Ajai, I called AP and they said I have the latest. The keypad has version 3.09 and they said it would not interface to the mount unless the mount had the D...
Replied directly to Gil. Will post the results of our investigation once we figure it out. ... From: Gil Jones To: ASCOM-Talk@yahoogroups.com Sent: Thursday,...
I have fixed a bug in the AP driver. The SlewToTargetAsync method got deleted somehow in the last version. This was causing the error that Gil saw with ACP 3...
Thanks to Ajai and Gil Jones for persisting in the diagnosis and solution of this one. {clap clap...} -- Bob Ajai Sehgal:> I have fixed a bug in the AP driver....
Here is an image take on 5-5-03. This is an LRGB all binned at 1x1. This image was unique in that an FLI focuser driven by FocusMax and commanded by ACP3 was...

Hi Juan, Thanks for your comments. You could operate it too if you chose to. Regards, Arnie 949-283-2801 Cell http://www.arnierosner.com ... From: jmo...
Hi Bob, I've been lurking here waiting for the other shoe to drop w/r Jon's note about ASCOM platform 2.2 not working with TheSky. I experienced the same...
There was a change in TheSky version .100: it no longer requires Orchestrate for scripted control. However, this results in internal changes that must be made...
Hi Ron and Ron, Thanks for bringing this back up. I'm glad I wasn't seeing things. ... Rats. So we still can't use TheSky as an ASCOM driver. But the good...
Ron -- Thanks for your inputs... it's good to see that you're monitoring things here... The TheSky driver in the ASCOM Platform release candidate 2.2 already...
... Yeah, but not for the reasons you think :-) TheSky does not conform to the ASCOM Telescope drive rinterface standard. ... Actually, you can also use TheSy...
I did not realize that 2.2 had the new code. Looks like you are on top of it then. If it's any comfort, I get a few folks with object creation problems with my...
Bob, The same thought occurred to me. Those having problems can check the symptoms and settings in their registry by following the advice found in the ...
It's not officially released, it's a release candidate. My plan is to release it early next week if I don't hear back on anything else. If you want to try it, ...
Bob, ... I disagree with the above statement. TheSky conforms to the ASCOM telescope standard through a driver distributed by ASCOM. Feel free to correct me...
Matt -- ... You are not wrong... I guess it's a mater of semantics. What I meant is that TheSky's own scripting interfaces were different. But it is certainly ...
... Good, so we're back to my original question: why doesn't this work? Some sort of object error... I've reinstalled everything. I've also examined dcom...
Bob, Thanks for keeping after it. Just on the chance the problem might have to do with the OS, I checked the driver out on a Win XP system. Same result -...
Ron -- I do have some diagnostics to run. Since you are on Win98, the DCOM issue is not the problem. Let's try this simple test: (1) Create a file c:\test.vbs...
I'm not on Win98; personally I'm on Win2k. The few users who have problems with creating objects are all using XP, I believe. On my machines, the script (and...
Ron -- Thanks for the data point... You're right - the DCOM permissions issue affects only NT-based systems (2K/XP/3K, etc.), which have (greatly) enhanced...
Bob, I did as you asked - Ran test.vbs containing the single line "s = CreateObject("TheSky.RASCOMTele")" - on both my Win 98 and Win XP systems. There is a...
Ron -- ... It's supposed to be Set s = CreateObject("TheSky.RASCOMTele") ^^^ The missing Set keyword is what triggered the "Object doesn't support the property...
Bob, Sorry! Dumb on me. I know better. Yes, I do have ASCOM platform 2.2f RC installed on both the Win XP and 98 systems. I edited test.vbs to read "Set s =...
... Right. The statement is Set s = CreateObject("TheSky.Telescope") ^^^^^^^^^^^^ Without that part, you are simply setting s equal to "TheSky.Telescope" an ...
