Skywatcher Virtuoso GTi (130p/150p) - does it "send" aiming info back to the app
Short version: when using this telescope in "Freedom Find" mode (clutches unlocked), it supposedly doesn't lose tracking. What I'm wondering is - if I have it linked to something like Sky Safari or another application, will I be able to point the scope and have the aiming/tracking data sent \*to\* the application?
Longer: Based on my understanding of the "not losing tracking" being based on a set of encoders, it \*should\* be possible, but I don't know if that's actually implemented, or if interfacing with an external application is one-way only, as in "click on the place you want to look, the telescope aims there).
I've been struggling with the terminology here, apologies! I've been looking into adding one of these sorts of tracking scopes to my collection (GSO 8" Dobs "Z8," Nikon 10x50 binoculars). But, it's less interesting to me if it's "one-way." That'll be fun for me for a bit, and for showing to new people, but I'm more excited about being able to track what I'm looking at, etc!
Reading the manual hasn't made this clear, unfortunately.
