Hi, Are there any applications that use the ASCOM Camera driver? I know of Maxim DL but are there others? My Artemis Camera driver is getting to the point...
Hi, I'm using the Meade driver to connect my 10micron GM2000 mount (www.10micron.it). By unsetting the track flag (e.g. on POTH) the reported RA/DEC values ...
Hi, I am trying to write a telescope control programme in C#. I think I need to display the chooser and then use the return value to create a telescope. My...
Hi Dave, Notes below... ... fine so far... ... The problem is that the published version of the Celestron Telescope driver doesn't implement the ITelescope...
If you use a "using..." statement you can save a ton of typing and benefit from Intellisense. I've been picking up some C# and I'm using the V5 stuff. I never...
I've developed an Dome driver (LesveDome) and I'm unable to connect AutomaDome to it. With AutomaDome installed I'm able to connect to POTH and POTH can ...
Chris, A zillion thanks for this - it worked perfectly. I try to use ASCOM every year or so using C++ and have got nowhere at all (even with patient help from...
Joe, Thanks for the tips - that is going to save me a load of typing. I am really starting to enjoy this .NET stuff. I just got my new USB camera from the...
Hi Dave, Thank Bob, who did the DriverAccess interface :-) I'm getting to like C# as well, although I do seem to spend a lot of time fighting the strong...
I was hoping ASCOM would be compatable with Meade DS-2000 scopes. There is a lack of support for these scopes. Meades astronmony software is horrible. Tim....
Hi Tim, If you look at the EQMOD ASCOM implementation you will find that all the software applies to any GOTO telescope. The only portion that needs to be...
The values that I have measured All value are in RA seconds () 500 ms : ======= E : + 0.28s W : +0.86s 1000ms : ======= E : +0.54s W + 1.59s 2000ms : ======= E...
Hi Julian, That looks as if guiding is working at a rate of 50% sidereal but offset from the sidereal rate. This should be solvable. It will take a few days...
Tim, It appears that Meade DS-2000 telescopes use the Autostar controller. I would think that an existing Meade ASCOM driver for Autostar should control these...
...and actually, sometimes it is clearer what is going on if you leave the fully qualified namespaces in. I tend to type things longhand if it will only be...
I realised that I had posted the sources in the zip file so I could just grab and edit it from anywhere that had VB6. So I've removed the 15 arc sec per second...
Chris -- I just tuned into this again... the 0.5 * Sidereal guide rate is a setting in TheSky/Telescope control, and may be changed independently for each...
Hi Bob, I'm using the rate command - the one that you used for the variable rates - and am setting an arbitrarily defined rate, nothing to do with any guide...
Gang, I am new to all of this. I recently purchased a Meade mount (DS2000) and autostar 494 to use as a simple Pan and Tilt mechanism(non astronomy related)....
Dear, this is my first post here. I'm having a problem with the MoveAxis() - method. The method does not immediately return and keeps the mount slewing.... ...
Hartmut, I will take a look at this when I get back home from vacation on Monday. Chuck ... From: hvb356 To: ASCOM-Talk@yahoogroups.com Sent: Thursday,...
Hey gang, I'm not sure why I'm getting this error. I have a Meade LX200GPS on equatorial mount and when trying to slew it from StarryNight 5 I get this error...
hi to all,when will release ascom 5 standard?will be able to be used the driver of version 4 in the 5?, and which changes or improvements will be in the 5?...
I ran the 'fix' for the error 2869, but it still fails on that error. So, is there a way to actually get Platform 5 to install on vista? Thanks, Chuck...
the closest driver for the atlas eq-g is celestron nexstar 5. it works with the sky 6 to a certain degree. i was wondering if this goto mount was worthy of a...
... Hi Dan, This is the Synta Synscan goto system rebadged for Orion isn't it? It was designed to run with the Celestron driver and from what I've seen does so...
