Hello all, I need to repair/replace the RA gearbox on my G11 with OPWB and Maxxon motors. Looking up instructions, I can see that this is relatively simple for standard worm/block with worm gear

Re: Problem controlling GM811G with latest ASIAIR Plus
I'd love to see the logs, but ASIAIR requires internet access since the only way to get at the logs is to email them. If you're imaging in the field using the internal ASIAIR wifi, you're out of luck.

The iconic bubble nebula is 7 light-years across and 7,100 light-years from Earth in the constellation Cassiopeia. I've tried to capture the percussion effect in this image, in the waves of radiating

Re: Problem controlling GM811G with latest ASIAIR Plus
If the issue was successful plate solving but the centering routine never quite made it after successive attempts, then yes this would be something to look at My understanding from the OP was that it

Re: Problem controlling GM811G with latest ASIAIR Plus
This link on the Facebook ASIAIR page explains the issues. Basically, change mount setting to Jnow. https://www.facebook.com/groups/ASIAIR/permalink/1864925700337311/

Re: Problem controlling GM811G with latest ASIAIR Plus
I had something similar with the original version. It turned out it was a difference between Jnow and J2000 settings between the mount and the ASI Air. Off the top of my head, both should be set to

Re: Problem controlling GM811G with latest ASIAIR Plus
I must be missing the story then? :) That doesn't really say anything other than the mount and asiair were in agreement to within 1 arcsecond of the slew and app. That is probably a pixel or two (not

Re: Problem controlling GM811G with latest ASIAIR Plus
Hi Brian, The image attached tells the story. ASIAIR's auto-centering fails to plate-solve and never centers the object in the FOV. Notice the coordinate mismatch. It's just 1 arc-second difference,

Re: Resetting spring-loaded worm
If your back off screw doesn't seem to be working it could be that the bottom cap screws are just a bit too snug to let the OPW move. If they are just a little bit too snug they lock the OPW into

Re: Resetting spring-loaded worm
If I unscrew the back-off screw I should see that the gears offer great resistance as a consequence of the worm getting pushed to the gear, right?? Well, this is not the case. If I unscrew the

Re: Resetting spring-loaded worm
Daniel How are you measuring this effect? It's impossible for the backoff screw to have no effect if you have the spring tension set correctly - or at least I've never encountered a situation where

Re: Resetting spring-loaded worm
Hi Brian, Thank you for your answer. I have tried to adjust the DEC SLW starting with resetting the spring length to about 8.4mm . What I have found is that the secondary, i.e. back-off screw, does
