-====== How the "Park" position works with the Schulman Telescope ======
-On a general telescope park positions can be defined by a physical limit switch/indicator or
-through software by means of defining a particular telescope position.
-Some software programs also couple the position of "Park" with the action of
-moving to a park position and then turning off sidereal tracking. Not all software programs do this.
-===== Schulman Telescope Implementation of Park =====
-Different software programs handle Park in different ways:
-^Program ^ Behavior ^
-|**LCOGT GUI**|Park is a position only. Its state is asynchronous.|
-|**ACP**|Park will set park variable (recorded by ACP and LCOGT) to "parked",  send to the defined park position and turn off tracking|
-|**TheSky**|Connects to telescope via "ASCOM Mount." In this way, park is only a position.|
