Allows you to specify a drift scan: motion at a constant velocity along a great circle. ... The path starts at the new object position (though the telescope actually intersects the path later, see Subtleties ). ... Note that the units are always /sec for both axes. ... The velocity along the path is 0.01 /sec. ... The path is assumed to start when you hit the Slew button (more precisely, when the TCC parses the command). However, it takes the telescope awhile to slew to meet the specified path. ...
