There's too many variables to say exactly. It depends on how much free time I can get to work on it over the holidays. -Ray

Ray, I don't know if others are having this problem but when I try to download V2.37 the download speed drops to less than 6KB/sec. Are you having a problem with your server. I have been able to

Hi Ray: Now that you mention that "AP has me working on a replacement to PulseGuide" Any idea when it be released? Bob delta replacement to

Hi Pierre, The orientation doesn't matter. Pulseguide just measures the RA/Dec delta over time. However, it is important to have PEC on and trained to get an accurate RA rate change calculation. If

Hi Ray, 1) inversion of values: I just noted the following in the help "If the Dec rate in the Pulse Guiding area is reversed in sign to the value in dDec then you need to swap the N/S buttons.

Hi Pierre. I'm not sure why you had to invert the values. It may have to do with the side of the mount that the scope is on. BTW, did you get the new version of PulseGuide that I sent you

Hi All, I am experimenting PulseGuide V1.30 and have noticed some strange things happening in the Pulse Guider tab. I use my CCD as an autoguider for the "Measure rate tool". The rates derived look

Hi Drew, Sure, you could purchase the upgrade license in advance. I will leave the capability to authenticate an upgrade available until everyone that has purchased an upgrade has done so. -Ray

I have an AP1200 shipping today (12/19) or tomorrow. It may arrive the last day or two of December but might not until Jan 2 or 3. So I don't have the Pempro AP special edition yet but will get

Hi Ruben, No, orthogonality has no appreciable effect on the procedure. No, it shouldn't either. The longer focal length of the SCT will magnify the drift, but the refractors will cool off much

Thanks Steve, Chris, and Bryon for your feedback! -Ray

Hi Pierre, As a test I've made the appropriate changes in Pulseguide to read/write in the 0-360 range and I found that the firmware _is_ saving longitude correctly - at least in Rev I of the

Hi Bryon, The arrangement was between AP and CCDWare to allow PEMPro AP SE to be shipped only with 900GTO's and AP1200GTO's. The Mach1 Goto wasn't announced until much later. -Ray

Thanks Ray, I just purchased the Pempro2 upgrade and will try the polar align feature when the weather clears. Three questions: 1. I have a bit of an orthogonality issue. Will this affect

Hi Ray, Just a curiosity question about why PemPro AP version is not also shipped with the Mach1? I'm purely visually but I'm sure some of the ones looking into imaging with this mount might also

Hello Ray, Just wanted to say "thanks" for the very generous offer. As PEMPro SE is shipped free with our mounts, this is indeed a gift. Looking forward to the added benefits of version 2! Merry

Hi Roland, Last night I got a chance to try guiding again with the new 1200. I disconnected the STV from my guide scope, FS60C, and instead tried the small Starlightxpress SXV guide head I've had

Hi Ray, Understood, but I would like to be able to use the keypad as well: it is not practical to have a PC with PulseGuide running with me all the time ! This issue must be corrected (and I am more

Hi Pierre/others, I have confirmed from the firmware author that the ranges -180 to 180 and 0 to 360 are both valid inputs to the controller. However he indicated that someone should try to validate

Dean: No need to part with the STV. When I moved from a ST-4 to the STV the learning curve was more than I expected. At first, with my AP1200GTO I was getting 'sine wave' oscillations. This was
