ahhh...that fixed it- thanks, Don. Now, as to why it mysterious changed is beyond me as I only use it these days to slew to polar align. Thanks again.

For the past 5 years, my Mac has connected to the CP4 via a USB 2 cable from the Mac to a RS232 cable connected to the CP4. All of a sudden, I am getting an error of scope not recognized. As far as I

What guide scope did you use?

Then that argues going back to me using the OAG on the C11, which always worked well, even better than the guide scope on the Stellarvue. Actually, the guide scope on the Tak is a backup in case the O

No- it is being used as an imaging scope. I can guide using the guide scope attached to it or the OAG on the C11. It is no heavier than the Stellarvue. It could be some new flexure introduced by the T

I would not have thought to check the CAA. Thank you

I recently replaced my Stellarvue with a Takahashi FSQ-85 EDX on top of my C11" EdgeHD. The mount is an AP1100. I've have used this setup the past 2 years with NINA with issues until I replaced the St

Thanks for the excellent info and diagram, Mike!

I think I am going to try and mount my Sky-Watcher Esprit 120mm with my C11” where I am currently using a piggyback design with an 80 mm. My set up requires it to be in park 4 in my ROR observatory fo

Thanks, Bryan. This is good to know as I also image with both of my scopes but usually one at a time. Your combined weight on the mount sounds about 70 lbs vs. the 50 lbs mine (minus accessories) woul

Thanks, Dean. However, the C11 is the mainstay as my main imaging scope and I have not had issues with error/flexure, especially after refitting the standard secondary mirror with the Optec secondary

I have been imaging with a Stellarvue 80mm APO triplet piggybacked on a C11" EdgeHD on my AP1100 for the past 4 years in my observatory with no issues. Both scopes produce nice long exposure images wi

I just found out that InnovationsForesight is working with NINA on a native integration

Thanks, Wade. I understand perfectly how the so-called "locks" (not really locking) work and have been using the Celestron OAG for several years. It works well and I get excellent star shapes. That is

AP1100 I saw the ONAG by InnovationsForesight - not sure if there are others. While they seem helpful in explaining what I need, it seems to use a particular focusing software that may not work well w

I am guiding with an OAG on a C11" EdgeHD @ f/10 with a ZWO ASI6200mm Pro but finding guide stars all night long can sometimes be a challenge. My primary mirror is locked down and focus is performed w

Thanks much, Ray. Greatly appreciate the info.

I've been using NINA to image with my AP1100 (no encoders) in my observatory. I connect NINA to the AP driver and everything is working fine. The only thing I have not done is to set up safety limits

I can't stop laughing along with having MORON written on my forehead. I just responded to you in Discord- that fixed the problem. Nepal did look interesting in Raiders of the Lost Ark :-).
