Re: Model params remaining zero
|
you didn't say which firmware you are on?
There must be something?missing in your process or your description. This has worked for many people and has not changed for a decade or more
>>>Cold start, check date time site loc- all ok How far are you from the target? if your goto results are significantly far from the target, there's a setting that's incorrect, there's not really any other explanation for the behavior you are describing.
you can test this without having to be under the stars, just cold start, GOTO, pick any target that's above the horizon, slew to it, press a few diamond buttons? so there's some adjustment to the position, menu->model->alignment
then you can look at the model values. Just tried it here
Cold start, check date time site loc- all ok --- case one?? Menu, align, pick star from bright star list. wait for the goto to show done? Most times I see that it is still in slew for speed. change that to center.? Menu to look at model params? all zero. Select align to get to alignment page, select alignment, menu to go back to model params - still zeros
tried using back to move to next start and go around again..? same behavior? all zeros.
For manual approach I'll have to try tonight and right it down..? Old gemini 2 i traded in for the mini I was able to getworking - so am suspecting its me, but was concerned about the possible ARM issue. Battery checked showing 3.1 volts...source showing 13.2v
