The equipment is 800 miles away from me, and I have only seen it once (years ago); so I'm not familiar with the configuration. Yes, it's the STX...
I have asked the guys at SRO to check the cables. I do not understand the suggestion to "connect to the STX with no guider connected or...
Hi, Much frustration here. After spending a whole bunch of money, and a whole bunch of time, sending my camera (STX-16803), filter wheel and...
Update: After doing all sorts of controls, trying to isolate the issue, we have found the following: 1. When using my STX-16803, STX guider and...
Hi Colin, This has been going for a while now. You can get the previous discussion and images posted earlier in the thread. The mount has...
No change in behavior, after all that. Added to the mix is that the guiding now is choppy, with frequent errors that are well over 1 pixel, where...
Thank you so much, William; I never, ever, would have figured that out. Now I'll see if this works under dark skies; it did connect just fine, so...
I have read that instruction page more times than I can count (and I have two degrees in mathematics). There is a "setup" button to the right of...
When I choose "Control Via," then pick "ASCOM Direct," I get no further choices, such as "chooser."
There is no "Device Hub" option under "Control Via." And I don't see any place where I choose "Device Hub." I see under "Com Port" a choice for...
Thanks! But I do not know how to "put ASCOM Device Hub in the middle." I'm using ACP Expert/Scheduler. In Maxim I "control by" ASCOM Direct....
I'm sorry, but I don't know what this tells me to look for. Clearly, corrections were not being made, so there is an issue. Equally clearly,...
The squiggly satellite trail was with the AO unplugged; it wasn't causing the squiggly trail. Any luck figuring out why the guiding (regular, not...
Bump....
I have attached the log (I think). I only saw the guiding acting that strange way once (but I wasn't watching it constantly); when I checked in...
Ok, I've set it to log; assuming it works, and I can find the log, I'll post it here tomorrow.
I'm assuming that doesn't happen automatically. So I'll figure out how to do that tonight.
I have checked, rechecked, and toyed with the guider settings, which now are back to the default settings. I tried several different delay...
I imaged last night with a replacement AO-X in the imaging train, but not powered on. The problem is not at all evident now (that is, I'm not...
Thanks, William; I always appreciate your help! I did it both ways--stopped tracking, and with the power turned off to the mount. Same result,...
