Re: APCC model files: which files to ask for help
Andrea,
The logs did not make it. You'll need to create a public download link to the zip file via Dropbox, Google Drive, One Drive, etc.
And APCC is compatible with SkyX. Lots of people use APCC

Re: Guiding a Mach 2 in PHD2 ( and NINA)
Thanks Linwood,
very helpful.
Yesterday I was in hurry and very lucky to understand the basics for saving the night, the calibration happened almost by chance as I couldn't find a calibrate button

Re: tracking with APCC 1.9 doesn't work with skyx
hi Ray,
I sent you the logs in the other thread.
The tracking issue started before the modeling.
I don't use skyx as planetarium only, but I use skyx camera add on for about everything:
-I connect

Hi,

I’m going to chime in on this one…
I know it’s just a joke and honestly I chuckled, but…
It’s a proven fact that there are different methods by which people learn the best. Undiagnosed

Hi Andrea,
First, tracking quality is independent of whatever planetarium program you are using. However, you don't say that you are doing this, but since you are using SkyX this applies: you should

Even with all of that technology, there would still be many people who wouldn't open the manual to figure out how to unpack it (such as my brother).
