Hmm, it does flip ok at least some of the time given that when I tried a cancel instead of an emergency stop it was actually flipping. When I did the emergency stop were the coordinates it was being told to go to reasonable?

It seems that the emergency stop causing a hang might be due to problems lower down in the stack, this is being looked at. Ok so I was close to the meridian, one day I will work out exactly where that is :D I usually avoid flip’s having had similar problems before with kstars. Seems to be some probl...

I think Ive managed to dig out one of the appropriate logs. My mount is an iexos-100, so no hand controller and there are no limits that I know of that the user would set in the mount or its ascom driver afaik. The time I did a cancel instead of an emergency stop it completed its slew which was basi...

ok perhaps I’m trying to do something that’s not possible in sharpcap (currently… :D ) What i had done is setup, polar align and then used goto catalog target to point my scope at Deneb. I then took a set of images and videos. Then I powered down everything and changed a jumper on the mounts circuit...

Hi I was running some tests on my mount hardware last night and needed to power everything off while pointing at a particular point (in this case Deneb). When I powered things back on I wanted to carry on taking images, however when I did a platesolve and resync the platesolve failed. Doing a plates...

Hi the new sharpsolve works well. Last night I accidentally did my polar alignment using my main scope rather than guidescope. My main scope is a C6 with a focal reducer and an imx585 based camera (not a good combo for a beginners I suspect people will think but I’m having fun) giving a fov of 0.57 ...

I ran into this problem with my imx585 camera and the cliff edge change in noise. I ended up running a single line script to set sampling points either side of the switch in mode so when the analysis ran it saw the change. Unfortunately I cannot remember what the exact script/line was. Will dig it o...
