Re: Mount does not stop Update
There are two sets of software, the one in the keypad and the one in the
servo controller. These two are separate from each other and stand alone from each
other. Version 4.12 is the keypad

Satellite (ISS) tracking with AP1200GTO?
I took some video the other evening of the ISS traversing my sky, but
with the clutches off and trying to swing the mount by hand. I caught
a few frames in which the ISS appeared - more by good luck

Dean,
How is TheSky configured? Are you using the ASCOM or native driver? I can
see where conflicts can occur if TheSky is connected via native and Pulse
Guide by ASCOM. The proper way to connect

Re: Mount does not stop Update
Hi Howard,
I upgraded to the version 4.12 but before doing that moved Pulse
guide on the top serial port and the Sky on the bottom. I connected
Pulse Guide and then the sky. Issue still occurred.

This is now serious problem. I have changed power supplies and there
seems to be no issue with the gears. The software in the mount is
4.0x, is that the problem. This happens at any speed

Re: PEMPro questions
Ray,
May I suggest that ccdware post a note on that page letting PEMProAP
users that the upgrade does not apply to them? I almost clicked on it
and bought it a few days ago (before I asked here).
