Hi Luca, I'm sorry that I missed this thread. Give me a call at AP. I can remote into your system with Teamviewer and have a look. HKH

Hi Gents, I talked with Dan Bisque yesterday. They have a bug in their mount control that will be fixed in the next daily build release. Keep you TSX current!

The GTOCP3 will work, but the personality will need to be changed. I can send you a script to do this.

HOLD ON, PLEASE!! A GTOAE box can NOT be used with a 3600! The 3600 requires a GTOELS box. They are quite different. Please call me at AP if you want to discuss.

George hangs out here, but I may be able to help as well. The DOVELM162 16" Easy Balance Saddle is probably overkill for you unless you also have a big scope that you will be using. The DOVEDV10 saddl

Hello Arun, Are you using the AP V2 ASCOM driver, or APCC or something else? Do you know what firmware version is in your GTOCP3? Both APCC and the driver will tell you the version.

The latest release of Sky Safari adds some great new features, and it fixes a couple problems for AP GTO mount users For the Mach2GTO: Sky Safari now recognizes the Mach2 and accommodates its true enc

We have had pretty good results with the DeoxIT line of products for contact cleaning and moisture protection. I first saw DeoxIT D5 many years ago when we had live bands at my bar. The band roadies s

The GTOCP3 can be used with APCC as long as it has the latest V2 ROM chip. Of course, the GTOCP4 has all the latest bells and whistles, and will take advantage of all the features that APCC can offer.

We have anecdotal reports of similar issues with virtual Windows machines running on Macs. I have not yet had the chance to really pursue this, but my understanding is that it is really more of a hard

Hi Joel, Please send me your ASCOM log file from last night. I'm going to make an educated guess here: Do you use Park 2 as your park position?

Hi John, If you don't find the solution from Ray's suggestion, please give me a call to discuss. My AP Tech Support cell # is 815-315-seven zero one five.

Hi Konstantin! $SLD0# won't do anything since it is not a valid command in the command set. :LR0# is the proper command, beginning with a colon : not a $ sign. By the way, that is a zero, not a capita

Setting an appropriate meridian delay BEFORE the counterweight shaft goes up will also avoid the problem. This is easily set in APCC.

If you are using APCC, you can do this easily from the Terminal window accessed from the Setup tab. You can also do this from the CP4/5's web page. Just click on the Terminal button to open a page for

Correction: Sending $LR0# and $LR2# is for the ENCODER limits, not the internal limits. Turn the internal limits off by sending :LR0#. :LR2# turns them back on.

There is probably no one who is happier to have Mike on board full-time than ME! WELCOME MY FRIEND!! HH
