Re: AP1200 operation via external programs
Nicolas:
I should probably read ahead, but here goes: The problem with asking
multiple client programs to support special interfaces is -- it
defeats the whole reason for a driver in the first place.

Re: AP1200 operation via external programs
Hi Ray,
Any chance of adding joystick support? I've gotten used to using my
wireless logitech wingman with my CGE for slewing, changing button
speeds, etc., and it would be great to have that

Re: Slight RA jump on DEC direction reversal
Hi Pete,
I don't think this is normal. I suggest you run the diagnostic
routine in PulseGuide and send the results to Roland.
Also, 3 seconds of DEC backlash seems a bit excessive to me.

Slight RA jump on DEC direction reversal
A quick question... In adjusting my DEC backlash today (which seems to
be at about 3 seconds at 0.5x speed), I noticed that RA "jumps" a bit
down when DEC is reversed.
Is this a normal thing? Can it

Re: Pier height selection help needed...
Edd,
There is a semi permasmile on my face thanks to the arrival of the
AP160 and which is about to become a permanent permasmile with the
arrival of the AP1200GTO.
Oh how many times I have pulled

Re: Pier height selection help needed...
I ordered the 54" pier and hopefully will be able to provide feedback
and experience shortly upon the arrival of the new AP1200GTO which
will gracefully host my baby (AP160).

For the version number, look under help. Microsoft can come up with some bizarre results at times if you look at the files properties.

Re: AP1200 operation via external programs
Hi John,
I've suggested to Roland in the past that there should be a more rigid
packet protocol like what Bisque uses. In fact, that is what I thought
he meant in his message about a week ago.
