PlaneWave Tools

2.9.0.0 - 2024-08-17

  • Added Load Model instruction. This loads a specified PointXP model file into PWI4 to use as the active mount model.

2.8.1.0 - 2024-08-09

  • Fixed a bug concerning PWI4 version parsing

2.8.0.0 - 2024-03-16

  • Added the Shutter Control (PWI4) instruction to control CDK and PW1000 mirror shutters via PWI4. PWI4 version 4.1.3 added support for controlling shutters. This functionality replaces the separate PlaneWave Shutter Control app.
  • Internal functions that query PWI4's status API have been made more efficient through the use of caching. Contributed by Stefan Berg.

2.7.0.0 - 2024-01-21

  • Changes to backend utility class to fix retrying PWI4 API queries upon failure, plus some additional touch-ups. Contributed by Stefan Berg.

2.6.0.0 - 2024-01-21

NOTICE: As of this release, the PWI3-specific instructions (Start/Stop PWI3, Fan Control (PWI3), and Delta-T Control (PWI3)) are deprecated and will be removed in a future release. Please switch to using the PWI4-based replacements as soon as possible. PWI 4.1.0 and later contains the mount/OTA fan and heater controls that prior versions of PWI 4.0 lacked.

The two following instructions were introduced to permit fan and heater control via PWI 4.1.0 and later:

  • Added Fan Control (PWI4)
  • Added Heater Control (PWI4)

The two following instructions were renamed to denote that they are specific to PWI3:

  • Renamed Fan Control to Fan Control (PWI3)
  • Renamed Delta-T Control to Delta-T Control (PWI3)

Other changes:

  • M3 Control: M3 status check was made more efficient to avoid an extra call to the PWI4 API
  • Plugin framework retargeted to .NET 8
  • Migrated file dialogs to CommunityToolkit.Mvvm
  • Minimum supported NINA version is now 3.0 Beta 1

2.4.0.0 - 2.5.0.0

  • Unreleased builds

2.3.0.0 - 2023-10-03

  • Fixed parsing of boolean key:value pairs in the PWI4 API status response
  • Enhanced validation of M3 device presence in the M3 Control instruction

2.2.0.0 - 2023-09-30

  • Added TLE Follow and PlaneWave-specific Set Tracking instructions to enable the input and tracking of objects via Two-Line Element ephemeris definitions. Thanks to Nick Hardy for providing these.
  • Added Shutter Control instructions to control CDK700 and PW1000 shutters via PlaneWave Shutter Control
  • Various small fixes and code cleanups to validation logic
