Hi Ray, the weather here in Quebec is bad since 10 days so I can't do some test myself. Hope this will change tomorrow. Yves Ray Gralak wrote: -- Yves Laroche, modérateur de la liste

Hi Yves, No, I would always leave the camera attached. It was so long ago since I last tried using TPoint that it could have been a number of different things that caused the problem. When I finally

OK, thanks, thought of doing yet another mapping run of 100 stars while it is 60 with 15% humidity tonight was a bit much....Yes, it was (last night) one of those Southern Arizona nights.

Hi Pat, If we EVER have any cloudless and rainless nights here again in San Jose I would actually be able to test this but I think you just need to adjust the Time Zone offset in the keypad and with

Hi Mike, You can send the time to the mount with Pulseguider but it won't do it automatically. It should not make any difference that it was still running after the mount was parked. -Ray

Hi Pat, If you are using TheSky 5.00.100, there is a bug in the initialisation process with Set GMT. The Set GMT will set your mount to +5 (EST) instead of +4 (DST). In TkeSky terminal box

I have had nothing but grief since we changed to daylight saving time. Will someone give me a list of things I need to do, or change when the time changes, in addition to changing the clock on my

I had similar behavior from my 900 after the time change for a couple of nights. Ray's Pulse Guider fixed the problem nicely I found. I set the keypad to the proper time zone and daylight savings

This is primarily for Ray, does your program work the same as the 1200 handpad in that it sends a time signal to the mount? Forgot to disconnect Pulse Guider PRIOR to parking with The Sky so mount

Nice Owl Bill. I have always been very pleased with the tracking abilities of these mounts. I've seen the mount bent over backwards and still guiding like a champ. Steve

My taget last night was the Owl Nebula (M97). After a few false starts with computer problems I got the image going. The tracking was a little more finicky than previous images I have been working
