Not 100% sure about this but IIRC, the last byte (digit) of the mount's IP address when using the access-point mode should correspond to your CP's serial number, (if you have not changed the default

Hi Bryan, You have already figured the following out but for the sake of other people who wouldn't have yet the FOV for ASTAP is the field height (in degrees) of the image you're trying to solve. So

I like using the IP address with my ethernet and yours do not seem to match. I'm not sure if this works the same way as with ethernet but I would try that first Best, Tom -- CN: HasAnyoneSeenMyNeblua

is that the correct port number? mine is set to 4030 but that is for a different mount. -- Brian Brian Valente portfolio brianvalentephotography.com

I'm trying to get SkySafari on iOS (and MacOS) to work with the builtin wifi on a AP1100GTO. I've got the network configured to connect to the GTOCP4 wifi, and verified the connection by visiting

I was able to successfully install Keypad version 4.19.3. Whew!!!! Shall I try installing Keypad version 4.19.5 again or should I wait? Are you in the process of investigating that there may be an

OK. I'll re-install 4.9.13. Peter

AP GTO Keypad firmware v.4.19.3 is loaded using a Windows program that you install. It shouldn’t care whether the GTOCP4’s firmware is VCP4-P01-xx or VCP4-P02-xx. The Java loader used with

Hi Ray and AP community, As promised, I had the chance to test the new version. It seems to work like a charm ! I did only a couple of slew / center / syncs and I haven't received a sigle warning /

Perhaps Wes but I would not recommend it. But I DO recommend the boards be installed by AP if your mount can take them. My Parallax 250 Observatory mount uses the AP servo system. It's a good 12 to

Wes, I don't know. I asked that question because I wanted to do it myself for my 400 mount. Unfortunately, they don't have an ESD board for this mount so I never found out. Thanks, Scott

Bryan, Regarding ASTAP plate solves, you can look at the APPM logs to see the command line arguments passed to APPM. If you set all of ASTAP values to zero in APPM’s plate solve tab and check

Ray Thanks for the new BETA 1.9.1.3. A few comments follow. Your insight IS appreciated. I hope these are helpful to others. · Program installed without issue. (1100 GT non-AE) ·

Should I install CP4-P01-14 in CP4 so I can re-install keypad 4.19.3? If successful, I then can re-install VCPx-P02-08 in CP4? Peter

Hi Marty, Unfortunately, there is not a TPoint translator nor a way to manually select stars at this time. What is the field of view of your setup and pixel dimensions of the sensor? -Ray

Version 4.19.5 keypad firmware is available for download? Is this a recent development or did this happen many moons ago? I thought 4.19.3 was the current version- guess I'm wrong about this. Fernando

T-point cannot provide dual-axis tracking with AP mounts…only APCC can do that. Regards, George George Whitney Astro-Physics, Inc. Phone: 815-222-6538 (direct line) Phone:

I use APPM with great results on my Mach2 with the 130mm refractor. I have been unable, after a year of effort, to build a APPM model on my 1100 with the 300mm f/15 Cassegrain. The FOV and the pixel
