Re: Stainless Steel cable?
There's no reason why the cable should shred! This suggests there is some serious mechanical binding going on. I've used the capstan drive since day one and with the expection of people not using it

Stainless Steel cable?
Need to replace the stainless steel altitude drive cable on a 30¡± Obsession with ServoCAT that the Minnesota Astronomical Society owns and operates. Does anyone have an exact replacement cable

Declination cable issue - 22" U.C.
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

Re: Coordinate Epoch for ServoCat/Argo Navis
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

Re: Coordinate Epoch for ServoCat/Argo Navis
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

Re: Coordinate Epoch for ServoCat/Argo Navis
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

Re: Coordinate Epoch for ServoCat/Argo Navis
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
