i'll give that a try. May be a week or two before I can.

Is it possible that after slewing to M76, a "park" was issued and before ASCOM/driver could respond or the mount move, there was a slew issued? dave

Well, in any event it sounds like its not serious. Thanks for looking.

thanks,,,,but a question because i am still confused......according to APCC log.....the mount had slewed to M76 and "at park" was true...and when told to slew to Sh2-234 got the exception because it

I think this says it all! The mount needs to be unparked before attempting a slew. -Ray

It sounds like the ASCOM hub is blocking APCC in some way. I'll see if it is possible to move the hub off to another thread so they won't interfere. If I can do that, it will be in the next

Marty, Can you expose a little longer, say 10 seconds, to get a deeper image? -Ray

The mount is parked and is being asked to slew. That is not a legal operation. Matt should unpark the mount if it is parked and CCD Commander wants to slew the mount. 335589 2021-11-03 01:59:07.122:

are you using an automated rotator?-- Brian Brian Valente portfolio brianvalentephotography.com

Should this be done seasonally? (For those of us in northern climates?) Should this be done after updating a PEC curve? Should this be done after changing controllers? Should this be done after a

For the record, last night's Park 3 was bang on the alignment notches.

Hi Ray, I am getting this error from ASCOM/driver "check_connected: Exception : bMustNotBeParked and g_bParked: True, True : SlewToCoordinatesAsyn" Do you have any insight on this exception and

The accuracy of the the 1st GoTo is very minor to me, as it is easily corrected. My main concern is having the best reference point for the camera levels to set camera rotation, as that will impact

Ray. It seems to happen when I am either accessing or closing the ASCOM Hub Properties. I switchde from using the ASCOM Hub to the ASCOM Lunatico driver and I dont seem to get the error anymore.

Hi Ray... I have not tried the automatic TPoint modeling methodology yet. To my uneducated eyes, it seems the problem is that the platesolving routines, given the very low FoV, cannot identify enough

Mark, The slight offset is due to ReCals that may have been done during the course of the night. The next night when you resume from Last Parked, your GoTo to the first object will be more

Hi Tom, No, the Mount doesn’t need to be initialized. I was out with my 1100 with CP4 last night. I hadn’t used it for a while and had the same problem as you, SkySafari wouldn’t connect with

Hi Mark in my experience, that slight offset is normal and results from the more accurate axis positioning from the plate solving that happens with NINA (I use SGP and it's the same). Assuming the

A couple of weeks ago I received my new AP1100, and I am familiarizing myself with it. The only other mount I have had is a G11, which has a simple, straight-forward operation, with integrated levels

Hi David, I'm sure it's a false alarm by Kaspersky. All of the other utilities show it's
