Really beautiful on my retina macbook :) Brian

pretty amazing is this with your 5nm Ha filter? maybe go for broke and do 2 hr exposures on the 3nm ;)

interesting that just 10mm would do that

Dean I wouldn't get too caught up about pressure, it doesn't seem to impact the model that much and it doesn't really change that much either this is a 2+ year graph of pressure at Obstech which essen

Dean i realize we may have talked about this a few posts ago :) I do think your skybox can generate a boltwood file, you just need to figure out how to store that to an accessible folder for your comp

#APCC #Mach2GTO

FYI if you are at a shared remote obs they often have a boltwood file available from their environmental sensors that is available for use, and that also work for APPM this is what we use at Obstech (

Dean Ray is probably best to answer, but i've had long talks with him on this and yes, MGBox (or something similar) provides updated temperatures, and the APPM modeling takes the temperature into acco

#APCC #Mach2GTO

That will work for model building, but you need the current temperature as you are imaging, so you really need a way where the temperature is updated on a consistent basis. the modeling adjusts based

#APCC #Mach2GTO

HI Marcelo Temperature does have some impact on the modeling (talking with Ray on this) so you might consider having an environmental sensor in there like an MGBox V2

Bill remind me what is that OTA of yours?

Thanks roland, yes I picked that up from your previous post :)

Thanks Konstantin I have not used Home position, but i have defined it, so maybe i'll turn that off and see if that makes a difference Brian

Thanks Bryan yeah that's what i thought - i definitely have those disabled and yet it is still hitting limits Sounds like AP is already aware of this

Just a quick follow up: i have no meridian limits set in APCC either. I could not find any limits to set in the ASCOM driver

Hi folks Where are all the places you can set limits? We have AP1600 with encoders we turned off AE limits in APCC as a test, and we're still getting errors that we've hit the RA limit and it's bounci

I think the false positive on CCDWare's downloads caused Malwarebytes to flag the whole site afaik Malwarebytes is its own thing, keeping its own database of sites it considers safe or 'infected' base

Hi Mike I think you may be thinking of star flatness? i snagged this description out of PI's subframe selector - btw in this doc they spec 0.42 as being perfectly round Eccentricity is a measure of st

>>> Is the solution a Planewave?? J either that, or I hear AP has a 17" reflector they are working on :) >>What should I expect for good eccentricity - .35ish?? generally eccentricity of 0.5 or lower

Okay thanks I'm poking around in your logs some, and I'm waiting to hear back from someone else I asked a Q about, but I can see your RA corrections are primarily one-sided at higher altitudes (and a

Hi George I think that's a false positive. Also I believe that happens only when downloading the first link, which is not PEMPro. Make sure you scroll down a bit and download PEMPro and not the first
