After many years of owning Obsession telescope & ServoCATs, it wasn't too late to make dumb mistakes. The Alt cable on my 22" UC came out of the groove when I was moving the telescope minus the truss

Hi Bernhard, With the ServoCAT protocol, Argo Navis transmits and expects object coordinates as ICRS and airless. Sky Safari should do the same and the last time I tested it, it appeared to be doing

Hi Garry and other particpiants sorry for involving me. You mentioned Argo Navis supports precession and notation (and takes perhaps further corrections). The SkySafari program also allows some

George I’ll sure give it a try when the weather clears. Right now we are being hit with the remnants of Hurricane Ian

One thing we/I should check is if I'm doing the math right for adjusting the coordinates for a sync operation. One surefire way to tell would be whether the coordinates report the synced coordinates

Thanks all for your response. I am relaying this info to George Helios who is developing the new Servocat driver Mike

Hi Mike, For the ServoCAT protocol, Argo Navis expects and transmits coordinates in terms of ICRS (International Celestial Reference System) and expects them to be airless. ICRS was adopted by the IAU

I'll wait for Gary Kopff to weigh in ... as the expert - I am pretty sure it does matter - the epoc that is. That stated I can't remember which one is used generally. Gary Myers StellarCAT

I would think that does not matter what argo uses because it is told an RA,DEC or equivalent position to go to.? But I don't know really.? Just spouting off. Sorry.

I have been using George Hilios's new Servocat ASCOM driver which works much better with Sharpcap Pro to Plate solve and move the scope. One problem though is that when using Sharpcap's plate solve

Mike, I've responded to both your emails ... the 2nd response, because it was obvious you didn't get the first, was sent out using a different email address. please check your spam folder. Gary Myers

Hi Mike, Firstly check the LED on the ServoCAT labelled DSC. When you first interface Argo Navis and ServoCAT and power the two on, that DSC LED should begin blinking. The two units have an initial

For reason I cannot correct, AN will not connect to ServoCAT. ? All was working well until the connection failed the next time I used my OTA. ?AN is functioning normally. ?After the usual startup

There should be ASCOM logs in "Documents\ASCOM" separated by day. If you go into the ServoCAT driver settings, enable all of the log options and try again - there should be a few ASCOM files to help

Ian, Maybe I'm confused on your basic connections! The DSC HAS TO BE connected to the ServoCAT through each's serial port. And the DSC has to be used to do an alignment. Once done the DSC has to stay

Just read Paul's saga and realised the issues I am having are pretty much the same as his. Even though the utility says the version is 70.C it incorrectly reports all other parameters. Didn't see a

I have upgraded Servocat to latest v7 version (from Gary) but still cannot get NINA or Stellarium to connect to the Servocat. I am also using George's latest v7 ASCOM driver and latest version of

If you are using a Gen2 or 3 and haven't upgraded yet you might consider doing so. When coupled with the Argo Navis we've added some sweet features in there like AutoLOCK and Native Tracking ... as

Hi Gary, Thanks for the directions. ?AN and SC have been great additions to my very durable 15” Obsession. ?With those additions I now have a telescope on steroids - I should add the stalk made by

hmmm... that is odd.... drop me a line, direct please techsupport@... and let me know when you're back. g.
