Re: Meridian Flips and NINA
Running 1.11 NB 101 and just did a meridian flip using my previous posted settings taking 10min subs.? Subs continued after meridian flip - 1 subs. The meridian flip coding has changed between 1.10
Re: Meridian Flips and NINA
Edward, I'm using NINA 1.10 HF3, but i can try the Nightly build. Regarding the HA after the tracking is paused. I looked at the Gemini.net app and it also stop counting. So what i said is for Gemini,

Are you asking me or another Paul? :) I've never used NINA, so have no parameters to share, I'm afraid. Regards, -Paul

Paul, were you going to post your parameters for us to look over? -- Edward

Re: Meridian Flips and NINA
Gemini.NET reports that it supports setting Side of Pier, and will ask Gemini to perform a flip when so requested. Gemini has internal logic that determines if and when a flip is possible. Regards,

Re: Meridian Flips and NINA
First I use the nightly build. Second the flip used to work. Third the flip happens, but it stays on the same side of the pier and eventually hits the limit. Forth I have tried to do this during the
Considering a GM811G
Hi all, I'm in the market for a new mount for both astrophotography and visual use, and I'm strongly considering picking up a GM811G. The largest payload I currently have is a 130mm triplet refractor

Re: Meridian Flips and NINA
Edward - I have been following the discussions here and on Discord.? This does need more investigation and Gemini-II innerworkings need to be explained to the NINA dev team.? ?I haven't been having

Re: Meridian Flips and NINA
Chatted with Stefan over on NINA Discord and explained about the issue with pausing. He pointed out that even if the mount is paused, the effective Hour Angle of the *target* to which the eventual

Re: Very odd polar align issue
Nick once you are satisfied with your polar alignment (even if you think it's suspect) please to a baseline guiding just to see what it looks like. If your PA is indeed off it will be readily apparent

Re: Changing the servo motor encoders from 256 to 512 or 1024. Any reason not to do this?
I'm not Alan...but I'll pitch in some ideas... 240 sec is the worm period of a G11 (and half the worm period of a GM8). {Actually 239.344 sec} The term "confounded" is used in statistics to mean when

Re: Very odd polar align issue
Ok. Let's see what might be wrong: 1. Are your tripod legs really secure? Depending on your tripod, if it has telescoping legs, under heavy weight (depending on your scope and counterweight load), the

Re: Very odd polar align issue
Will give this a try. I inspected the mount. Tightened everything and checked the bolts. Mount appears perfect abs rigid and working exactly as it is supposed to. My theory is that my initial

Alan, Are saying that a piece coupler might be best overall in minimizing co-linear problem of the two shafts and provide an overall lower ?240s error? Do you have any recommendations? Peter

Yet another DIY spring loaded worm - ultra minimalist approach
I have a quite old G11 (18yrs) with a brass RA and steel DEC worm which I got for $100 w/o weights or controller. With a complete clean/lube and Gemini-II w/new motors- I've used it for about a year
