Hi Bob, Thanks for your questions. You are correct, disabling the communications watchdog timer is most applicable to those who are doing astrophotography with ExploreStars and want the capability to

Thanks for the instructions, Jerry. One question though... since we are using the USB cable, I assume the mount's wifi needs to be set to serial first, correct? Or, does that happen automatically when

Jerry, Thanks! Done, no issues so far. ESGv! looks ok. Mount responds to slews indoors after restert. That change to 700ma was supposed to smooth out motor action and improve tracking, wasn't it? I'll

Hi Bob, I really don't expect much difference as far as the motor current increase from 600 mA to 700 mA as far as any smoothing action is concerned. It is about a 15% increase in torque which is alwa
