Send a string comand to the telescope, returning a true/false response
Remarks: If you use this feature of the Telescope driver interface, your application will be dependent on
the low-level protocol used by the particular scope you are connected to.

Returns the declination (degrees) of the telescope's current local topocentric equatorial coordinates
Remarks: Reading the property will raise an error if the value is unavailable.
Returns descriptive and version information about this ASCOM Telescope driver
Remarks: This string may contain line endings and may be hundreds to thousands of characters long.
Returns the right ascension (hours) of the telescope's current local topocentric equatorial coordinates
Remarks: Reading the property will raise an error if the value is unavailable.
Returns the right ascension tracking rate offset from sidereal (seconds per sidereal second, default = 0.0)
Remarks: The range of values supported is telescope specific.
Returns the local apparent sidereal time from the telescope's internal clock
Remarks:Reading the property will raise an error if the value is unavailable.
Returns the elevation above mean sea level (metres) of the site at which the telescope is located
Remarks: Setting this property will raise an error if the given value is outside the range -300 through +10000 metres.
Returns the geodetic(map) latitude (degrees, positive North) of the site at which the telescope is located
Remarks: Setting this property will raise an error if the given value is outside the range -90 to +90 degrees.
Returns the longitude (degrees, positive East) of the site at which the telescope is located
Remarks: Setting this property will raise an error if the given value is outside the range -180 to +180 degrees.
Returns the local topocentric declination (degrees, positive North) for the target of a slew or sync operation
Remarks: Setting this property will raise an error if the given value is outside the range -90 to +90 degrees.
Returns the local topocentric right ascension (hours) for the target of a slew or sync operation
Remarks: Setting this property will raise an error if the given value is outside the range 0 to 24 hours.
Returns the UTC date/time of the telescope's internal clock
Remarks: Reading the property will raise an error if the value has never been set or is otherwise unavailable.
True if this telescope is capable of programmed slewing (synchronous or asynchronous)
Remarks: If this is true, then only the synchronous slewing methods are guaranteed to be supported.
Move the telescope to its home position and stop tracking motion
Remarks: Raises an error if there is a problem communicating with the telescope or if parking fails.
True if this telescope is capable of programmed slewing (synchronous or asynchronous)
Remarks: If this is true, then only the synchronous slewing methods are guaranteed to be supported.
Sets the declination (degrees) of the telescope's current local topocentric equatorial coordinates
