Re: Meridian Flip Feature Yet?
If you are connecting SkyX through the AP V2 ASCOM driver on Windows then you would not need to disconnect/reconnect anything.

Re: Meridian Flip Feature Yet?
The meridian's position doesn't change. It is the reference line across the sky from due North to due South.
Maybe you meant "meridian delay"?
Let me ask you this -- what if you could eliminate the

Hey Ray - you may want to reread what I wrote.
I offered to create a simple script for you for free. :-)
Or, you could upgrade to the GTOCP4.

Re: Meridian Flip Feature Yet?
Hi Ray,
Let's use your "other manufacturer" pier flip button as an example:
1. Say the mount is at (RA_1, Dec_1) - whatever coordinates those happen to be.
2. You click the "Pier Flip" and the mount

Mach2GTO Anderson Powerpole passthrough current rating
#Mach2GTO
How much current can I draw through the Anderson Powerpole passthrough on the Mach2GTO?
Or alternatively, what is the AWG & length of the internal wiring, and are the Powerpole connectors 15, 30 or

Re: Precise polar alignment of the azimuth axis
10 min. unguided at 2800mm FL is pretty darn good! Before I used SharpCap's method, I tried various manual drift techniques and only occasionally got it that good. (C11??) Now I understand that

I would convert it to run on the iPad. All I need is the commands and the logic.

Re: Meridian Flip Feature Yet?
The script I would write would only run on Windows. It would probably be in VbScript.
(BTW, Telnet is not a scripting language, so it would not work by itself).

Hi Nick,
I thought I saw in a post that you are using APCC?
APCC has a dedicated button to do a pier flip.

Yes, Ray, a script would be useful. I'd like to do a flip using telnet.

Aloha Ray,
Me to! just user error!
In regard to that high tracking rate that you saw, I looked for that also, but couldn't find it. Do you have a menu path to view that high tracking rate

Hi Ray,
I don't know, as I hardly use the keypad.
It's relevant because if a telescope mount has a physical stop, the telescope may never physically get into a position where a pier collision can
