What? Guiding filter wheel? Where did you get that from? This entire thread is about what was thought to be a defective STX Guider. I have...
Yes I do, as Doug as already wasted time pointing that out to me. You know exactly what I mean. But I see you guys have nothing to say about...
I can now confirm that the STX Guider works when connected to a different camera.
"You seem to have the worst luck." ...and yet here I am looking at a $430 shipping charge, to include insurance, on a camera still under...
Yes, I suppose I mean RGH.....Its the HDMI version of the STi. I have since tested that RGH on a STXL11002 and it works fine. I am now going to...
Yes, been liasing with Bill behind the scenes. Looks like the 16803 has to come in. I tested the STi on a STXL 11002 and it works fine, so...
Colin...I think this is bad news. I attached the aforementioned STi, I held the camera in my hand and took an image. Watched the shutter...
I am going to plug in an STi with a HDMI connector into the 16803. If the STi works its the guider, if not its the camera electronics.

Guys - any advice please? STX guider still under warranty.
Took a dark and a light frame of 1 sec duration - adu the same and image the same. so this must be a clue - I disconnected the HDMI cable...
I cannot interrogate the guider in ccdops either. I can switch to it, and I can take images and hear the shutter actuate, but the readout is the...
Yes, operating correctly. I visually watched it open and close. I took some images while shining a light down the baffle and you would expect it...
Camera now reassembled. I am getting around 800 ADU whether I bin the guider 2x2 or not. After dark subtraction, around 100 ADU. Also, suddenly...
FIT image attached. The HDMI sockets seem very firm and I can hear the shutter operating correctly. As you can see there is 'data' there i.e it...
I removed the shutter assembly and found where the motor is supposed to attach to the shutter chassis. Two screws, one was very loose, the other...
Will do. Can you confirm that the STX 16803 is to be configured as ‘dual,chip’ for the STX Guider to be recognised - and we are talking about the...
Its more like a dark frame with speckles. I have changed the HDMI cable, and unplugged/replugged. As I said, working fine for weeks. I will...
Yes this is all very familiar to me Colin. As I said, it has been working for weeks, just failed tonight. It is not seen in CCDOPS.
I did not realise it was dual chip. I have been using it in TSX for several weeks (rather my customer has), but tonight no stars, just a blank...
