FYI If you are going to remove the backlash by 'last moves' you need to be aware of the sidereal direction which is a function of where you are in the sky. So if you are east, at 90/38, Gabriel, then

Hi Mike, No, when using the ST4 cable and checking "use dec compensation" in PHD2 settings you only have to calibrate once in the beginning of the evening. At the moment i calibrate at about 90 AZ and

Gabriel, I am still trying to understand all of this. One big question I have is: does calibration need to be done for every object or every session? Also I think an issue for me is going to be a

Thanks Gabriel for the info, I have a couple of those cords. Mickey

If you can find the industry equivalent which is 6P6C RJ12 that is 10 FT long (it was in stock in a local shop here in Sweden) you will save money since it's "not for astronomy". 10 FT should be

Thanks again Gabriel , one last question LOL, where did you get an st4 cable long enough to go from the UTA down to the ServoCat? Mickey

Yes it's a 50mm finder. It's monted with one screw without any Velcro, i think what you are seeing is masking tape which i used to not damage the paint job. It is important that the Guidescope does

Thank you Gabriel The scope looks like a 50mm finder scope ??? I have an Orion 55mm finder scope and can easily mount it just like you did using Velcro, correct? Mickey

Thank you Mickey! Sure, here you go: First here you have the AUX/AG port on the back of the ServoCAT where you plug in the ST4 cable. Then the ST4 cable goes to the back of the Guidecamera. My cable

Gabriel that's outstanding. 2 weeks I ago I wanted to test the new nexus firmware I finally installed . At the start I started having WiFi problems. I called Serge and we figured out the WiFi problem

Thank you Gary, Indeed! /Gabriel

Fantastic job Gabriel! Congratulations... I will say the ServoCAT system is doing a great job... but one very important key here is how well Mike "tunes" his custom telescopes. The ability to move

I had read online that Multi-star guiding does not work with alt/az mounts due to field rotation. Yesterday i gave it a try just for fun, and it not only works but the difference is day and night, i

Rajeev, Ok ... so first off did you go in to the settings for the Sky Commander and check them? The default value is not 9600! Second are you sure you have the 2 jumpers behind the front jack lined up

Hi, Gary, I tried again, by moving the 4th jumper to connect both pins, and trying the ServoCat with Sky Commander again.? But the red DSC light still doesn't come on. I'm next going to replace the

Rajeev, Re the comment about not connecting via ASCOM. It won't connect unless the DSC is connected to the ServoCAT and aligned. This is a prerequisite. And of course as you've found the jumper is the

Rajeev, Ok - thanks for info re older unit. Bill took care of you there. Good to know. As for the jumper - yes - it has to be across those 2 pins (9600 baud forced) and not off of one (which is for

Hi, Gary, Thanks for the detailed response.? I had sent the old (Gen3 ServoCat Jr) unit back to Bill in December, but after inspection, he said it couldn't be repaired.? That's how I ended up buying

Hi Gary. Rajeev returned his first GEN3 board to me in December. I had to replace the USB connector that had been pulled loose or off. After replacing the USB connector the board was completely

However, I know of numerous cases of equipment burning out, for example during lightning strikes.
