Hi Scott, I've never seen that error. Which version of PinPoint are you using? APPM sets the pinpoint property ExposureStartTime with the current date/time (as a double, not a string) when providing

Thumbs up

To be frank, I think Karen memes are funny as heck. :-D No offense taken, ever. Karen

To you and all the Karens out there, I am truly sorry this was done to you. I'm sure Kevins are next.

Hello all: I'm new to the forum and just got my Mach2 up and running and learning the ropes with APPM. I've been working on an issue where plate solving is failing. My camera set-up in APPM is:

Thanks Stuart, Greg, Rolando Correct polar alignment without more and APPM modeling 90 points, 48 West and 42 East. Dominique

APCC and the Driver show sidereal as the SELECTED tracking rate. That is the tracking rate even while slewing, and the mount must keep track of the sidereal motion of the sky during the time it takes

Looks very good for starters. Rolando

SkyX is failing to send the proper stop slew command. It's not a failing of the mount, it's an improper command in SkyX. Rolando

When I tried this yesterday although SkyX reported slewing even after button release, APCC and ASCOM driver showed tracking at sidereal rate.

We will look into this. Meanwhile can you use the jog buttons in APCC? It may be that SkyX is configured to send a "move" command but not a "quit move" command when the button is released. Therefore

Dominique, Thanks very much for sharing your results! These are very pleasing, especially the clusters with the depth and colors of the stars! Did you do a model in APCC (under APPM) or

Dominique, these are all exceptional. I could not get any of your links to work but went to Astrobin and found you and the images there. Stuart Heggie http://www.stuartheggie.com/ --

Hi, Here is a little feedback on the use of my Mach2. The modeling goes pretty well with SGP / Platesolve2. After photoshoots with the AP130GT, I switched to the C11HD with still use without

Hi Chanan, Sorry but the AP V2 ASCOM driver only supports tracking rates for GTOCP3 control boxes with Rev S or later firmware. You might try downloading my PulseGuide program from

It is an AP900 connected via the AP V2 ASCOM Driver - it is not APCC standard or pro download from the AP website

Chanan Do you have APCC Standard or Pro? If you do, the included Horizons program will extract the JPL data and set up the mount for you. Demos at
