    Default AP Mount Not Reporting Completion of Park (was: Weather Script Issue)

    The weather script was called when the clouds rolled in. The dome closed. However, the System Status page (The Web Console) had blinking text => Dome “Slew” / Telescope “Slewing” / Activity “Utility Script” / Plan target “ACP-Weather” were all blinking in the web console.

    I remoted into the dome to verify that the dome was closed, and the dome and mount had both parked.

    The logs showed:
    Weather Safety... script initiated
    Closing Dome Shutter.
    ...scope is connected, parking now
    AAG_ACPWeatherFeed (v7.20) - SAFE
    AAG_ACPWeatherFeed (v7.20) – UNSAFE

    The dome had closed, and the mount was parked, and their interfaces confirmed their state was parked. The driver logs of the mount confirmed a parked was called and had occurred. I left the observatory in this state for a few hours, just to see if anything would change. It stayed like this, nothing changed.

    I am happy that the dome closed, and the mount parked. I appears that ACP is waiting for something. The Scheduler dispatcher remained active, and the console echoed any weather state changes.
