I run my *Mount Computer* in settings for: Do not use power saving when plugged in. (And it is always plugged in at the mount in use) Do not sleep when plugged in. (The display) Also, no Automatic

This is the nice benefit of having this (worldwide) forum to exchange experiences and ideas. So... To respond to Brian's comment, I'd say that my overall experience with PoleMaster was positive. Many

Michael, Thanks for all the wonderful info and I now think part (or most) of my problem maybe that I am using the latest Mac beta version of Polemaster. I did download and try the earlier version but

restarting, they popped into focus nicely. I don't see where it's necessary to refocus the camera but if there's a way I wantta know! that sounds to me like maybe dew on the polemaster lens? there

Any tricks needed to know in order to do that? mmm... not really. you set up polemaster camera in the same way, then select polemaster in sharpcap as a camera, and then follow the polar align wizard

Unless they have changed the design, the focus is locked with a small allen screw on the side of the barrel that has to be loosened before you can actually turn the barrel to focus. Like the OP, mine

Thanks Michael...good to know! Stu wrote:

Dear Stu, The PoleMaster parts are shown on this website: https://cloudbreakoptics.com/products/polemaster?gclid=EAIaIQobChMIgo_kw4Pd7QIVJz6tBh0EsQ8qEAAYAiAAEgLD_vD_BwE From there, I grabbed this

Brian...Interesting about using the Pole Master camera with sharpcap. Any tricks needed to know in order to do that? Stu

Michael...I'm interested in how you adjusted the focus. I just got my Pole Master and don't see any access for the focus adjustment. Where's it at? The first time I hooked mine up the stars were big

perfect. When the pattern is matched as well as possible, one or two stars might be on the edge of a circle or even slightly outside it. I just adjust for best overall pattern match. yep - it's due to

USB port on the left - for some reason it needs to be like that - not sure if that is why you have an issue. actually you can have it any rotation the "rotate to match template" steps account for

Michael i'm so sorry. that is easily the worst user experience story i've heard on polemaster I agree the documentation (and I use that word lightly) is terrible. Is there even any documentation? lol

Hi Scott can you post a link to the video? we have a lot of them :) and maybe the time at which you mention the 'little screw' that you not have Brian

Hi Brian Scott talks about what I felt at about 1min and 29 sec. I was ambitious and impatient :) yesterday and followed the directions with the video. The thunk...thunk is gone...it was fixed with

You should also make sure your laptop is not in "Power Saver" mode. This is one of the reasons it will appear frozen, even when moving the mouse. Here is more from QHY: However, according to our test,

What's the chance that metal in your tripod caused an offset in you your iPhone compass and you were in fact not pointing due north? Or more likely, the magnetic deviation for LV is 11.41 degrees

One thing to check - when you look down at the Polemaster camera is the USB port on the left - for some reason it needs to be like that - not sure if that is why you have an issue.

Hi Tom, et al, I tried the Polemaster for the first time few weeks ago. I found the QHY software difficult to use. It has poor explanations of its commands, and was frustrating at first. As Brian
