Ok, thanks Ray. I understand the APPM benefit but didn't think it was for those of us using the mount in a portable fashion. So I have some questions into George on results. Terri

No, ASCOM clients always call the AP V2 driver, which can start APCC if it is not already started, then the driver connects to APCC. Just running APCC Pro initially won't make a difference in

Hi Ray, thank you for your very fast responses. So if I might ask another follow-on: If I install APCC, and call the telescope from either CDC or SGPro, does it call APCC then versus the V2

Reading the recent posts about new Mach2 owners and the APCC software has me wondering how things are going with the hand paddle software upgrade. My plan is to use the new Mach2 like I have been

You use the threaded adapter that is made for the AP900 mount. Terri

There is no need to uninstall first. You can install over the top either going to a newer or older version of the driver. The same is true for APCC. You don't need to uninstall first when installing

Hi Wayne, thanks You will enjoy the polemaster. I used mine last night. You can use it as soon as the lowest gain settings allow you to see polaris and at least one of the surrounding stars that

Wayne, how are you attaching your pole master to the Mach2 TJF 📱

Ray, do you suggest I try re-installing the 5.30.8 driver and give it another try. Should I do an uninstall first, or just install over the top? best, Terri

Hi Ray, I did find this.. and have read some of the setup information. It wasn't a poke, it was just me articulating (maybe poorly) that I need to educate myself and figure out what I can make use of

Hi Terri, I'm absolutely sure whatever issue you saw with had nothing to do with the 5.30.08 driver. The only change was to add the missing custom slew rate option. -Ray Gralak Author of APCC

Good morning Terri! Good idea on sharing. My email is wayneh9026@.... I did refresh to the new ASCOM version but didn’t run into that issue. I’m not familiar with CDC. With respect to

Hi everyone, There have been a few issues reported within the last couple days in APCC having to do with the encoder status and the missing option for setting a custom slew rate. All of the reported

Hi Yves, There was a problem but it should be fixed in the latest builds, 1.8.0.4 Standard and 1.8.0.5 Pro. -Ray Gralak Author of APCC (Astro-Physics Command Center):

Hi Terri, APCC provides numerous features. Here is a link to a list of some of them: https://www.siriusimaging.com/Help/APCC/features.htm -Ray Gralak Author of APCC (Astro-Physics Command Center):

Those are the default uninitialized values which just weren't getting updated. The new builds, 1.8.0.4 and .5, fix this. -Ray Gralak Author of APCC (Astro-Physics Command Center):

Hi Stacey, Alt/Az is being calculated from site latitude, RA, Dec and local sidereal time. When the mount is stopped RA is changing so depending on exactly when RA and sidereal time is polled there

Hi Yves, This should be fixed in 1.8.0.4/5, which is available now. -Ray Gralak Author of APCC (Astro-Physics Command Center):

Hi Michael, We are discussing this option. Thanks for the suggestion! -Ray Gralak Author of APCC (Astro-Physics Command Center):
