Hi Colin As near as I can figure things seem to be back to normal. Because of the shocking weather I haven't been able to take any images but I...
The observatory computer version appears correct and it brings up the correct filters. The version which I installed on the main computer the...
Well I seem to have had a breakthrough. I replaced the current fw with the original one which I thought I had proved to be defective. Now...
Well I'm getting pretty close to giving up. So far this morning I've detached the AO and FW leaving just the basic camera - everything works fine...
Can't see how I could have mixed up the screws but nothing is impossible in this situation. You also have to remember that all this happened...
Okay - as of now I'm giving up for the day. To summarize: Yesterday the FW8 was working fine but I was getting shutter errors (never seen before...
Forgot to add. Connected up the STXL16200. No clattering but no filter movement and the dreaded shutter error.
Hi Colin; I removed everything except the camera head and then tried to take an image with CCDOPS - worked fine. I then re-attached the filter...
Just happened to wake up (haven't been sleeping well). I would prefer about 0900 my time but I can adapt to any time you want.
That sounds good Colin. I'm on UTC + 10 (Sydney time). This probably will have little to do with the problem but I finally got a W10 update...
Well I don't know what's going on. Yesterday the filter wheel seemed fine but I was getting shutter errors. Today I opened up the camera and...
Well things have got worse and I really don't know what's going on. Yesterday the CFW exerciser was working fine but I was getting shutter errors...
Just thought I would try one more time before going to bed. CFW exerciser works fine with both sequential and random moves. Now I'm getting...
Nope - a whole lot of new errors. 30017 (shutter error) coming up repeatedly. Also operating system error (30032) which I believe has something to...
Hi Colin Tentatively I think I can say it's fixed. I installed the spare filter wheel this time using all of it rather than just the carousel and...
Hi Colin Well if I wasn't puzzled before I am now. I've just replaced the FW8 carousel with the equivalent carousel from the spare FW8 I had....
Hi Colin Serial number for FW is XS14030048 The answer to the power supply question is "probably". I have 2 STXL cameras: 6303 and 16200. When I...
Forgot to mention. I use the Sky X for imaging Version 10.5.0 (Build 10305)
Hi Colin and Doug I just updated the software and firmware before I saw Colin's reply so whatever is in there at the moment is presumably the...
Hi Recently I changed back to using my STXL6303 camera. Things were going great for a while and then the filter wheel stopped working properly....
