Re: GTOCP4 Caps
I ordered the caps from Mouser today.
The 2 large were $13.35 each and the 3 small were $9.60 each. Like 80 in stock of each.

Re: Interesting Behavior with APCC Pro and Pegasus Astro UPBv2
Hi Wade,
You might want to check the PNT file to see if the temperatures were recorded in degrees C instead of degrees F. There will be no obvious sign of the wrong scale except that the values might

Re: AP1100 park position question
Thanks for the info Jack. I suspected as much. I checked ebay and they don't show and DL2s right now. I will have to keep my eyes open for one.

Re: Interesting Behavior with APCC Pro and Pegasus Astro UPBv2
Thanks for the update on this.
Wow, so I thought they had fixed this in the past because it was reported by some NINA users, then I was informed that Pegasus fixed it. I guess not. I run my own gear

Re: M 81
I think Kevin's approach is correct for CMOS. I have the 1600MM Pro and there just doesn't seem to be an advantage to long subs, although I've only done one galaxy and it was faint. The integration

Re: Interesting Behavior with APCC Pro and Pegasus Astro UPBv2
Yes, drift in the sky is perpendicular to the horizon, but depending on your object's Dec and your location on Earth, the drift can easily be equal in both axes, so resulting in a diagonal drift. Only

The Mach2 doesn't drift after pier flip, however it would not hurt to try this.
My version of Maxim6 is buggy in several ways also and at times it won't automatically change the pier side (sometimes

Try the adaptive check box under the guiding/advanced, pier flip. This fixed it for me. When it flips, it will sometimes drift out for 20 arcsecs or so, then figures out that it is going the wrong

I forget exactly how we configured it, but OnLogic has people you can email/call and they are really helpful. I think we just told them what we wanted and they made

Thanks Brian,
Is your 2nd drive internal or external? That’s what was confusing me at 1st, where is the data drive located because not all of their systems have a 2nd drive option.

Re: Thanks to AP stuff
Did you use the new Y cable for your test?
Here is a short test you can do:
1) using the new Y cable, plug the short RA cable into the Dec motor box.
2) turn on the power
3) press E-W buttons (do not
