Hi, As always thanks for the response and help, I'll check out the paper Wes and the tripod again. Its not really affecting its performance, thats normally down to me, just seemed odd. Thanks, have a

Hello, Simple question I hope, I have tried using CDC which works fine but wanted to check about using CDC for alignment. If I have good polar alignment and I then use CDC to slew to a target, I then

I am having issues with trying to track on the pcm100 I was wondering if anyone can help. I have a polar scope and I also tried using explore stars app on the iPad and I still can’t track. Please help

Wes, I enjoy the time under the stars, but at my age, I am also looking forward to the automation and turning in at midnight, instead of 4 or 5am (LOL).

Thank you for the answer! I will try to contact Rodrigo. Thanks!

That is a great image. Thanks for sharing. I have added this to my list of targets for the season.

Hi, 1) i’m new to the mount too, but believe I’m right in saying that once you have aligned press SYNC first and then Enter. 2) Select an object and press ‘Slew to object’ and the screen will change t

Cool, thanks for the answers! Sounds like plate solving is simple enough to do for me and my unpatient self. Will give it a try when the weather is on my side.

I expected something like that but i dont even know if the dovetail on my OTA can be adjusted. Can i just unlock the DEC and RA axes and move the scope until polaris is in my the FOV? Yes, its 5.5x2.1

I live in a forest, so my view of the sky is very limited. I have to go somewhere, too. As you said, maybe in the future....

Hi Nihar, The PMC-Eight controller on power up sets the motor counts to zero internally in the firmware. This is reasonable because there is no assumption that the mount's physical clutches have not b

Thank you Jerry for the input. That was a question I had about locking onto the brightest star in my FOV with my 50mm guidescope. I will give that a try tonight.

I just picked up the AZ adjuster for my iEXOS-100 mount and polar aligned via Sharpcap. Wow what a difference with the AZ adjuster, so much easier. Thanks for the heads up. I got an excellent my first

Wes, The #2 stars started low in Draco and walked up thru Ursa Major then jumped to Gemini :) I had no trouble aligning at all. The mount tracked great and I actually took a photo of M42 and posted it

So, I decided to see what the Mount could do with just my 300mm Nikon lens, no scope and finally got decent results. I did a rough polar alignment and then a 2 star alignment. Then pointed towards And

I haven't tried it yet but there is an ascot driver for sale that I found through cloudy nights.

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
