Re: Mach 2 basic operation

I also use Stellarium to command the mount when slewing to objects and it couldn't be easier. Provided you are properly polar aligned, simply return the mount to its home position and slew to your object. I image with SGP and use PHD2 as a supplement for guiding. I have not yet built a model APCC. My workflow is as follows: 1. Polar align 2. Calibrate the mount in PHD2 (couldn't be easier). 3. Run my imaging sequence within SGP. The mach2 gets you so close to the framing I programmed into SGP on the first try that it rarely has to plate solve more than once. If I could figure it out, anyone could. I hear building a model is just as easy - I just haven't tried that yet.
