Another is to time the movement across a pair of crosshairs to calculate the separation of a binary pair. Lately I turn off tracking, watch some TV and go back out without worry of the scope hitting

One reason, old school, is to time a star moving across an eyepiece to calculate field of view, if I remember correctly. Ken

I just measured those bolts. Both the bottom hold down bolts for the worm blocks to the mounting plate, and the side OPW bolts for the worm blocks to the OPW, are 10-32 thread. Greg will source the

Thank you all again for the superb replies.? I am probably going to go with the G11G and Polemaster w/ sharpcap.? I do like the idea of the tripod on the dolly. If I do that, then it will be a huge

Sonny, There is nothing authentically American about using imperial fasteners. As to why Losmandy uses imperial fasteners I think they were more widely in use by American machinists at the time the

Put the slew/guide setting at 2X and pull the E pin to ground n the guider (aka ST4). That will shut off the RA. Mark Christensen

Why do you want to stop RA traking surely the object will rapidly drift out of view? D. Sent: 12 August 2020 18:57 To: [email protected] Subject: [Losmandy_users_io] How to pause a 492 digital

I'm doing a circuit on this now but cannot release all the info due to CIC but can give enough to accomplish a task like this. Give me a few days I'm almost done my cct.? I guess you could run it on

Hi Greg! I'm pretty new around here, with a new mount. But everything I've seen is American Standard size, thread, and pitch. I haven't taken mine apart (nor do I plan to). Scott's use of all American

I, too, run a GM811G HD. On occasion mine would go haywire and do a 180° slew. *A Factory Reset ( https://youtu.be/j8DVEvnlBYI )* fixed the odd behavior. Which also requires you do your initial set

You are very welcome, Ryan. I only got familiar with these "hidden" gear settings when I changed my gearboxes to McLennan metal ones, from the stock plastic version. The stock plastic ones were fine

Thanks Michael for this response.? I changed the values to the ones you stated in your post and this solved the issue.? First goto from CWD was almost in the field of view of my lowest powered

John, Why do you need to stop it tracking? Obviously, you could power it down or unplug the RA cable. Paul

Hi Ryan, I had a similar issue recently. I purchased a used G11 and I had a minor pointing issue, which caused me to replace the battery and do a firmware update. After that my pointing was much more

Brendan, Sounds interesting. Can this interrupt switch be incorporated into the hand controller? Any diagram or photo would be helpful. Added a couple photos of what I'm up to. Thanks, John

Fixing a 492 drive atm. It’s stepper driver has an Output Enable pin which can be used to stop output stepper drive. ?I’m sure it’s already digitally utilised but the. cct could be hacked with

Since the 492 isn’t useful for slewing the mount any significant distance, and there’s no calibration or model to worry about, turning it off works just fine. -Les

Chip is correct - there is no terrestrial model (no tracking) or other way to stop tracking on the 492 other than to power it off -- Brian Brian Valente portfolio brianvalentephotography.com

I think you want to set the limits to High values...> 90 (degrees). The limits are "measured" with respect to the CWD direction...i.e. near zenith. A low limit limits you to be near CWD. Always use a

Hi John, I'm pretty sure you are out of luck on that one. AFAIK there is no way to run off the RA tracking other then the power button. -- Chip Louie - Chief Daydreamer Imagination Hardware
