Good day, I can provide some insight on item (3): Reasons this may occur: 1. Make sure your mount is aimed true North. 2. Your mount needs to be level. You should check all corners of the tripod legs:

Howdy, Confirmed. The iEXOS-100 has the interface built-in, so the only thing required is a USB2.0 to USB mini cable. I think often times people end up buying or using a charging cable from the mobile

Good day all, I’ve decided to make the leap from using a DSLR to a dedicated astrophotography camera given my results using a guidescope camera for planetary imaging. The camera I decided to go with i

Howdy, Just so you know up front, I mostly do planetary imaging. I’ve dabbled a little into DSOs. I don’t think it’s the mount. The EXOS-2GT PMC8 can hold a lot of weight. I’ve seen it handle over 80I

Good day Wes, There are no issues on my end with Android 9. Android 11 does not connect to the database. Google made more changes with Android 11. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RjyYCUW-9tY&list=PLH5

Howdy, You need to change the WiFi connection in the Configuration manager to 1.03. This menu will pop up in Poth Scope Dome Setup under ASCOM. For the IEXOS-100, the correct WiFi module is the ESP-WR

Good day Sir, 60-second subs on a iEXOS-100, unguided, is pretty tricky. You have to make sure of the following: 1. the payload is balanced properly in the RA and DEC axis. 2. I can’t see Polaris eith

Howdy, OK, now you have to figure out why the new laptop is not connecting since it did previously. Perhaps you can compare your new laptop settings and old settings to see if you see a difference. JR

Good day Peter, Sounds good. JR

Good day Voyager, I need to get a baseline for where you are currently: 1. Your IPad connects via wireless to the mount? 2. Your Windows PC cannot connect to the mount via wireless or serial? 3. What

Good day Sir, I see you are working with Wes as well. I will read the follow ups and chime in if I can be of assistance. JR

Good day Mike, Thank you. I first posted a longer version of this on Feb.23.2019 in the Beginners Forum; And then a shorten version on Apr.26.2020 to the Main Forum. I have reached an age where if I d

Good day Voyager, This might work for you. JR These are the steps I use to connect Explore Stars (UDP) to ASCOM Wireless (TCP) and finally Explore Stars (UDP) to ASCOM Serial. Don’t laugh at me, I nee

Good day and thank you Mario. I am still a newbie regarding planetary imaging; I started in May of 2018. I was using a Sunpak tripod and a Benro ballhead. Then I came across Sir Jerry and another indi
