Hi Roland! Do you think is a thing possible to swap slewing rate for the rates listed below? I mean possible by changing servo controller code in the EPROM. Of course, the keypad firmware must be upda

Roland, is it a new feature already implanted in the new controller or must be added depending on request? Will the new controller compatible with older motors? Thanks, Yves Laroche chris1011@...

Hi Marj.! In the SBIG list, someone told us than your new GTOCP3 for upgrade will be available in a few weeks. May I place an order now or I must wait. What will be the approx. price expected. Thank y

Sometime, I've got the same problem with and without the keypad on both axes. With TheSky, I saw this behavior several time at 1x when centering an object and I must press the opposite button (softwar

Roland, I will try my best to get some informations the next time the problem will occur. By memory, I was using my mount with TheSky and keypad attached but need to be sure about it. My serial cable

Richard, My runaway problem was there before TheSky6 so I don't think it's a problem specific with this version but maybe it's related with the speed of your computer. I mean by speed than TheSky6 is

To Roland: I've tried some experiment with my new CTOCP3 servo controller but I never succeed in using :Rc# command protocol. All my test were done with HyperTerminal and I was able to communicate wit

To Roland and Ray. Okay, I think I understand the way the keypad's firmware works about guide or centering rate but why the keypad have to send a guide (:RG#) or centering rate (:RC#) protocol command

Hi to all! 1- During the eclipse I've done some test with the arbitrary centering rate protocol command :Rcnnn# where nnn are number between 1 to 999 as written in the AP web page. However, I noticed

Dear Marj, Have you been able to reproduce the behavior concerning the :Rc# (Arbitrary centering rate) protocol command for GTOCP3? Thanks, Yves Marjorie Christen wrote:

Marj, Okay for the arbitrary centering rate. For centering, the range of 0-255x is okay. I was just checking within the range from the documentaion to feel the way the mount should works when it will

The answer is YES. Yves paul_luckas wrote:

Daniel, It was just an idea to help me focus on the problem but you're right. The mount will receive the modeled coordinates. Sorry for any confusions. However, it seems than something cause a delay a

Hi Roland! I've received this week my two new motors brakets for RA and DEC. I was surprised to found there was no spring at all with these brackets. If I understood correctly the instruction, the two

Hi to all! I've just finished to install my both motors brackets in RA and DEC. I started at -33C and finished at +10C. Fortunately, my observatory is isolated so with a big heater (4800 watts) instal

Hi Roland and all, My best wishes to all of you. Roland, I agree with you 99.9%. Last winter, I remarked and experimented all problems you listed below. At -33C,with original grease, I read a current
