The format of the GoTo script file is a semicolon-separated file with an extension of “.goto”. Comment lines are preceded
by the pound symbol (#). The second line defines the field format (Zenith;Azimuth). The remaining lines define the
points to move to. An example is:
# Default
# Zenith;Azimuth
0;0
15;0
15;60
15;120
Control of the positioning is done from the trigger page. The “Goto accessory” and “Freshness” check boxes must be
set. Pressing the ”Record” button will start the pointing sequence.
