You should be able to mount the camera to your scope's finder bracket. Then send the mount to the north pole position so that the camera is looking at the pole. Then you can start your procedure.

No. QHY does not yet have an adapter for the AP mounts. They are working on one now . Yes, I could go to a machine shop and have them build one but, I am thinking the camera will work just as well if

Hi, You have until April 22nd for the reduced pricing, so not to worry. Once we start shipping, we’ll continue to ship GTOCP4 control boxes and new mount orders as they are completed and

I think it is another issue where serial frequently gets blamed for aUSB problem! DB-9's are SIGNIFICANTLY more reliable than USBconnectors. Christopher Erickson ConsultingEngineer Summit

I don’t know if this helps, but I use an "at-park" monitor at my remote observatory to verify my AP900/AP155 is safely stowed and to help reset if I lose my pointing. The model I have happens to be

Hello Marge, I am one of those who purchased your last batch of controllers. I see your first batch is going out and I still have to order mine. When do you think the next batch will go out? I

Chris, I recently replaced a perfectly good Contour RollerMouse with a new one only to discover that the USB cable was the actual culprit. I had tried unplugging and replugging multiple times, but

One big problem with USB connectors is that they get oxidized and/orcontaminated easily, causing all kinds of weird, intermittent,unpredictable problems. With the power off, try unplugging and

I thought they sold adapters for mach1. With my RAPAS I do get under 1 arc minute

Machining an adapter for various AP mounts would be a prettystraightforward project. Christopher Erickson ConsultingEngineer Summit Kinetics Waikoloa, HI96738 www.summitkinetics.com

This was a timely little thread, so glad I scanned thru it the other day. Tonight I went out to mess around a little and get things up and running as I mentally prepare to upgrade the imaging

As many of you know, QHY has a new device out called PolarMaster. Basically a camera that attaches to the front polar scope hole on many mounts, determines the center of rotation of the mount and then

OK Thanks!

MaxPoint works by changing the coordinates within a pointing command. The coordinates must go through MaxPoint in order for them to be altered. Hand controller pointing commands do not go through

Best to call either George or Howard while you are at the mount. They will advise you step by step. Rolando

Let me add that I did check the date and time as well and the site Lat and Long. Frank

Roland, sorry but I wasn't able to get to the observatory until today. My rig: Parallax Mount HD150C GTO CP3 Keypad Ver 4.17 As I stated in my first post. I followed the daytime polar alignment

Yes, please see this information. http://www.astro-physics.com/products/mounts/servodrive/cp4-upgrade.htm http://www.astro-physics.com/products/mounts/servodrive/gtocp4.htm Clear Skies,

Stuart, No, sorry I can’t do anything about the exchange rate. BTW, we are planning to attend AstroCATS in mid-May in London, Ontario. We hope to see lots of you Canadians there! The
