Nice work, Brian! I think you really hit this one out of the park!
Glad I could help - - and thanks again to you and your team for really going the extra mile - - in every sense!
SUCCESS!!!! Per Colin's suggestion, I upped the SNR to 100, and extended the calibration time for the AO-8A (looks like I had previously...
Thanks Colin - - the link worked, and I'll try everything out tonight!
Sorry Colin - - I get an error message when I click this link: "You do not have permission to view this page or perform this action." Even...
Thanks Colin - - will do. If the weather co-operates tomorrow night, I'll try it out.
So I finally got my mount back and those issues sorted out (more or less), I finally had enough clear sky to do some testing using the ASCOM...
I get it - - sounds promising; this method plus the other suggestions from Colin (straight-through cable and flipping the X axis) should work....
So if I understand you correctly, when I connected through ASCOM before, it was the AO unit issuing commands to the mount via that connection?...
Hi Adam: Welcome to the party. I will do that when I set up this evening - - but I should tell you I've already connected through ASCOM once...
Sorry - - I should clarify: last night I only had the SC 2 connected - - I had physically removed the AO. All other sessions detailed here...
I believe I tried both ways. In the past, I've just bypassed the AO by using the guide tab of the camera connect dialog box, other times, I...
Last log attached. I'll open up the calibration time to 60 seconds next time, but I'm pretty sure that won't help. The unit seemed to lose the...
So, some new developments - - and thanks again Colin for the site visit - - that's really going the extra mile (or 50-ish): The guiding speed...
FYI for anyone else following this thread (I DM'd Brian already): Confirmed - - I used GPUSB with the SC-2 and it worked fine. Tracked really...
Looks like the weather will co-operate tonight, at least until 11:00 or so, which should give us enough time. I will try to set up for 8:00,...
Tuesday should work. I can do anytime after 5 pm, or I might be able to do something between 2 and 5. And it looks like we're in the same time...
And yes, let's schedule something - - tomorrow and Monday don't really work for me, but I'll try to accommodate anything on any other day - -...
And attaching the log in case it's of use. So Sorry Brian - - I should have explained that image: Test 2-0773L.fit is a single unguided 50...
We need to do a remote session. What's alarming is that the behaviour of this thing does not seem to be repeatable. Attached is an image from my...
