Michael did you a tracking or pointing model active at the time of the flip?

Hello everyone, I've been unable to get my Mach1 to perform a smart meridian flip through NINA. Each time the program indicates the time of flip and has the linked .mlm file but before the flip

Can you provide the NINA log file from an example session so we can see what's going on from NINA's point of view?

Linwood --- The object was IC 1396 and the RA is correct (21:39:09). According to my meridian limits, the eastern limit is 01:12:18 (based upon interpolation of the data in the tracking limit

Ray, Yes it does, slews the mount, NINA slews the mount to target, but I don't think I have manual control except park. When I tried to guide with PHD2, the mount stops tracking. This is with 5.50.3.

That is indeed a faint object, nicely done. Unfortunately I tried a 5 minute shot of luminance and got nothing but sky fog due to my severe local light pollution. I pretty much need to stick to

Thanks, I uploaded a revised version which shows the detail a bit better: https://www.astrobin.com/full/m6n3a0/B/?mod=&real= Rolando

Spectacular! 😎 Pete

The “Voyager” looks to be on its way!!! Most impressive! 😎 Pete

I suggested LBN 438, and I'm pleased to report that my sky cooperated. Here is 12.8 hours over two successive nights: <http://astronomy.mdodd.com/nebulae-33.html> Clear and steady skies with good

Nice work Roland. I noticed something in the image I've never noticed before in images of M27, and that's what seems to be a distinct jet coming from the central star at~4 o'clock , if that's indeed

Ray, I think so but I'll check when I get back home. Thank you, David P Messier 860-823-8820

Interesting. I just got done posting to Discord about a similar issue and haven't heard back yet. I had the smart meridian flip working very reliably several months ago and took some time off and

David, As a test, does the AP Jog utility, which is included with the driver, connect to the mount and stay connected? -Ray

The new scope 110 GTX has been given the name "Voyager"? Wow, I wasn't aware of that- I gotta read the messages here more often 🤔 Fernando

Ray That was in 5.21, no error message, appeared to connect but wasn't. Connect and disconnect within a second. Version 5.50.3 connects with everything but when I start guiding the mount stops

Hi Dale, Detonated! Wow, that's something I haven't heard about the AP V2 driver. :-) What error message did NINA get from the ASCOM driver? -Ray

Production field flattener and F5 compressor are not finished yet. Will let you all know in due time. Rolando

Very nice. Thanks for the 110 update Roland. Looking forward to the product release. Eric
