What would be the basic start up procedure for running EKOS the first time? I don't have an observatory, so I'm moving my equipment to the back yard each time. My intention with EKOS is to build a queue of sequences, then have them automate each night I set up my telescope.
I'm assuming it would go something like this:
1. Polar align my AVX mount and build it's GOTO model using the hand controller.
2. Launch KSTARS/EKOS, connect to equipment and check polar alignment.
3. Set park location?
4. Start focus routine
5. Pick targets in sequencer
6. Slew to first target and align
7. Start guiding
8. Start sequence
