Mount Plate Solve & Sync not syncing

#1

Post by Clutchplate »

I am on SharpCap 3.2.6480 and cannot get the Plate Solve & Sync button to work correctly. It does the solve just fine, but no attempt to Sync the mount seems to be made. I have attached a logfile of this scenario.

Hi,

given what shows in the log and what doesn't, can you check to see if you have changed the 'After solving' action to 'Do Nothing' in the plate solve settings? That would fit best with the log - see https://docs.sharpcap.co.uk/4.0/#Plate%20Solving%20Tab

cheers,

Robin

Oh boy, well now I feel dumb, looks like a case of RTFM. Didn't realize that was an option. Sorry. Maybe the tooltip on the icon could say something about this....

Cheers,

Hi,

glad that's sorted.

Not a bad idea to add a notification message though, even though the 'do nothing' option is not the default, so to get it you need to select it manually (at least that's the way it *should* happen!)

cheers,

Robin
