Mach2 lost?

Shailesh Trivedi
I believe my Mach2 is "lost", the RA & DEC values in the FIT header is wrong. How do I get the Mach2 to a known position?

I’m APCC go to the AE tab, under AE actions click the big find home button that should get it straightened out.

Tim, as an interested viewer of this thread, I know how to go to the Park tab and then the Park dialog box at the top center, then to the "Park to this Position" drop down box and select Home. But I do not see an AE tab. Is this something that only appears when connected to the mount?

What do you mean by a Fit header?
Check to make sure that your time and daylight savings is set correctly. Daylight savings is now Winter.

Roland,
One can read the FITs header using a program like Pixinsighg. The header shows X/Y binning, sensor temperature, RA & DEC and a few other parameters in plain text. The rest is binary. Shailesh
