Hi will do the same ephemeris check on the Android, it should be pretty much the same because the ephemeris code is identical across the platforms. Thanks

Thanks Kent! Helping me twice in one day. Great pic. Good news, it doesn't look like I busted the pin inside. Scott

Hello, I am writing about a deviation that I observe when using the EXOS-2 with Explore Star APP for Android from the southern hemisphere. I set up the station with polar finder with Sigma Octantis, a

I have been reading everyone's battery suggestions and I thought I would add a bit of data to the mix. I installed a power meter on my PMC-8 Exos2 so that I could see my total current draw from 12 vol

Yes, I am in contact with them. Just wanted to avoid unneccesary trouble caused by some trivial issue, such as bad contact in the power adapter connector (but I suppose the red LED would not turn on a

Yes, exactly! That's what really made a difference for me.

Agreed Wolfgang, I am still attempting to zero in on the NCP and hopefully, my skies will clear so I can see Polaris. I am having a ton of fun learning. I was only interested in planet imaging, but no

I think my problem is deeper than that. Software for the PMC-8 like PMC-8 configuration manager doesn't communicate with PMC-8 on the mount.

I bought this SCT, good price. So going through the scope manual controls and viewing is two thumbs up👍👍. The motor and timer motor no so good. So, 1.my nostalgic side says fix the electrical. 2. My a

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

Wolfgang Well if you shoot with short enough Fl you can shoot with pointmode I imagine. But anytime you do not have a good mechanical polar alignment you will get field rotation. Even In track mode if

I really don't appreciate your threats to go back to Amex and OPT to get a full refund without you demonstrating an ounce of due diligence to get your system working. I don't really know what you woul

Thanks Ji, that's good to hear. I saw a similar improvement as measured by the TDM, down to 0.35 arc-seconds RMS.

No worries Tom, I just didn't want those that are new to the PMC-Eight to think that they had to use some other program to manage the DTR, that is unless they are trying to run the PMC-Eight under LIN
