APCC does not use the ASCOM driver, so there is no circular path. The *ONLY* purpose for APCC starting the ASCOM driver is to keep the ASCOM driver open during a session. This saves a few

That's good to know, Ray. The next time my ASCOM driver is still open after disconnecting all clients, I'll first check this to see how many the driver thinks are still connected, then double-click it

The ASCOM window shows the MOUNT it's controlling, but not the clients that are using it. I don't have APCC (yet), so I can't answer that. --- Mike

For me, the driver closes automatically when all clients are disconnected from the mount. Occasionally some kind of glitch might leave it running after all connections are closed, and the only way

Thank you, Roberto! -Ray

Ray Thank you for addressing this so fast. Will test the new version asap - possibly tonight. Regards Roberto

Hi Rouz, Yes, there was a change to APPM to use the Real-time RADec feature to get the RA and Dec from the mount with less latency. The installed APCC Pro 1.9.0.9 has an extra character (":") in the

I had similar trouble last month during the full moon when I was able to first test the new software version. After a few nights when I could test before the moon rose, the mapping runs worked

Nothing to do with domes or specific setups. It’s a BUG in the new version of APPM. Stay with 1.9.0.7. Roberto

I use a Dome but its a slave to Nina and not connected to APPM. So APPM doesn't really see the dome I believe.

Are any of you using domes?

Yeah exactly the same issues here. 1.9.0.07 was working but unfortunately the clouds rolled in and I couldn't finished the model. I was hoping on having the model done ready for the next session,

I am seeing similar behavior with the latest APCC version, using APPM w SkyX on my 1200/cp4. The RA errors are extremely large while the model is running, though they vary. When the model is

If I wanr to close the driver the only way I can do it is by clicking the "OK" button. The normal cross at the top right hand side has never worked for me. Is this a feature, or am I missing

Also slew warning message appearing after every slew. Takes 5-10 seconds before allowing image to be taken.

Same problem here. Large RA errors. Nothing to do with telescope or mount setup. I did not try to roll back to 1.9.0.7 but will do. I tried both Pinpoint Full and ASTAP. I’m using a 1600GTO.

I'm in the same thing, trying to get SGP and APCC to work together on the meridian flip and I have a question. Reviewing the different settings I see that Flip Offset allows to set a period of time

Thanks Brian, will look it up.
