Discussion on the kits for the Losmandy G11 and G8 OPW has been moved here Also I made video of my mount slewing at high speed here Peter

Oh boy! Does that mean no more Onstep controllers😞😩😡

Chad. Where do I get this version? Do you have a copy you could email me? Peter

For example: Clock button that works: "<button name='qb' class='bb' value='st' onpointerdown='SetDateTime();' title='" L_HINT_CLOCK "' type='submit'>" CLOCK_CH "</button>" Park and unpark buttons that

Well looking at the control HTML code it would seem that all the buttons are disabled except for the clock. ??

Chad, I think this must be the case. Do I have to edit the ccs code out? Why was it added? Peter

I'm having problems with the browser interface when accessing Onstep using an Apple tablet. Is it possible to move the mount via the interface? I have know idea what the picture buttons mean. When I t

@George I do not think it is thermal related. I can immediatly slew the scope again after the slew stops. No delay. Also the current reading while skewing at speed is relatively low, around 300mA per

While slewing, I have recently experienced a sudden dead stop, usually about halfway to the target. Please, what might be happening here? Is it a current setting problem perhaps, or something else? Ma

I was wondering if it is possible to swap the Ra and Dec channels in my MaxESP32 controller, or is this hard wired? Peter

Alex, I have the Oriental nema 17 400 step motor. These are being used to directly drive the end of the worm. I need the higher torque of the nema23 to make this work well and achieve higher slew rate

George, I have two motor sizes. 2.0A and 2.7A. What would you recommend the config.h motor setting be? Where are the Vref pots, and what do they do? Peter

Currently I am successfully driving a smaller nema23 motor using the TMC5160. I have set the IRUN current to 1800mA. I'm not sure this is a valid value for the particular driver, or even the correct v

Gilles, While folks here compliment you on your purchase of an AP mount for the price you paid, I do not for choice in motor. Get 400 step motors, those 200 step ones are not up to the job! Peter

McMaster has belts and pulleys for 1/4" bore. https://www.mcmaster.com/pulleys/for-belt-trade-size~gt2/ Being able to get a belt quickly is a major convenience, as I could not be quite sure what sizes

On reflection, I think you have this backward. The small pulley goes on the motor that are mostly 5mm for nema 17. The large pulley goes on the worm which is 1/4" or 6.35mm. Peter

I think you will find McMaster has 1/4" shaft GT2 12t and 16t pulleys. Not sure on the 12t, but that is rather too small I would think? Very fast delivery and a great company. Peter

George, I found a manufacturer in Europe. I looked very hard for a nema 23 dual axial 0.9 degree stepper with 1/4" shaft, and it seems the Chinese do not make them at all! But I did find a company in
