Re:Alpha testing of SX M25C

Hi Robin,

While I can connect the camera to AA6 and Neb 4, I can not do so in SC3.1. Any idea why?
I have the latest ASCOM build.
Thanks,
Jim

Re: Looking for alpha testers...

Hi Robin,

Glad to know the SDK has an Alpha build set for the SX. Now it's just a matter of testing.
I have a cooled SXM25C so I'm waiting with abated breath for beta testing. Can I help out at all?

Re: Looking for alpha testers...

Hi Robin,

I'm in, especially since I asked to get my SX25C up and running with SC. I have two ZWO 1071's the SX25C and 5 Lodestars.

cheers,

Re: Starlight Express not listed. Why?

That's good news Robin! I knew SX would help out. AstroArt6 has all the imaging devices in their arsenal, so with the Lodestar X2 which I also have, you should have no problems. Looking forward to the update! Aside, should SC automatically kick-in imaging/frame grabbing when it finds a camera? I jus...

Re: Starlight Express not listed. Why?

Robin,

Terry Platt of SX may not be aware of this dilimima. Have you contacted him re this?

I have one of his cams (SXV25C) and if push comes to shove, I can ship mine over to you, so you can do what you have to do. How long would you need the camera for?

cheers,

Jim

Starlight Express not listed. Why?

Hi Robin,

When will S/Cap have the SX line of cameras in their arsenal? Why haven't they been added earlier?
Using ASCOM for the SX 25C for instance, S/Cap hangs.

Only get 5 stars. Is this right?

Hi Robin, I only get 5 stars max. not 15 as supposed to. I use a ZWO 1071C on a RASA and Titan 50 mount. My skies are to Mv 6.0. That said, I have tried an increase in Gain and Exposure but no deal. So how can one get more stars?? Can I do an accurate plate solve/PA with only 5 stars? Aside, will Sh...

Re: Auto Saving an image

Many thanks, Robin for this speedy reply. I will do as you said. I love your program and accolades to your coding skills..!! Q/ Can S/Cap do plate solving? If so, out to what FOV will it cover? Looking forward to your Manual when it comes out. BTW, I live in Queensland, Australia and do Asteroid sea...
