The mount will always park according to the LST that the ASCOM driver calculates based on your time, date, location data. If it parks wrong, look at your LST number. Park2 and 3 are always 6 hours

Yes the neat thing is you connect the mount and it physically moves the mount to each point.

Thanks Rolando, I have checked those a few times now. And if one of them would be incorrect, wouldn't the Mount always miss the position by the same 15 degrees or what not. Now the mount occasionally

Hey Wayne, I want to try a model creation myself. I was going to try on the 15th, but after pressing run, it went off and nothing seemed to happen, and not wanting to waste good clear sky, I

My APCC pro also did not detect new version... so I downloaded latest version manually by altering download url for 1.8.0.5 little bit ;) thanks, jinyoung

It always comes down to an improper time issue. 1) send the mount to a known star or object, center it and do a recal on it. 2) send the mount to Park3, let it go wherever it goes. 3) check your

Discovered one issue - the plotter ignores my meridian limits and insists on pointing to the zenith/meridian from the west side, which looks straight up into the eaves of my roof. In fact it appears

Wow that NASA Sky View camera works great - successfully running a model IN THE DAYTIME!! Will save me a lot of time. 😂😂😂

Ray, would the fact that I'm using a OSC camera with Bayer matrix make a difference? Wayne Hixson, Stargazer

Hello Jack Those look like Linak columns. If so, what model are they and where did you get them? Don Anderson

Mikko, One thing that Luca reminded me of is that if my go to is off a bit and I center and realign, when I go back to park the RA is always off a bit, but the Dec is still right on the money. I

Mikko, I’m not a computer expert and hate Windows, but I understand that a driver can get corrupted. Using Luminous directly would take the AP V2 driver out of the control system, wouldn’t it?

Mikko, While you get to the bottom of the issue, one thing you can try to mitigate the failed centering is to uncheck Prevent Errant RECALs in advanced settings. This will allow an initial large

Jack, The glow tape I use is made for the live theater industry. It glows in the dark so actors can find their marks during blacked out set changes – and so they don’t bang into things in the

Thanks Don. I have Luminous so I could try that. But... even if I just use the AP V2 driver, unpark the Mount and slew it to any direction and then ask it to park again, it will miss the park

Hi Mikko, Just throwing out an idea here, but do you have an ipad or iPhone? If you do, you could buy SkySafari or Luminous (they’re pretty cheap) to control the mount and take your computer and

Hi Ray, Sorry for being dumber than rocks when it comes to Windows stuff. I'm more of a dumber than rocks Mac user :) Here's the screen shot for the firewall settings on my Win 10: I don't see

Windows Defender Firewall can block applications. Without realizing the impact you might have clicked yes to a prompt that disabled APCC from being able to access the web. There is not much else that

Hey Mikki, I responded to you about this issue on your CN thread. One other potential cause besides mechanical slippage is your PC's clock drifting copiously between sessions. This is something to

Hi Ray I don't have any purchased AV on my Win10. Unless you mean whatever AV that comes standard on Win10? cytan
