Wayne, how are you attaching your pole master to the Mach2 TJF 📱

Ray, do you suggest I try re-installing the 5.30.8 driver and give it another try. Should I do an uninstall first, or just install over the top? best, Terri

Hi Ray, I did find this.. and have read some of the setup information. It wasn't a poke, it was just me articulating (maybe poorly) that I need to educate myself and figure out what I can make use of

Hi Terri, I'm absolutely sure whatever issue you saw with had nothing to do with the 5.30.08 driver. The only change was to add the missing custom slew rate option. -Ray Gralak Author of APCC

Good morning Terri! Good idea on sharing. My email is wayneh9026@.... I did refresh to the new ASCOM version but didn’t run into that issue. I’m not familiar with CDC. With respect to

Hi everyone, There have been a few issues reported within the last couple days in APCC having to do with the encoder status and the missing option for setting a custom slew rate. All of the reported

Hi Yves, There was a problem but it should be fixed in the latest builds, 1.8.0.4 Standard and 1.8.0.5 Pro. -Ray Gralak Author of APCC (Astro-Physics Command Center):

Hi Terri, APCC provides numerous features. Here is a link to a list of some of them: https://www.siriusimaging.com/Help/APCC/features.htm -Ray Gralak Author of APCC (Astro-Physics Command Center):

Those are the default uninitialized values which just weren't getting updated. The new builds, 1.8.0.4 and .5, fix this. -Ray Gralak Author of APCC (Astro-Physics Command Center):

Hi Stacey, Alt/Az is being calculated from site latitude, RA, Dec and local sidereal time. When the mount is stopped RA is changing so depending on exactly when RA and sidereal time is polled there

Hi Yves, This should be fixed in 1.8.0.4/5, which is available now. -Ray Gralak Author of APCC (Astro-Physics Command Center):

Hi Michael, We are discussing this option. Thanks for the suggestion! -Ray Gralak Author of APCC (Astro-Physics Command Center):

Hi Cytan, The encoders were never disabled. The tab controls just weren't being updated. I made a fix available yesterday, v1.8.0.4 Standard and v1.8.0.5 Pro. You can get the update via check for

Hi Wayne, you are free to e-mail me directly as well, I'm theresamarie11@.... Might be good to compare notes. I haven't figured out how to do a polar alignment during the day yet. Is that a

Thanks Terri, mine is #0015. Got through the Daytime polar alignment. A little simpler with the Mach2, just go to Park 4 and level the scope with the Altitude adjuster. I did a goto the Moon and

Ray, I really don't know what happened but now the custom field appears as it should in the Rate Settings tab section on my home computer (the same computer model as observatory ; same HD backup

HI Wayne, there is a white sticker on the back, above the azimuth knobs. The last digits on mine are the same as the controller.. which might imply I have mount #14. Terri

I already live that feature in the Mach2 even though I’ll I’ve done is set it up a couple times. Now I won’t hesitate to fine-tune my balance or manually move the scope to find something

The encoders are basically the same, but they are not attached in the same place on the 1100 vs the Mach2. On the 1100 the encoders are part of the worm wheel, and since that wheel never moves

The RA and Dec don't separate but you can remove the RA axis from the bottom end by removing the 6 screws that hold them together. The RA + Dec axes by themselves weigh 29 lb. The bottom end is
