Digest Number 39

Hi Ray

Edward at Lumicon once suggested a quick process to resolve this kind
of issue. Move one axis 360 degrees and watch the encoder position
numbers on the DSC. When the encoder resolution is off, the encoder
number will be way off when you get to the 360 position. You can then
gauge / guess what it should be and test again. Luckily both encoders
should be the same, so once you've found it on one axis you're home
free. I did this on a Gibralter mount with encoders, it should work the
same on any mount.

Trying the procedure you recommend had already occurred to me and I plan to
give it a shot next time out. Based on feedback from this group I also need
to reset the encoder resolution from the default 4000 to 4096. I can't find
anything in the documentation or any marks on the encoders that states what
the correct value should be but based on everything I've seen here, 4096
sounds like the correct choice.
