Hi Colin Sorry for the confusion on the filter wheel. TSX connects to the FW but no filters present and one can not edit a list of filter names....
Disregard the above - the STC is working properly. The Fix: I turned on the cooler and that was the only change that allowed 1x1 bin to work....
Hi Colin, That idea almost worked. The camera is controllable from TSX and the filter wheel is detected but no filters. From Maxim one can set...
Q1: Please don't go any extra effort on my part. I'll switch to Maxim for camera control and use TSX for the scope. Q2; I have some darks at 20c...
Thanks for the quick responses. TSX is 10.5.0 Daily Build 12868 IF under "camera choose" this is selected: Diffraction Limited...
The STC-7 works 100% correctly with Maxim DL (congrats on a complex device working so well). In using it via TS-X I selected camera - DL via...
Does the STC-7 show up in the device manager? You can unplug the ZWO from USB and it should not be a factor. In Maxim, under setup menu, select...
Here is an image taken with a Smartphone Pixel 3 held to an eyepiece (6mm EP - TMB 152 /1200). To bad the conjunction was not high altitude to...
The Horse Head and Flame taken with AP Riccardi-Honders 305mm @ f/3.8 and STL-11000 at -25c. Three exposures of 15 minutes in h-alpha during the...
A stack of three 5 minute + three 2 minute h-alpha images using STL-11000. Scope is an AP Riccardi-Honders 305mm and f/3.8. This was mainly a...
Hi Doug, That's an amazing image... At 7.5 seconds a lot of detail in the darker area AND the Trapezium stars were preserved. Any comment on...
Odd post.... It seems when running the CCD below -10C the luminance image shows a light haze in the center FoV covering about 50%. Warming the CCD...
Thanks Doug... The chip is very sensitive and low noise.
Thanks for the kind words! The scope for both images is the AP 305mm F/3.8 Riccardi-Honders Astrograph Captured more images in LRGB + Ha and...
Attached is a, perhaps over processed, M42 taken with the STC-7. Not a lot of data collected due to figuring out how to work the separate guider...
An RGB image set taken over the past two nights of the Rosette with STL 11000. This is a stack of ten 4 minute images for each RGB channel for a...
I'll run some 4/0 in 3" rigid conduit. :-) The wiring is #12 landscape low voltage (LV) wire, two pairs with one them dedicated to the camera. I...
Hi Colin, I tend to run things a bit 'hot' and was looking at 14.5 but will reduce it to 14.0. 14.0 what do you think? Tim [IMG]
The manual and the forums but can't see a spec for the maximum input DC voltage. The manual states 12V-DC but no spec on max or min for that...
Long ago I used USB over UTP wire (35') with an STL11000, mount and focuser. It worked fine but this was very slow USB 1.0 ? You can try...
