Hi Marj Thank you for response. A bit pity,as this puts Mach-1 behind MyT in terms of suitability for fully roboticuse. I know most "mount lost" problems are due to human errors,but - that happens and

I understand your logic and reasoning but what is changed between the 1March and all other nights when i worked and i have a site from which i can work most nights. I never had this problem and i am

I have thought about putting limits on my AP1200. I found that I could sense the position of a strong magnet placed inside my AP1200 rotating base (right through the mount wall) with a hall effect

Hi, Are you running the latest ASCOM-V2 driver ver.5.07.02? Next, run the ASCOM V2 driver “SETUP TELESCOPE utility,and double check its “current site” Lat/Long. You may want to repeat

I have changed nothing in my setup ; when i connect maxim the ascom driver starts and i have the mount automatically unparked , all parameters well and also this time all seemed correct, but when i

Hmmm. So does TSX think your latitude is S or N? I had a number of parameters get toggled by who knows what. It happened when I reconnected my camera after sending it for service. All sorts of pop-ups

When i'm connected i was under the horizon line many degrees and i saw not the north pole but the south pole..., but i have not measured how many and where pointed the yellow dot, but i have pointed

Can you say more about that last point Carmine? Stuart -- Stuart Heggie http://www.stuartheggie.com/featured.html

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

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:
