Thanks. I will give those suggestions a try.

Robin, I've been using various versions of 4.1 as they have been released and the capture flats utility has these small spikes at 25 and 75% that give me saturation warnings. In some of the previous versions they were bigger and, at one point, they were every 5%. I do not see these when shooting dar...

If SC does not require a sync to the mount then I don't think it was the issue. Just in case the mount and SC were not "in sync", I started tested by started the sequence on a target that was well past the meridian and I also tried 1,5, 10, etc degrees before the meridian in case they were...

Thats Perfect Robin. I used to write a lot of code so being able to just add a character at the beginning of the line is really valuable. Without that, I've had to copy the code to a new sequence and edit and then try to remember what I changed to edit the original. I've ended up with several versio...

That would be great. Sometimes even commenting out a line of code for testing purposes would be a great benefit.

Hey all, I’m pretty close to having a fully automated sequence and am now down to just the flip. I’ve tested a flip sequence that platesolves, saves the cords, and then does a GoTo and it works. Now, I just need a trigger. I’ve been trying to use the RUN xxxx UNTIL 1 DEGREES BEFORE THE MERIDIAN comm...

Thanks. Probably all true about CPWI. Unfortunately, when it rejects the sync, if that is what it is doing, it confuses the mount so all subsequent GoTo's are way off and when I go Home and then try to Park the mount it's spins off in crazy directions. The only solution is to power it off and realign.

I’ll try it that way if I can get it to sync.

Other than upgrading CPWI and SC to 4.1 beta, any thoughts on why Sync says complete but doesn’t actually sync?

That was it! Once I ran the commands in a sequence I was able to get it to flip successfully several times. One giant step closer to being able to sleep through the night. The last issue I have is syncing the mount. The flips were pretty close but the target was offcenter about an inch and being abl...

I have them in a sequence but I was running the commands manually before I ran the entire sequence which included the platesolve, stop dither, stop guiding, etc, etc. Sounds like it has to be part of a sequence so I just need to run it. I will do that tonight then. Once I get past that I will look i...
