Selects the COM Port that the MaxDome controller is plugged into.  
 
The location of the dome Home Position sensor determines the value for Home 
(deg). Enter the azimuth for the dome when it is at the Home Position sensor. 
This is necessary for MaxDome to know where it is pointed.  
 
If you wish to park the dome when you are not using it at a different azimuth, 
enter an azimuth in Park (deg).  
 
Tics Per Revolution must be set accurately in order to have correct dome 
positioning. Each tic is one half rotation of the motor drive shaft. If the shaft goes 
through 275 half-turns in a full rotation, enter 275.  
 
Instead of counting shaft rotations, it is much simpler to click the Auto Calibrate 
button. The dome will start rotating until it finds the home position. It will then 
move slightly, and search for home again. During this time, it will count the total 
motor tics. Once it is done it will enter the value for you. 
 
Click OK when you are done. The dome is now ready for use.
