helloo Astronuts, Well, you have by now seen the 110 product page, and I have a few thoughts I want to pass along. For the past 2 years I have been keenly aware of trends in this hobby, and have been

Hello fellow astronuts, I could not get deep sky images to come out right with this color camera. So I went back to basics and imaged a known daytime object with known colors. Ross was right, the key

At last, our exciting news: The Quest: Design the largest, fast, highly-corrected, airline transportable refractor that can cover a full-format CMOS chip with pinpoint stars to the corners when couple

Have you considered 3D-printing a tapered washer to fit between your camera and ocuser? The attached photo shows one I drew in 15 minutes of fiddling around, so it's easy to create. This one is greatl

This is exactly what I’m looking for as I image with the ASI6200MM full frame sensor. My only wish is some built in way to adjust tilt on the scope, either at the lens cell or focuser to allow us to d

Dear all, My name is Christophe, from France. This is my first message here. My english is not very good, as youwill see ; I hope you will understand what I mean. This forum is a great idea. ** I boug

Hello Astro-Nuts, After much deliberation and assessment and with great regret, we are compelled to cancel our attendance at the Advanced Imaging Conference (AIC) in San Jose this month. This was a di

I tied for the first time to launch JPL Horizon program thru APCC menus and also alone as program. I have a working internet connection. When I logon to JPL Horizon they my google chrome web browser I

Hi astro-imagers, I have been using a ZWO 6200C color camera here at our factory observatory to test scopes, flatteners etc. I recently aimed it at a nearby blue water tower and was shocked to find th

Everything is working very well with my new Mach2GTO and APCC Pro except for the 3D View feature. When I click on the 3D View button I get a pop-up that states, "Load Library failed with error 1114. A

1100GTO will not power on. Main battery shows 12.76V and backup battery shows 12.5V. Keypad simply says "Astro-Physics Ver: 4.19.3" and will not proceed beyond that point. Reads drawing 0 amps and LED

Tonight, I was using a 16" RC at f/6.4 with a full frame sensor to watch the eclipse. I also had a 91mm scope riding parallel to provide a wider FOV. In the 16", I could see about 95% of the lunar dis

The weather has been appalling since I received my new AP1600. Wanted to at least make some progress and establish PC connection. Not wanting to setup mount in poor weather, can I power up the CTP4 co

Mr. Gralak, Some time ago I had changed the camera selection in Pempro (build 4732) from ASI1 to ASI2 for another issue, but afterwards neglected to change it back. Normally, ASI1 is a 6200mm (main) a

I have a TEC 140 refractor on a 1100GTO with encoders on a permanent pier. I ran a 378 point model, and am getting excellent guiding with SGP and PHD2; mostly +/- 0.25 pixels, but getting *very* oval

SGPro has the ability to set a park position based on the current position of the mount, then at the end of a sequence it tells the mount to park. I believe the way it sets the park position is to sen

I have been re-reading the APCC manual and came across a statement that has me wondering if I am doing ReCals correctly. I have a portable setup, and although I usually get pretty well aligned, it is

My AP1600 worked flawlessly the night before but next day it got stuck on thinking its in the northern hemisphere so slews were going towards the ground! I am using Sky X and Ascom driver for AP. It u

I have been trying to troubleshoot excessive slew warnings (over 50%) when building models in APPM. From observing the Dec coordinate values in APPC I believe it is the Dec axis. Here is what I have d
