Thanks, Brian and Luca; I actually bin 2x2 for platesolving, but recognize they are still big files. I haven't had any issue with the QHY 600, but the ZWO 6200 MM seems a little more temperamental. I

What Brian said. If you want to use SGP with the ASI6200, it will be much more reliable if you use SGP v4.657 beta 64bit. Luca

Hi Greg just inserting a couple things i"ve learned from using APPM the model is all-or-nothing, you can add on to an existing APPM model. Also your hanging may be due to the huge file sizes of the 62

I think this question is for Ray Gralak; I've gotten very comfortable with APPM and use it every time I set up for imaging. I only have a partial view of the sky and I set up runs of between 49 and 87

Hi again, OK, solved it! Your hint about ASCOM triggered some thoughts. Uninstalled V2 driver and APCC. I reinstalled ASCOM which fired up a warning about Ransomware protection which is not compatible

Rodolphe, The ASCOM COM port is set to -1 according to the logs, which, of course, does not exist! The problem is that your ap.ini file is blank. Any idea how that might have happened? Uninstalling th

Update: I went ahead and uninstalled APCC, the V2 driver. I "repaired" ASCOM. Reinstalled the driver then APCC. The unininstall does not seem to remove everything though: all my previous parameters we

Hi Ray Confirmed. This is my standard setting in APCC, which has not changed for months: Additionally, the virtual ports seem created and ready, from the APCC status bar. However, the ASCOM driver fai

Hi Frédéric, Yes, APCC can force the mount to stay on one pier-side. The way to do this is to set up the East/West limits in the meridian limits editor. Here’s a short video where I show how to do thi
