I don't know how, or even if I can, label this thread as "resolved". But thanks to all who have commented and helped us with this issue.
Doug, Bill. Colin. Thank you very much.
Thanks Doug. Serial # is T14030641. When I send it in, should I remove the self-guiding filter wheel and just send the camera?
Thanks Colin. No reflection on you, but I will wait for Doug to confirm it. I'm also gonna wait a couple of months until the weather turns against...
Doug, here are the results of my testing. I found enough resistors to series together to give me 3120 ohms. I used one & two 6V batteries to give...
Thanks Doug. And you said earlier I could use +5V or +12V. 12V would be easier to get. We might have resistors at our shop. We're an electrical...
Ok Doug, I just want to be sure I'm following your instructions. I've attached a diagram of what I think you want. As soon as I can find a local...
Ok, we'll try that. I agree that the multimeter readings may not be accurate. But I would think we would get a consistent result since we're...

We've been using our STT-8300M camera & CCDOPS for the last 2-3 years with the Y- relay turned off with no problem. Polar alignment with our pier...
Thanks Tim, we'll check that.

Rolf, this one worked for me: http://diffractionlimited.com/product/stt-8300/#shop-accessories Scroll down to SOFTWARE. Click on the one you...
I may not be much more help. That one setting in CCDOPS is all I've ever had to deal with when using USB. It may be a Windows 10 issue, and I have...
In CCDOPS, check in Misc > Graphics/Comm Setup and check Interface. Make sure it's set for your connection.
We upgraded the drivers & firmware on our STT-8300M / FW8GSTT a couple of weeks ago. We updated CCDOPS this past weekend to the latest version....
We partially resolved some other issues with the Guide Chip, posted in another thread. STT-8300M & FW8GSTT But another problem showed up...
We got the camera guiding again. The guide chip is seeing stars. We focused the main chip, then focused the guide chip. But when I locked down...
I don't know if anyone will want to take the time to download these videos. Video 1 was taken with ACTIVE TRACKING CCD set at Internal. Video 2...
Haven't done that yet. But just looking in the "nosepiece" side, I'm not sure If I can see anything of the pick-off mirror/guide chip sections....
