ASCOM THE SKY DRIVER

However, I want to mount the CCD to a mount in the garden but do not want to collect the data with a laptop. The Setup dialog box will appear:. I've also tried the SharpCap native Plate solver with the astrometrics install from ASPS, it tries to solve takes a while, but can't find a solution. I've just released a small update to the AllSkEye application which mostly contains bug fixes. Hi Mike, It has been running non stop without issue as far as I can tell for 48 hours. I have a question regarding an error message that keeps occurring during the alignment process with the ASCOM driver using digital setting circles. I've tried the newest version, and specifically wanted to play with the ROI.

Or sign in with one of these services. You should now be pointed at your desired target. If this happens to you, manually edit the name so that it is correct.

Hi Mike, Any idea on the plans for the next release? This driver works with either alt-az mounts like a dobsonian or equatorial mounts. Will your ascom driver work with losmandy dsc? I believe they are supposed to be tic encoders. I have a question regarding an error message that keeps occurring during the alignment process with the ASCOM driver using digital setting circles.

I've also tried the SharpCap native Plate solver with the astrometrics install from ASPS, it tries to solve takes a while, but can't find a solution. But the software only has the serial setup option? Second Alignment Step Again, extreme accuracy is not required. This can be used to solve a video driver problem where application main window displays blank no controls visible.

Good that is works though! Sorry for the long post. All data collecting and generation software is wrote on C, Python and Bash.

No telescope alignment will be perfect across the entire sky, and you can use the Sync command to reduce the errors in parts of the sky ghe the initial alignment is not so good. I did have an ASC set up in my last house that was running under a Raspberry Pibut had a few issue with it and would like to try something different.

Also, for most hardware, make sure that the hardware was initialized with the correct resolutions. Is there a way to use this method while only running your software?

I have tried the others and they all produce the same error. Every time you start a new session with Cartes du Ciel or any other software using the ASCOM driver you will need to do the two star alignment. Added support for safety sk and observing conditions interfaces, extended support for new astronomy applications and drivers that have appeared since ASCOM version 6.

Developers of astronomical software can use the ASCOM standard to allow their software to talk to any kind of telescope that includes an ASCOM-compliant driver, eliminating the need to develop a separate interface for each popular type of telescope out there.

The full list of improvements:. Again, extreme accuracy is not required. Cheers MIke, I'll have a test throughout the week. Here I wanna describe project that I build for my observatory.

The ASCOM driver expects a specific set of characters, sent serially, and will not respond to anything else. All images are postprocessed by the software. Thanks for the report.

Gemini-2 controls the mount encoders, but not absolute encoders attached to the mount axis. Yes, for ASI cameras there are certain restrictions for width and height of a subframe capture.

Just tried to detect the Altair camera without luck. Prev 1 2 3 Next Page 2 of 3. If you spot anything else please let me know!
