Mind you, in my test, NO PLANETARIUM program was running
– absolutely nothing but APCC.
I let the “settling message” continue at Park-2 for a couple of minutes,
until it seemed it was NOT going to soon settle down. Could have waited longer,
but it already seemed to be stuck in an unreasonable delay.
I wonder if all motion had really ceased before
this wait, and the motors stopped, even as APCC waited for some kind of
oscillation to end.
BTW – it was a dead calm night, so no winds were buffeting the truss
tube.
Next time, I’ll repeat the test, and if it happens
again, give it say ... a half hour to finally come to rest.
