I hope so, too, Doug. But I have to say that the ST-7XME camera has served me well for about 17 years, so perhaps it's time to retire that one...
Hi Colin, I bought a replacement dessicant plug in 2009 along with a huge quantity of replacement desiccant pouches sealed in foil. At the...
I thought I'd ask you about these attached images. Five recent images taken on five different night with the camera cooler temperature set to five...
Colin, https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08CZ925XB/
I just wanted to chime in to report that in the month or so that I've been operating with the new powered USB-to-Ethernet adapters I haven't had a...
Hi Whit, I didn't read Colin's note, because I'm deeply familiar with THAT problem. Perhaps that will help you out of your pickle. Further...
Don't worry about it, Colin. I know you have a big business with a relatively small staff, so every minute is precious. Thanks for your reply. I...
Hi Colin, Adam, Disappointed not to hear a peep after 30 days. I was only looking for an interpretation of the error messages and not necessarily...
Hi Colin, Here are the two files you asked for. I should note that the ACP log file (named "(Sch)--V0526 Cyg-...) simply stopped at 00:46:12...
Hi Adam, Thanks for trying to help out here. I had another, different failure last night. I was going along just fine for about 45 minutes, when...
Good old reliable ST7. Occasionally now fails to connect, or fails to take a picture, or calls out a filter wheel error. Attached is a short but...
Shortly after posting these messages, I did a lot of "testing," producing dozens of different SBIG_Driver_Log files. That became too much data and...
Hi Colin, Strangest (serendipitous) thing... I discovered on my observatory desktop a file called "SBIGDriverLog.txt." It's 88 MBytes right now,...
Colin, thanks for your reminder about my April 2019 identical issue. I found that thread and read through it again. After two years of no...
Colin, Sorry, my bad for not including that information originally. It's an SBIG ST7-XME and CFW-8A filter wheel (5-position). I have...
Hi, I need a bit of explanation here. Question: Why is there a "filter error (100)" error at the very beginning? Is there a value in MaxIm...
Bill, Doug, Having changed the COM port on the Filter Wheel setup to something else besides COM1, I find that I'm not having any trouble with...
Bill, Doug, Colin, I reported under another thread on the forum in "MaxIm DL" that I think I have solved this problem. Not hardware, not really...
Bill, (Doug, Colin), I'm still thinking about this, and it's been such icky weather I haven't had a chance to do more testing. But I did do some...
Hi Bill and Doug, I just discovered (attached image) that the Filter Model in the "Setup Filter" panel is set for "standard." It should be...
Separate names with a comma.
