George, You are on to an idea, I had not thought about removing the scope from the rings before attaching it to the mount. Park2 will now enable me to remove and place the scope on the open rings as

Shailesh, The advantage of Park 2 is that all you have to do is to set the scope into the rings and then you can let go…the scope will not fall out. Regards, George George

George, Thanks for your reply. Park2 and Park3 have similar height challenges for me (CWs down, RA vertical, only DEC changes), is there anyway to load the CWs later and have someone hold the CW shaft

Shaillesh, It is safest and easiest to load a scope by yourself in the Park 2 position. Regards, George George Whitney Astro-Physics, Inc. Phone: 815-222-6538 (direct line) Phone:

I have an AP1100 on a pier sitting about 59 inches above ground/concrete floor. To load a TEC 180FL at that height in the recommended Park 3 position (CWs down) is a stretch. Is it possible to load

I just re-greased my 1200GTO Mount following the instructions and it was a piece of cake. I highly recommend using the greases that AP sells as it comes with great instructions and some

Ray, Two thumbs up. But it still begs the question what the right SGP meridian settings are. It gives me pause to blindly trust how wells APCC "CW up in the East Limits" plays with SGP when nobody,

Thank you for the clarification Ray. Any idea if you are going to work to better integrate the functionality with NINA? At this time counterweight slews up are no issue for sure. However, I am

The popup message is old and should not include SGPro. I will remove that in the next build. -Ray

Ray, Here is a screenshot of the warning from APCC version 1.8.8.17. It includes SGPro. I plan on doing some supervised testing as time allows. I have definitely defined the limits precisely as

Hi Eric, That warning is for most applications *except* SGPro. If you follow the way I said to define the an East limit for both pier sides, APCC will work as expected with SGPro. -Ray

Hi, My AP1200 is a few years old now but still functions perfectly. I’m sure it’s overdue for a regrease etc. Could someone direct me to any help files on how to go about this. Had a quick search

Thanks! Will be trying it out when i get clear skies.

Certainly. Rolando

My comment about best practices are aimed at using the mount with the operator there at the mount. I would never recommend setting up an automatic remote system with scope starting or ending up in the

Oh boy. 😱🤕 That's too bad. I actually find myself grieving a bit like the loss of a friend. I wonder how bad the chip is and if it could be masked. I imagine it's languishing in some closet
