Very cool! Thanks. Bryan Anyway, Cable will I

Anthony, Chuck, Richard and all the Gang! I'm sorry this took so long, but I had to start from scratch. Anyway, if you go to our Tech Support section on the website and look under either 900GTO or

Joe, OK, understood. The DMK firewire file is a bitmap file (not a FITS file). It was probably black because the driver for the camera does not support the DirectDraw callback interface. The Imaging

Ray, Sorry about the foobar.FIT part. foobar is used by unix-types to denote an unspecified item - its sort of a wildcard variable. Anyway, the Measure Now button on the Camera Information page

Hi Joe, Yes, there is another driver in the works but the current driver works so there is a problem with your PC somewhere. Just to be sure you don't have any residual components installed go to

Ray, I do not connect through the POTH. However, I must start the POTH, connect to the telescope simulator, disconnect from it and then select & setup the AP driver. If I do anything else I get the

Bob, Are you using the latest ASCOM driver - there's an update which isn't rolled into the platform install: v4.1.25 It's a separate download from the link below - it fixed some parking problems

Hi Bob, The new AP driver will be a hub so you can eliminate POTH. -Ray

Hi Ray: Just to make sure you are aware as you write the new Pulseguide driver, I need to attach ACP to the POTH driver first and then to the current ASCOM driver. If I don't, there some kind of

Jeff/Murray, I have such a soft spot for my AP1200GTO, I will be getting one (or two) more next year so that I can have multiple scopes up and running at the same time for imaging. Anthony. tendons

Hi Joseph, 1. You should not be using POTH. You should connect directly to the AP driver or things will not work correctly. Unfortunately I did not write that driver so I may not be able to help you

Thanks Ray, I was hoping you were going to be around this evening. I made some progress despite myself. I'll post some details here, but I am also willing to continue this in some other venue if you

I have a similar feeling w/ the AP1200... except I think its the tendons in my arms. I just feel really "pumped up" after setting it up! (sorry, couldnt resist.) _____ From:

Hi Joe, Try reinstalling the ASCOM 4.1 platform again. Do NOT install the 5.x beta (it is still a beta). Then update the astro-physics driver and just helper.dll. Update whichever driver PEMPRo asks

First, my apologies for probably being off topic ... I had PEMpro AP SE v1.7 working with my 900GTO a year ago. I now need to redo my PEC and want to use PEMpro V2 with my DMK31 'video camera'. So I

I do know someone interesting in ordering one of these, do you have a date in mind when they are avaiable. dean during question an and

Call me weird - but I get a bit of a buzz every time I take my 900 out for the night. I love good and fine machinery and equipment and this certainly falls into that category. I second the motion

You're right - the topic name was a bit harsh (more possessed than fried) but it's never amusing to lose a good night of viewing. By the way, as I said in my initial posting, this mount has

Well just so you know, I took my AP900 out to the Texas Hill Country over Thanksgiving, got it set up with my c9.25, camera, rotator, aol unit, and filter wheel (lots of weight). I decided to see

Hi Roland, I think the switches may be the beat overall idea. I understand the issue with the clutches, etc. I have installed one mechanical "kill switch" that shuts off mount power when the mount
