Hi Ray, I have not actually tried this. I'm just trying to understand what is going on. In the files section here is a post from Roland, where he does this for the 1100. It's the first folder in the l

Hi BTW, if you are using an Intel NUC, 19V is not necessary. They work just fine at 12V as per specs. My NUC is an i5 with SSD, and thurnderbird 3 to 10G Base T adapter. It works reliably with no issu

Hi I'm trying to understand how the refine process works. There are examples in the Pempro documentation, but they never show the resulting "Green curve". So the idea is to do the following. Take the

Yes, the more and more experience I get, the more I notice the effects of seeing. In fact, the drift I would see imaging east of the meridian did not show up like other days. Dec guiding was great. On

Seriously, tonight I had an amazing session with my AP600 but only later at night imaging west of the meridian ( 0.45). When on the east it was much worse. 0.8RMS tracking. The mount is balanced to be

I have this mount and use it for imaging. Balance seems to be really important but a bit difficult to do. I have backlash of 2 seconds in Dec and when I image with Voyager, it takes a couple of starts

Got my notification today! What are the weights needed for ax40 pound load on a ap1100? Thanks!

Hi It's the Intel NUC8i3BEK. The one I bought had a 240Gb SSD. Not enough for an ASI6200 so I upgraded to 1Tb. Tom

oops, the base is 3 feet in diameter. The pier is from Software Bisque and is 10" in diameter. It bolts to 4 stainless steel rods embedded in the concrete. In the summer I take the whole things down,

Hi Here you are. This routinely works no issues down to -20C. Actually the only issue is my darks are at -20 and should be set to -25 on these cold days. You can see the NUC, which is an I5, bought la

Great. One other thing about this hub is that it uses 12V just like most astro devices.

The USB hub I use is this one: https://www.ebay.com/itm/I-Tec-Metal-Active-Hub-10-Port-Usb-3-0-With-Ps-Win-Mac-Os-NEW/274542884289?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2648 I've been

Hi Donald, This is my setup. Since you have a ROR setup you have a lot more space than me. My mount is still an older AP600 but it has the latest CP4 controller. If you look at the picture of my "obse

Will we get information as to when notifications will be complete? Just in case we aren't in the running for this production? I once signed up for a 155mm scope and never received the notification. Do

I thought we were supposed to hear about it here? Well now we know. It does seem though that a 21% price increase is a bit excessive no? Yikes...

Hi Not yet. Debating about Astrobin The full image is 2.9 GBytes! But it will print nicely up to 4' x 6'. Those big mpixel cameras are quite impressive. Tom

Hi Just thought I would share my first image with an ASI6200mm camera. This camera is 62mpixel CMOS with next to no noise compared to my previous STL11000. This was guided with an ASI290 off axis with

Hi Just a follow up to this thread in case someone else runs into this. Ray logged in to my computer and immediately saw where the issue was. I was accessing the CP4 directly instead of going through

Hi I'm getting ok guiding when I start my night imaging. At this point, the scope is pointing to the east. Not fantastic but still good enough for my image scale. I do have a bit of backlash in dec an

Hi now? Sure. Send me a pm. I have TeamViewer
