRawDec,
const bool & bCached = false )
pure virtual

Return the mechanical or raw right ascension and declination coordinates of the mount.

Parameters
dRawRAis the right ascension coordinate of the mount from 0 to 24.
dRawDecis the declination coordinate of the mount from -90 to +90.
bCachedmay be ignored.
See also
NeedsRefractionInterface for clarity on what is meant by "mechanical or raw" coordinates.

Implemented in X2Mount.
