Platesolve works fine but will not slew at all to sync.

#1

Post by RustyScopes »

I'm using Ansvr to platesolve + sync. After platesolving, the message pops up that I'm off by, usually 0.5 to 1.5 degrees, then says it's slewing to target.
But....nothing at all happens. Motors do not budge even one step. If I repeat the platesolve the message says the same thing and the coordinates are exactly as before and still no movement. I've read possible fixes for somewhat similar problems for sharpcap 4.0 version, but, my 4.0 works just fine for slewing to and centering target after platesolving.
No error messages are given.

Could you please share a log file of such a session? Best to set it as an attachment to a reaction rather then copy and paste the log, it's easier to check then.
You can fine the logs in C:\Users\YourUsername\AppData\Local\SharpCap\logs

I put just the section that has plate solving and sync above. But if the entire session is needed to help solve the problem, I attached in the file above.
Also note, I tried sharpcap version 4.0 and 4.1 and the same problem exists in both versions. I did have everything working as normal, plate solve, sync to target like it supposed to, But this was with my old laptop. Exact files and apps were downloaded to new laptop, all hardware, gear, scope, mount, etc. are the same as before, but now with this hiccup.

Hi,

This looks pretty much identical to the issue in this thread : viewtopic.php?t=6781

It looks like the Synscan app driver is silently ignoring the sync command, so the mount co-ordinates do not change to the correct ones, meaning that the following GOTO has no effect :(

As mentioned in the other thread there may be a way to fix this in the synscan app driver settings, or you can adjust the sharpcap settings.

cheers,

Robin
