Travis #6534 That’s reassuring to hear while I wait for it to arrive! I think at some point I put it into serial mode so I can’t use it on wifi for the time being but will update once it arrives. Thanks Bill! toggle quoted messageShow quoted text On Fri, May 8, 2020 at 12:28 PM <wcblack1020@...> wrote: Travis, Just to confirm, I had essentially this same issue with a Prolific RS232 adapter. Using a new adapter with the ftdi chipset solved the problem for me. While I was waiting for the ftdi adapter, I was able to use the mount over wifi, but only with the RS232 cable disconnected. Something with the prolific chipset (DTR maybe) kept re-initializing the controller and preparing the propeller for programming just by having it connected. The prolific driver had multiple manual settings (like reverse DTR or disable DTR, etc...), but changing those had no effect. -- Bill Location: Dallas, GA Scopes: Celestron C8, AstroTech 80mm APO Mounts: EXOS II PMC-Eight, LXD75 Cameras: ZWO ASI294MCPro, ASI385 -- Travis Hale-Vokey -- Mount: EXOS2-GT Tablet: Microsoft Surface Pro Camera: Canon sl2 dslr
