Hello Suriano, You've a common and easily fixed problem. Plug in one DSI, open Envisage, Click on the "Color" button ( upper left by the offset and Gain). On...
Hello Floyd, Nice image. With the length of the subs you took you can likely bring out more nebulusity. It may just be personal taste, but I like to leave a...
Hi, Floyd - I am thinking of making a hoop, cross hair mask. Recently there have been a couple of threads about this. You seem to indicate that a rather ...
Thanks Kurt! When I talked to Meade, they said you couldn't run two DSI's off of one computer. When I told them you could they said to send them an e-mail...
Hi Frank, What I have observed is this. The thicker wire is easier to see the spike and to get to a fine focus. My thinner thread mask also agrees with the...
Hello Floyd, What I've found to work the best is 1" or 2" square rubberized square fencing. I just cut it one square bigger then the scope on each side, then...
I tried 3/4" on my 90mm yesterday and it wasn't a hit. I could clearly see distortions in the picture but it was hard to determine if it was in focus or not....
Hi, Yes, larger aperture can use a wider cross. I think that the heavy sewing thread is very good, and the coat hanger wire is also tops for a 80-127mm scope. ...
Hello Floyd, The strips aren't 1", Its square wire fencing, the openings are 1". I use it on every thing from my Borg 77MM, to Custer's 16". Another thing I've...
Hi all, I am new to the group and this if my first post, I just purchased the DSI for my LX200. I'm not really sure how to get it to work properly and am...
http://tinyurl.com/23p5hq This is my first attempt at wide-field imaging using my 7" Mak piggy-backed with a Minolta Maxxum set to 8omm. 128 frames at 30...
I am looking for a ration for the color exposures for each color with the DSI Pro II. I have one coming and I have the Atik Filter Wheel as well as the Meade...
You may not be getting focused. Some times the scope will not give enough out focus to achieve focus. I require a minimum of 2" of extension tube to get focus...
Thanks for the reply, I understand what you are saying, but just so that I understand the DSI, if it is in a dark area it should give a black image out of...
Hi, just the slightest amount of light and the screen should go white. If it does not change when exposed, then it is not working. Does Envisage show the...
Hi, I found the problem...Meade gave me a bunk USB cable. This has never happened to me in my life! Now I need to focus it, do you know if I would need an...
Hi everyone, My name is Ray and I just purchased a DSI Color from OPT following the price reduction. I have a Meade LX90 permanently mounted in a Backyard ...
Hello Jesse, Length will depend on how close your planning on putting the laptop. I use a 5m one from Radio Shack attached to a hub then short ones to the...
Hello Ray, The 6.3 FR is mostly for visual or full frame chips. The little 3/5fr is quicker but will only cover a smaller chips. The laptop should be fine in a...
My laptop won't put out enough power to run a DSI Pro (guiding) and DSI Pro 2 (imaging). I bought a "powered" USB PCMCIA card but then found that it plugs into...
Fred, get a universal 12V power supply that cranks out 5V with a variety of plug sizes. Be sure to choose one that is powerful enough for your application, say...
