Richard, I regularly utilize plate solving using ASTAP from within Sharpcap Pro with my servocat equipped 18” f/4 dob. Robin the creator of Sharpcap constantly provides amazing new features that

One of my favorite features of the ServoCAT is the spiral search.? This really helps me quickly overcome my mount errors. My mount errors don't bother me too much as I just hop from one object to

Happy to help Steve. And thanks to your friend Bill as well. From what I understand the wire gauge selected for the long cable (you had said you measured it at 26') was pretty small as well - Bill

I will, thank you Richard, I should have posted this question on the MC group site as well and will once I view this discussion. I forgot that you were or are using the Argo. Thank you Mickey Huffman

Thank you Wes, if you would like better results using your DOB for imaging, try using the Deep Sky Lucky Imaging technique. High gain very low exposure as in 1 to 3 seconds depending on the object.

We have found the issue with our scope not being able to slew with both motors at the same time. The solution was two-fold: 1. The length of cable from the power brick to the scope was too long, about

Mickey, Check out this discussion of the 2 ASCOM drivers for ServoCAT. [email protected] | Has Anyone Successfully Connected to/Used a ServoCAT ASCOM Driver? (

Following , I have the servocat Argo combo driving my SDM pimped Obsessed 20” F5 # 305. I achieve 4-5 sec subs with 50% roughly keepable subs and would like to improve on that . Using it visually it

I am new to the group. It was suggested that I ask the group this question. I have a 22" star structure Dob that is set up for imaging using the Nexus DSC system with the Servocat. It was suggested

Gary: the list you sent me to troubleshoot my issue was great. I did not have to remove the pivot plate. I lifted it up and it sprang down. Now the power does not cut out as it used to. Must have been

Fellow stargazers and ServoCAT owners... its probably fully known now that the business was sold to BRC Astro back in May. Bill is busy getting all the items on order and getting up to speed - the

Just an FYI. Steve's scope is vintage '07. I don't know if it has the redundancy spring I added to the design of the PGB system. Nor has it ever been 'cleaned' (over time it's good to take the ground

Another point. The power source may not be the issue . Voltage drop is another cause. This can happen from a high res joint or the size cable doesnt match the current that is being drawn. . Cheers

Buster, I didn’t think about the “jumper cables” route. (Maybe because I am a software guy, not hardware). I still need to make a cable with the right connector to go in to the powered ground

Too much unnecessary work removing the batt. A combination of jumper cables, gator clips, cig lighter plugs and wire will easily work to test and be a 12V backup power plan. Obsessions are made to be

Buster, I’m not sure how I can hook up the battery to the receptacle in the powered foot. I’d need to build a cable to do that. And then figure out how to get the battery out from under the

Mike, I got the power brick from a local electronics store, not the internet. Steve Sent: Monday, September 4, 2023 9:36 AM To: [email protected]; [email protected] Subject: Re: [ServoCAT] GoTo

Understand,but you don’t quite, your brick can be marked anything but it may not now be putting out the Umph it did before. Simple test is to use a known good battery like your car has to double

Good morning... I Googled "Power Brick" and get all kinds of hits on this that are not a 15v 6a device. This is one of the things I dislike about the Internet. People can buy a priority placement of

Buster, We are on grid power with a power brick of 12V 6A. We are working on changing the brick to 15V 6A per Gary Myers, No battery involved. Steve Goldberg Sent: Monday, September 4, 2023 9:03 AM
