Yan, I am sorry I was not clear. The only thing you might want to contact the ASCOM team for is an issue with Alpaca. They are normally useless for troubleshooting mount and/or driver issues. :-) You

Thank you, Ray! After reading your explanation that the AP V2 ASCOM driver is a hub, I realized I was using the same virtual port for both APPM and TheSkyX. Changed the virtual port for TheSkyX and se

Phil60, The SGPro coordinates in your screenshot are J2000. This is different from the mount’s coordinate system, which is local apparent, which some people call JNow. This is not a problem but if you

Hi Ray, both Curent site and Mount RA/DEC are now synchronized thank you very much Phil60

#ASCOM_V2_Driver

Hi John, I do not recommend using the ASCOM Device Hub with the AP V2 driver as the ASCOM device hub may not pass through some of the APCC-specific commands from APPM to APCC. -Ray

I have the same problem, no matter what combination of settings I use, APCC always reaches its meridian limit a couple of minutes before SGP, causing the SGP session to abort. I had a similar issue in

#APCC #ASCOM_V2_Driver

Tom, The setting you should configure is the Flip Offset, which moves the mount's flip point East of the meridian limit by the number of minutes you set. This gives the imaging application (SGPro) an

Hello, I've been trying to puzzle through setting up simple meridian flips with APCC, the ASCOM V2 driver, and Sequence Generator Pro. I know there is provision for Smart Meridian Flips by using the M

When troubleshooting USB connections... 1. Try a new, quality USB cable. 2. Try a different USB port. 3. See what Device Manager is saying. 4. This time, really do try a quality USB cable, and not jus

-- I run robotic projects on a 900 mount. Higher slew speed would increase system efficiency. Any thoughts on what the downsides might be to selecting the maximum slew speed, or contrarywise, what the

All sorted, I set the jog scope to 90deg/min and speed to 1200x and now works. Seems movement was set to slow to be noticed. Thanks

Hi John, Looks like I may have solved this. I checked Windows number format settings and for some reason the decimal separator field was blank. I changed to . (period) and the error does not seem to b

Thanks for the other suggestions. I am still at a bit of a loss. Experiments using different USB serial convertors, and different cables, have not turned up any clear cause of the odd behaviour. I am

Dear All, I talked to George from AP and the solution he suggested worked. Basically, I have to manually park the mount. Then turned the power off and used telescope setup to change the setting “unpar
