... No. That's how it tightens. As someone else mentioned earlier, sometimes it's slightly too long so it can't clamp tight on the baffle when you tighten...
Well, without any assistance, I dis-assembled again and have found that the plastic ring is now too thin. The large cog squashes the ring down to the shaft,...
Thanks John, The slot I was discussing is in the shaft where the ring fits in to hold it in place. This ring is the same system as the plastic garden hose...
Note really the end of the story; the REASON that the fiber interface has become thinned and deformed as clearly evident in the photo, is from over-tightening...
... I was about to ask what photo, since I hadn't seen Vincent post a link or an image in the group photos in this thread. But then I noticed his last message...
Go to Meade.com, download the manual for the scope and READ it. Getting the mount level is a good thing but not mandatory as if you do the alignment procedure...
... Again, this adapter is not just a simple connector where pins in a plug on one end have to be connected to the correct pins on the other end. There's much...
I always suggest tightening until you feel the pressure and then turn 1/2 to one turn more. That is ample. As for the photo, I was quite surprised it made it...
No....it was a photo; I do know what a photo vs. text looks like. I responded to what I had seen in the photo. Dr. Clay _____ Arkansas Sky Observatories MPC...
... It was a photo only after being decoded on your computer system by your mail reader. The uuencoded ASCII text representation of the photo was transported...
Nonetheless, it was a photo. Dr. Clay _____ Arkansas Sky Observatories MPC H45 - Petit Jean Mountain South MPC H41 - Petit Jean Mountain MPC H43 - Conway West ...
... Good. Now we know how to include photos in Yahoo groups that don't otherwise permit them. The reason you saw the photo was because you use Outlook Express,...
Normally I enjoy the solitude of living in the past, but perhaps this is not one of those times. Dr. Clay _____ Arkansas Sky Observatories MPC H45 - Petit Jean...
There are some standards, mainly defacto rather than formal, and most follow it. (it's the most but not all bit that causes the problem) The USB interface is a...
If i ever want to picture a dog's breakfast, i merely need to consider the content of an ethernet IP stack (or Windows LAN network presence) added to the zoo...
I never mentioned IP :-) Ethernet is a perfectly able comms system that does not need IP at all. This is a point that seems to have been missed by just about...
Andy; I think that you need to go back to school. The program that handles setting up an ethernet assignes one of the PRIVATE network IP addresses to the...
But the PC would most certainly be connected to a network which means the scope would have to be connected as well. And that means full Ethernet networking...
No you are 100% wrong. Do not make the mistake of thinking that Ethernet and TCP/IP are part of the same thing they are two separate systems. (The 127.n.n.n...
Ethernet has MAC addrsses inbuilt, that's what makes it work. You DO NOT need broadcast domains, bridge tables and such like if you consider it as a LOCAL...
While i agree that ethernet (private protocol or IP-compliant) would be far better than USB, i also agree that it's not going to happen on too many devices. ...
I received a photo attachment as well. Surprised the you-know-what out of me. Allen Nonetheless, it was a photo. Dr. Clay _____ Arkansas Sky Observatories MPC...
I'm using MS Outlook (not express), through MS Word. The photo was the first attachment I have ever received from this group. Allen ... From: "Thad Floryan"...
You are partially right when looking at Ethernet from a purely and incomplete theoretical perspective but both your understanding of Ethernet as well as your...
Give me an old 232 port for console / configs any day... With care 100feet ??? Better not let the old lab network hear you say that. :-) Run things fairly slow...

New photos/text: <http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/Meade-Uncensored/files/LX200-OTA-disassembly/> I want the main mirror to remain movable with this scope....
That is most likely the reason, but I don't recall overtightening for no reason. If the mirror still flopped, I tightened further. Vincent ... From: "P. Clay...
