Max I tried out SkySafari. It is great for going to the comets and other objects it has. Will send the mount right to them....but it does not update the mount apparently. So the mount begins to diverg

Hello all, newbie here. I have been using my iexos-100 Mount for about a month now, along with the ES AR102 scope and still have issues with locking onto the actual target. I have to manually slew to

Hi Pascal, The firmware is now available to download via the download page or via the Configuration Manager. Please let me know how it goes. Thanks again for the catch!

APT has Meridian Flip control built into it. You need to activate it. That will prevent your issue.

I'm trying to work out the configuration to mount a guidescope/camera on an i-EXOS 100. I'm imaging with a dSLR & prime 300mm lens Do I use a side by side vixen dove tail mount like this? https://farp

Thank you very much Lloyd

Eric, You can do a lot with 5 minutes at 300mm - that's great! Thanks! No, it's faster than that. Mine's a 102/621mm. I started out with a 50/200mm guide scope, and on Jerry's advice went to a 60/280m

Hello. Always wanted a telescope my whole life and recently jumped into it with an Explore First light 80mm and for now and future a PMC Eight mount. My question is will the telescope be able to accom

I was up early on the morning of March 1st and decided to open up MSRO StationOne for some quick imaging since the sky was clear. The seeing not so good. I decided to image M51 and here is the result.

Hi Jerry, I must apologise for starting the lens vs telescope discussion and fully appreciate your concern about this. Obviously we (absolute) beginners are likely to, from time to time, seek hints fr

After having used the iExos 100 for three months, I've come to notice a few peculiar things. The mount takes polar home position on whatever the RA and DEC values were when it is powered on. Even afte

Good day Daniel, If you are using a telephoto lens make sure you do not have image stabilization-Canon, or optical stabilization-sigma turned on. JR
