Folks The asi air employs a driver. The driver is responsible for sending commands to the mount. If the asi air fails to properly move the mount during any commanded operation the fault is in the driv

Devesh Thank you for assuring me that I wasn't going crazy with issue 1 because so many people guide successfully with this setup. It feels like the mount is misinterpreting the commands from the asi

Devesh It is reasonable to have it enabled by default. It’s probably not possible to get this done for units ES has already produced. I can make the next firmware release, maybe set it on after boot t

Wes, I already turned it ON. Surely you cannot expect anyone to keep their screen running through the night especially when you are imaging using a phone. No other mounts have this turned off and they

Devesh It is not crazy that a mount would have this ability to stop on its own when comms stop. Think about it. Why might someone want that? There is a good answer. But, in keeping with the flexibilit

Steve, I have a same setup barring the camera. My observation about calibration are similar to yours. The star doesn't go back to its original position from South slewing. However, i just let asi air

For either visual or for photographing brighter objects the iEXOS100 with two or three star alignment using the ES App works very well. But first make sure the mount is levelled and balanced and with

You would use the two or three star alignment method in the explorestars software. This will correct the alignment error for you. So if you are using the mount for visual work. Get Polaris in the tube

no, once the polaris is visible through the tunnel do not move/touch the mount tripod, to slew to a target use the software to do so.

HI,tell me please ,after I fit the polar star into the shaft (I don’t have polar scope yet ), do I need to move the mount to another position manually?

Once in a century.... (The azimuth adapter is really needed)

My iexos100 works best with a 2 star allignment when using the app. After that its pretty much spot on at every target i pick. We had some clear skies last night, did a quick "dirty" polar allignment

Leveling the mount head is a bit of an urban legend, and a time waster. Mathematically, it is totally irrelevant to mount performance - you just don't want to be so far tilted that you are mechanicall

Mine read well off as well. I was using the bubble level on the mountl to level it. My guiding was struggling a bit, leveled the tripod before putting the mount on and found the mount off by over two

Waid: The 3 star alignment algorithm will remove most of your polar alignment error, but doing it successfully is not the easiest thing you ever will do. There are multiple factors that contribute to
