Dear all After having updated servocat to version 7 and ArgoNavis to version 3.04. I have for the first time succesfully? observed ISS with AN/servocat . Ssssooooo happy ! I have made some

ok. So - remind me (sorry - replied to email and not the thread on the group) ... did you change out the motor encoder cable? Maybe replace that. If its not that then one thing I would see

Both the AZ and ALT motors work as expected using the HC, at all slew speeds. My problem is (way maybe) intermitted, it would start slewing in AZ (clockwise) on its own, with nobody touching

And you're sure you were seeing the red DSC light flashing for this whole time? Does the AZ motor work if you use the HC to slew it? I'd just stuck with this as the test. g.

Thanks Mike finally I found ?a 3D printing website where, after uploaded the file, it indicates the global dimension if the file is in mm or in inch so I realized that the file was in mm. There is a

Finally getting back to looking at this. My one attempt at putting the SC into EasyTrack mode didn't provide any clues.? It's likely I never configured the EasyTrack settings in the SC since when I

Also, I typically print items using PETG filament, it has a higher glass transition temperature (85C) than PLA (60C).? I've left PLA items in my vehicle and I've found they have warped if I've parked

Gary, So true. When I first was introduced to SST scopes at Chiefland Astronomy Village, their secondary cage was fixed. As more and more SST owners started using MallinCams and focal reducers, Mike

The SST will by design have a larger secondary - Mike does that knowing people will want to image with it. But the comment re the UC is interesting. Unfortunately I can't say that it translates well

Mike, Indeed I had forgotten you do this from inside. So - yes it stays on, or should (I've not tested this as its from the planetarium GOTO function). It will lock on the point where the GOTO ends.

Sorry Raphael - I missed the message. The units are in mm.? Designed in TinkerCAD.

Gary, My 1982 17.5” f/4.58 Coulter mirror set came with a 4.24” rectangular secondary with clipped corners. When I built my AstroSystems TeleKit, I bought a 3.5” elliptical secondary and it

Thanks Gary, So to clarify- I am doing this remotely from inside my house once my telescope has been setup, aligned and argo put in “From Planetarium” mode. So where you say: “So what you can do

Gary, Yes to get a fully illuminated field for my 18” f4.3 I upgraded my 3.5” secondary to a 4”. I used a calculator somewhere online which showed the differences for different size secondaries

As Jack H to do a light cone drawing for you. That will tell you the answer. Mickey

Ok... so making progress, I think, in my mind how camera selections. But something just hit me. The secondary size. Obsession intentionally used smaller secondaries as the intent of the scope was

Hi Mike, So - there is no command to control AutoLOCK. It turns on a closed loop tracking system whereby the ServoCAT and the AN lock around a point (where it is turned on OR where it was 3/4 second

I know I asked a similar question back in 2021 but I am trying to better understand auto lock and use of synch. I have read the instructions in the pdf file for the latest firmware but it isn’t

Mike: The post I was referring to is Message #215 at https://www.cloudynights.com/topic/866162-pifinder-open-source-self-contained-plate-solving-finder-for-dobs/page-9 I think in order to view the

Another great tool(s) to check fov, suitability etc…is astronomy.tools website. There are lots of great calculators on there for both visual or imaging. You can also see what a particular object
