Thanks again, Colin, for your great support! Initially I did not put the IP address in before clicking on "Advanced" because the camera did not...
After installing a wireless access point in my observatory, I was able to detect the Aluma 8300 wireless connection as a client of my home LAN...
Yes, although I don't think the mini DIN plug is very secure. A feather touch can result in it losing power. However, I can usually hear the fan...
Ah, sorry! I resumed testing without changing that back. I'm afraid the bias frame looks no different. See attached.
OK, here it is. I could probably go to greater lengths to put the camera in complete darkness, but I'll be guided by you. This image was taken by...
OK, I'll do that as soon as I get time (probably later today). One thought I had was to check the position of the guide chip in the filter wheel....
Mo OK. Here are two images taken with the guider after making the changes you suggested. I'm about to turn in for the night (3:42 am), business...

Hi Colin and Kris W, Tonight I tested this out and found that the problem remained when binning was set to 1 x 1. To search for the problem...
OK, here are the details: 1) Camera firmware is 16. 2) Cooler was set for -25C and was around 61% power. 3) I was taking light frames. 4) See...
Will do!
I've recently put a new Aluma 8300 into service. Several times throughout the night the Aluma delivers a blank image, by which I mean that all...
Is there any update on this situation from 2 months ago? I've just updated my sub to MaxIm DL Pro and I think I have the AO plugged in correctly....
I have wondered about leaving the camera on all the time. It is what I do with my observatory computer and my telescope mount, and they have both...
I have a STT8300M which has now been in for repair three times. I have been using it with a self-guiding 8 filter, filter wheel and an AO-8T , so...
Thanks for your suggestions. After persisting for some days, the problem seems to have resolved itself. However, I am none the wiser for its...
