I have imaged quite a bit with an 8" EdgeHD. In my opinion, an OAG (or ONAG) is required with these scopes. I did my testing on an AP1600 with Absolute Encoders and a tracking model

Hi mike Have you tried the auto configure ASCOM driver button in apcc? -- Brian Brian Valente portfolio brianvalentephotography.com

1) What mount do you have. 2) there is On-axis guiding also a possibility. Rolando

I normally run the AP V2 Driver off a virtual port from APCC, but the other night I switched it over to run the AP V2 Driver directly off the ethernet COM port without APCC. I changed the settings in

I am guiding with an OAG on a C11" EdgeHD @ f/10 with a ZWO ASI6200mm Pro but finding guide stars all night long can sometimes be a challenge. My primary mirror is locked down and focus is performed

My setup is a Startech 7 port USB on the OTA going to the Kingdel control computer by the scope. A router connects it to my monitoring computer in the house. I just got this to process large QHY600

Thanks for the suggestion Bryan. I had thought about a TV but wasn't sure it would work. Intel docs and Google searches didn't make it clear. I'll continue to research it some more. Richard.

Out here on the left coast at the dark sky sites, it tends to get HOT during the day. And COLD at night…. It dips down into the low 40s .. Brrrrrr. So when I’m at a dark sky site imaging

Hi Marcelo, Thank you very much for sharing your experience. You are likely right that changing the camera weight could have an effect. Assuming that the camera weight is about the same, and the

Richard NUCs typically have an HDMI output. Do you have a TV (or even a streaming device, e.g. Roku) with HDMI input? Bryan

I also currently run a laptop with a Pegasus Astro Powerbox Advance on a Mach1 and it certainly simplifies cable management. I initially tried a Lenovo X1 Carbon but had it freeze up at low

There is one thing that could cause a sudden stop at the end of a slew, and that is a low voltage at the terminals of the CP4. This can be caused by the power cord being too long, or by the power

What color is your light on the CP4 controller? Does it turn yellow when it finishes slewing? Roland

The mount has a ramp-up and ramp-down and does NOT stop instantly. This is an error of some kind that we will figure out. Roland

I have a conference call with Mike and Dave early tomorrow on another issue which may be related. I will bring this up at the same time. Thanks Roland. Craig

This is definitely a configuration item we should have available. For light payloads it is not that big an issue, but with much heaver payloads it becomes quite significant. Setting the ramp up and

Call AP tomorrow, ask for Mike. Tell him what's happening and we'll try to figure out how to do a remote session to find the error. Our mounts have always had a ramp-up and a ramp-down. Never an

Agreed. My Pegasus power/USB hubs vastly simplify and shorten the cables attached to rotator, flip-flat, focuser, imaging camera, guide scope, dew heater, etc. I use on on both my Mach2 and 1100GTO

I have used the same model with both an ASI 1600 and an ASI 294 with an Esprit 100 and it works perfect. Of course, the sensor size is almost the same, as well as its weight, so you could say that in
