Re: Autoguiding with a Sky Model in Place?
Hi Craig,
Yes I do see the spiking as you described. Could you please tell me where to find the setting to have a delay? I did not see it when looking under the Brain in PhD2.
Thank you,
Phillip

Re: Autoguiding with a Sky Model in Place?
Phillip,
Is your auto-guiding graphc really “spiky”, flipping back and forth over the centerline? If it is, then you might try introducing a short delay after each auto-guiding correction. I

The three mounts are 1600 mounts.
What is the aperture of the Moonraker?

Re: Mach1 (spring loaded vers) has gear slop?
Thanks Rolando. I wondered if it was "sky" but seems to have been bad a month or more. But you're sharing pretty much same skies as me. So I'll see how it goes. Thanks for the reply.
Still my shots

Re: Com ports

How did your software know to make those associations?
Somewhere, sometime, SOMEONE had to tell the software what ports to use. Does your software have a Detect button for the camera or focuser?

With device management open I see comport(4)QSI
comport(3)-focuser
After connecting MBoxV2 a second comport(3) appears. When that happens neither the focuser or the Box connects.
