I have but I got lost in what I'm supposed to be measuring. I'm not that good with electronics so I get easily confused. Am I supposed to be measuring voltage?

I have 2 lv8729s. One uses a VREF/0.5 formula while the other uses VREF/1.1 formula. What should I set my multimeter to when measuring and which pins to hold the needles on? My motors are rated at 1.7

Thank you so much! Sorry for not stating which I'm using. Both are Lv8729s. I'll order new ones and see how it'll go from there. Vref doesn't seem to be the problem as anything I set, results end up b

Hey guys! I started having problems with my DEC axis during a slew. The motor just started stalling after 8 months of proper tracking and I'm not sure what's causing it. The motor seems to be fine as

It's possible. I'm getting around 1" with an eq3-2 using multiple stars in Phd2.

I currently use the t7c astro camera for both guiding and planetary. I switched from the zwo driver to the ascom one and haven't had many disconnections. Works in proper fps for planetary though. I st

Checking now it does pass the meridian, but long before I start the goto. Scope still goes to the side before the meridian. Should I change the meridian limit?

Hello, I was wondering if it was possible to change the side my scope goes to when imaging? I was thinking of taking some shots of the Helix nebula, but my scope always goes to the side where the coun

I'm sorry for not understanding this right, but what new options does this open? With what can it be controlled outside of imaging software? Eqmod or is poth still the main controller (I used it as su

Alright, I'll do it as soon as the clouds clear. Thanks!

I'm afraid my backlash is a lot bigger than that. I used 8x speed to estimate the time needed for movement. Since it's 16 times faster I multiplied (16x7.5)x"time until movement". Would this work? My

I haven't since phd2 tutorials stated that I shouldn't have any backlash compensation outside of phd2. Might try though.

Hello, I have an eq3-2 mount with a lot of dec backlash. There's a feature in Green Swamp Server that sends goto pulses instead of guiding pulses which could potentially brute force through some of it

So once it's recorded and playing I should hit record again? Does recording PEC work better with full dual axis tracking support or without it? Thanks for the info! Helps a lot.

I have exported the PEC through Sky Planetarium and imported it into PECprep. Smoothed it out and imported it through Sky Planetarium. It seems to work. Hope it works for you! :)

Have you tried smoothing out the wave in PECprep?

Such a beautiful capture! Great job!!

Hey guys, thank you for the replies! I recorded PEC while guiding manually last night and got 7 HFR stars on a 10 minute shot without guiding. I can certainly achieve 60s exposures with good enough st

Thanks for the tip! How long of exposures are you able to achieve and at which focal length?

Will do thanks guys! čet, 16. srp 2020. u 01:22 Graeme <grmwebb70@...> napisao je:
