Marj, Any hints on what will be in version 5.0? Harold

yes it was a big error because i have the planetary reversed at south pole.

no Stuart i haven't keypad attached because this port is used to connect another pc that works separately with another optic.

Carmine, do you have the hand controller attached? Did you use it during this process? Another thing that happened to me with TSX and my AP900 CP2 was the timezone offset got reversed. It went from -5

I have had a big misalignment in SkyX when opened after unparking; i have CP3 and park position 4; is there an holdover of the leap year bug? Carmine

Marj Would it be possible to retrofit-equip home/limit switch capability on 900/1200 mounts upgraded with the CP-4 utilizing possibly some type of magnetic reed or optical switch affixed to the RA &

The limit/home switch inputs for the GTOCP4 will be available initially for 3600 mounts with this option. They will need a new cable. We plan to make this option available for 1100 and 1600 mounts

I’m sorry, the reticle jack is gone, as well. Clear Skies, Marj Christen Astro-Physics, Inc 11250 Forest Hills Rd Machesney Park, IL 61115 Phone: 815-282-1513 Fax:

Hi Jim, We needed to make room for new functions and decided to remove the focuser control. Most modern electric focuser control uses its own software. I apologize if this is an inconvenience for

We will provide more information shortly. Clear Skies, Marj Christen Astro-Physics, Inc 11250 Forest Hills Rd Machesney Park, IL 61115 Phone: 815-282-1513 Fax:

Dear Gene, I’m sorry that the focuser and reticle jacks are both gone. Modern focusers now are all driven by their own software and we needed to free up some real estate on the CP4. I apologize

We are already working on the next version 5. Clear Skies, Marj Christen Astro-Physics, Inc 11250 Forest Hills Rd Machesney Park, IL 61115 Phone: 815-282-1513 Fax:

David, Getthe genuine article -- FTDI USR232-10 from Mouser Electronics or DigiKey forsomething like $24. This is the smooth white one with blue L.E.D. lightsand a 10cm USB cable. Can't go wrong.

I have been using two of these for several years and am very pleased. One is for the mount and the other is for my Takometer. 1 Port Professional USB to Serial Adapter Cable with COM Retention

David, I would trust Startech. However I used my “single” cable DB serial/USB adapter by “Sabrent”,and I made sure I chose the FTDI implementation of it (bought at Tiger Direct ).I

Thanks very much to all who replied. I will install the v. 4.19.2 update later. Still need a recommendation for an FTDI USB-to-Serial adapter... Thanks again! David Illig

Larry, Calculations based on “0” are problematic, so we choose a tiny offset. Regards, George George Whitney Astro-Physics, Inc. Phone: 815-282-1513 Email: george@...

I've noticed that everything I looked at by Sabrent received glowing revues. Their USB Hubs have thousands of positive comments. Gregory Gig Harbor, WA. On 2/29/2016 8:42 AM,

Hi Roland et al @ AP I have a question regarding CP-4 - ithas home switch inputs. How it is intended to operate? Will I have an APdriver / ASCOM accessible "home now" command which would slewthe mount

Count me among the (few?) users of the focuser jack on the CP3 to control a Moonlite focuser. I just placed my order for a CP4 and didn't even think about checking for a focuser jack. I'm also
