... I was thinking that the driver specific web page would be installed locally and not require connecting to the Internet - and yet more support work by Bob. ...
Hi Chris, Happy New Year! ... That will work too. The thing I liked about the remote version was that it could be updated anytime without loading a new ASCOM...
Chris, Looking at the Celestron source, it appears that PulseGuide() is disabled for all but the Nexstar scopes. Select Case m_ScopeType Case E_NEXSTAR_GPS ...
Hi Steve, These names identify the scope protocol. At the time this was written the NexStarGPS was the only scope using this protocol. After that the i series,...
Chris, So if I understand correctly, the current driver may already support PulseGuide() for the Advanced, CGE, and I mounts. In addition, you would like some...
Peter: Its included as a standard part of the Ascom 3.0f release. Download the release and POTH will be available as a Ascom chooser selection. Don Jarvis...
Don Thanks, I now have both MaxIm and The Sky running the scope at the same time via POTH. One question, I noted that there was post referring to an ASCOM ...

... The actual released 3.0 platform had all the beta fixes (for all the drivers) in place. To be sure, lets check your POTH version. Go to POTH setup...
Hi Jon I do have version 1.2.0. Thanks for your help. Peter ... From: BREWSTER,JON A (HP-Corvallis,ex1) [mailto:jon.brewster@...] Sent: 03 January 2004...
Bob or ?? Does anyone have a list of the ACL commands that PC/TCS understands? I vaguely remember this topic coming up before, but have been unable to find a ...
Thanks Bob Another question (just out of interest) I am currently using a SkySensor 2000 which is working fine with MaxIm and The Sky through POTH when the...
... Actually, POTH knows nothing whatsoever about telescopes It simply calls the ASCOM driver for the specific telescope you select in the ASCOM Telescope...
I'll post them (with Dave's permission) when I get them. Thanks. Charlie ... From: Bob Denny [mailto:rdenny@...] Sent: Sunday, January 04, 2004 3:04 PM To:...
Hi Bob I am sure that this problem is NOT just an ASCOM problem. Did you pick up on my comment that I have NEVER been able to connect to the SkySensor 2000...
... Sorry, I thought you were using the "connector" that lets TheSky talk to ASCOM drivers (and for that reason you asked the question on the ASCOM forum). If...
I CAN get MaxIm and The Sky to talk to the SS2K, both through dedicated drivers and through ASCOM, BUT, only if the SS2k is configured to communicate in LX200...
Oh, I didn't know that the SS2k had two modes. Sorry again. Well, at least you can run it in the LX200 mode... And you can thank Jon Brewster for POTH. It's...
Try to test your communications alone by connecting using a terminal program (like HyperTerminal or Terminal, shipped with Windows). You should be able to...
That isn't necessarily conclusive. A serial cable that has missing handshake lines will work perfectly well if the devices at both ends are configured to...
Hi Tim I agree if the system uses hardware handshaking, but the SS2K manual says that it uses Xon/Xoff. This is simply a code sent along the normal RX/TX wires...
Plenty of systems use Xon/Xoff but will not transmit if DSR and DTR are not asserted. Tecnically, this isn't hardware flow-control, since that is often done...
Your right about the gazillion ways for things to go wrong! I can remember having a little book about RS232, it was very thick! Yes, there is a wiring diagram...
Can anyone tell me what the current state of the ASCOM Camera specification is? I'm developing an imaging app that uses ASCOM to control everything. I've...
Pray to the goddess of computer evolution to quickly smite this old retro virus call 'RS-232" may it never again appear on the backplane of my computer again....
Except for astronomical equipment, where I can find absolutely no use for USB at all. I pray to the same goddess to never let another astronomical device be...
