Colin/Doug, "Reverse" is the cable on the left side, so cable is correct. No software means no guiding software open? or open PHD2 but no...
I am having some weird guiding issues with my setup: STXL16803+STX guider+MyT, guiding with PHD2. Auto guiding works fine when guiding using SkyX...
Colin, I think it says that if you use through the mount cable method (which run the cable completely in the mount), it is 5A. If you use Kycon...
Thanks Doug, Colin. I need to confirm with SB. On the other hand, suppose current limit is fine, does it really matter if metal shield is tied...
Maybe I used the wrong term. This is what Paramount manual says: The “stock” through the mount cabling for this connector uses 18-gauge AWG...
SB manual says it can carry about 7.5A (or 8A since they have an adapter to 5A+3A DC plugs). It does not support full 10-A but 8-A is still good...
The reason is that I want to check whether I can plug in STX power adapter to Paramount MyT aux power in. And I am going to build/buy another...
Related question. I measure STX power adapter. 4-pin DIN shield is tied to ground, however 6-pin DIN shield is not. Does it really make any...
Thanks! That explains what I saw in another 16803. What should be the light frame exposure time I should use to check for this affect? And which...
The camera was purchased new about 2 years ago. I used another 16803 and it did not look this, I could hardly see any trailing. So is 1.2% typical...
And do you have measured value when it was manufactured? Did it degrade over time? I am asking because if it falls out spec later and I send CCD...
Doug, Thanks! What is the spec value? Is 1.2% more typical? Does it help if I send the CCD to Bill to improve it? I have not done long exposure...
And will it be degraded over time so I will have to fix it sooner or later?
I uploaded master dark, master bias and a dark sub (-20C, 600s) in the following directory....
So it is more like blooming that only show up in certain condition, not for every star.
And is it easy to be seen in light frame?
Does it mean the same artifact will be seen in light frame for brighter stars? I have not done long exposure so I have not seen it. Is it a...
What is trailing charge? Does it require hardware fix, firmware update or can be calibrated out? Serial number is STX16803 16060001.
Just looked at my 16803 master dark frame and noticed some thing weird. Does it looks like blooming in dark? The hot pixels are far from...
Got it. But I still dont understand why connecting only 2 ground pins would blow the fuse, while connecting all 3 works fine. The AC adapter has...
