Re: Mach2 CP5 Orthogonality Model

Hi John,
You don't need to capture a "good" ortho model to "erase" it. Just run the keypad procedure, but do NOT make any N-S-E-W centering corrections. This will produce an ortho model with zero

Got a model built using ASTAP with Beta 1.9.1.3. Did not work at bin 2, but did work at bin 1 with min star at 1.0.
Thanks Ray.

Re: APCC Meridian Tracking Limits and Sequence Generator Pro
That's not going to work because you can't guarantee that SGPro won't issue a slew after the meridian.
Without APCC actually setting the meridian delay SGPro would not expect the mount to flip if it

Re: APCC Meridian Tracking Limits and Sequence Generator Pro
"CW up slews" invokes APCC to change the meridian delay. With it off, the appropriate action will be taken when the limit is reached, but any slew to the West side from a counterweight-up position
