Hi Richard, Hi all, thank you for your message. I am still trying to solve a specific problem in imaging DSO with my dobson but apparently there was no way to manage it. My system is SC with Nexus

After my 2 star alignment last night I set the Argo Navis to 'From Planetaruim" and retired to my recliner. My UC18 dob "system" then sat out on my deck in range of my wifi and performed flawlessly.

There is a happy ending to this story.? Several people suggested to me that I try the Argo Navis instead of the Nexus DSC and I did. That solved my problem.? I am now able to connect my scope to

Mike, with the changes in place I do see that you are now properly working. Good to know. Have fun! Gary Myers StellarCAT

the cable, in the form of 2 wraps (3 turns) by design will "screw" itself along the surface as you go up and then the opposite direction when you go down. The dams at the end of the flat surface are

Gary, I attached a picture after making the adjustments. ?To shift the mirror box i adjusted both the teflon pads on the lateral surface of rocker arms and the pads on the inside of the rocker box

The drive cable is wound the wrong way! The end going up should be closest to the mirror box. Must be a real pain trying to 'thread' that up in there as is. Also - indeed the drive roller is over

Gary, Thanks for the quick response. ?I attached two pictures. ?The cable stop hardware has minimized the problem but not stopped it. ?The one question i have is the spool is not located directly

Mike, The cable stop - has it eliminated the issue? If not please send a picture of the cable wrapped around the drive roller when disengaged and a 2nd picture when engaged. Also a picture of the

Occasionally the declination cable comes loose and unwinds from the spool drive. ?I have installed the cable stop made by Markless Astronomics and piece a piece of Gorilla tape that has minimized the

WOW! I don't think I remember ever having had someone break a UC AZ motor shaft! It is pretty hearty material - stainless steel shaft material. So you'll need to contact me direct,

I have a 18 in UC, it has a broken drive shaft on AZ servo. Anyone know where I can find a replacement shaft? ?I work on RC helicopters servos and looks like I could install a new one made to specs.

There is a delay on power up - whichever 'unit', the ServoCAT or the Argo Navis, comes up last, from that point it takes about 12 seconds before you'd hear the beep. More than likely you heard,

Looking for a troubleshooting procedure for the following: 15" classic Obsession with Argo-Navis & Gen 2 ServoCat and powered ground board. When I used it last month everything worked fine but I did

Here is the latest update on my issue. I sent the unit back to Gary, who tested the unit while we were on the phone together.? My unit worked as designed, i.e.. 1.? My unit connected fine to

Bentley, Please re-read what I just sent - the DSC connection, which is the means by which the ServoCAT knows how fast to run (for tracking) and how far it is to an object (for GOTO) is only through

Hello Gary, Thanks for the reply. I currently have both the RS232 and the USB ports connected on the Nexus DSC and the ServoCat.? I have a friend who is using Nexus DSC with ServoCat, he has only the

Bentley, The only way for the ServoCAT to "talk" to the digital setting circle is through the RS232 serial port. This is required no matter what else you're doing. IF you want to also have a

I've been working with Keith Venables (co-creator of the ScopeDog alt-az drive for dobs) in order to make his eFinder (plate-solving alignment system: http://astrokeith.com/equipment/efinder/ ) work
