Hi John, From which software did you initiate the slew (MaxIm or TheSky)? I did initiate the slew several times from TheSky 6 and got no such problems. Also,...
Hello group I have downloaded the new AP driver, everything seemed to load OK. I can load it into the Sky6 and Maxim. Problem is it crashes the new driver and...

Hi Joe, Funny you should suggest the pulse option for the LED. In a staff meeting this AM prior to reading your e-mail, we discussed adding that to our keypad...

Good morning! Is there any way to 'guess-timate', like within a 2 years accuracy window, about how long is the wait for a Mach1Gto? I had to ask :>) Thanks ...
Hi Peter, I thought about doing the same thing. Actually, it would have been nice if the Recticle power port from the CPx controller could have a "pulse" ...
I have attached magnetic prox switches like those used for home security. They are available in a normally closed contact configuration and with one double...
Sorry to return to an old subject. The connector on my pasill2 is intemittant but the LED is OK. Is this the version that should unscrew - mine seems pretty...
I'm sorry but I cannot answer that. Everything I said before was from memory and I do not recall anything more specific. If you tried to clean the reticle you...
Is there a black ink marking on it. My problem with the reticle is that only part of the reticle markings are illuminated. I tried to clean it with optical...
Thanks Rick, I was wondering, is the reticle on the surface or inside the glass. It seems that water might have seeped into the reticle. Thanks, Chris ... ...
I would only go to all that trouble if you cannot just wait until it dries out by itself. The reticle is exposed a little on both sides if the illuminating led...
Continuing a bit further - put the level sensor (mercury switch), tilted at the angle offset you require (e.g. 10 degrees), so that when the mount is safely...

Unthread the eyepiece from the tube. This will expose one side of the reticle. Take apart the AP adapter by unthreading the two pieces. One end will slide off...
Hi, I have a stupid problem. I left my PASILL out in the rain. When I dried it (with a hair drier), it seems that the reticle wouldn't fully illuminate...
I've had an AP900 for a couple of years. Now it's time to upgrade the scope, and I'm thinking about Hyperion's new astrograph. It weighs 60 pounds, plus I'll...
