[ap-ug] Mach2 vibration & noise issue from the RA axis

Roland Christen
The stepper motors will hit resonant points if the belt tension is set too high. If you send me an e-mail I will walk you thru setting the belt tension so it doesn't do that.

issue from the RA axis. It only does it when going from the west side to
the east side of the mount. Also, the Go-To speed must be at 1000 or
1800. Whats up???
thanks tony
BTW - here is the description on my YouTube page for this video:
Tonight, May 22 - 2021 I noticed a vibration from my Astro-Physics Mach2
mount at the 1000 and 1800 Go-To rates coming from the RA axis. It only
occurs when going from the west side of the mount to the east side.
Clip 2 is @ 1800 WEST SIDE to park 3
Clip 3 is @ 1800 EAST SIDE to park 3
Clip 4 is @ 600 WEST SIDE to park 3
Clip 5 is @ 1000 WEST SIDE to park 3
Clip 6 is @ 1800 WEST SIDE to park 3
Clip 7 is @ 600 WEST SIDE to park 3
Clip 8 is @ 1000 WEST SIDE to park 3
The rest of the video is documented verbally by me.

Roland, Can you also send me that email. My Mach 2 also has that resonance vibration. Regards, David C. Finch df121819@...
