I am looking for a way to ensure my scope has moved to the home position before the roof closes. I am a little worried to have IR bouncing around in the dark...
Chris--I removed ALL the IR sensors (the M1 provided sensor as well as my comerical opener sensors) as I have an open Truss RC and had issues with the IR...
David, Thank you for providing your experience on the matter. I have emailed Chris and I'm waiting to hear back from him. This all began when a friend pointed...
Hi Guys...sorry it took a while for me to reply...I've been traveling a bit these days. Chris, that sensor will work. It is very similar to the sensors...
Chris H--Is the sensor in the link you provided any different than the red beam/reflector combo we are using? Regardless, is there any variation of either...
Hi Dave...This is the same sensor. A real simple solution here is to route the sensors through one of the open relay's and control the power to the sensor via...
Folks, I wired all my sensors (I have 3, 2 reflective and 1 IR), through Relay 16. What I did was to take the +12V off the VAUX for each sensor and put them...
Hi, I am having trouble getting two PC's in the observatory with each PC controlling one mount with CCDAP4, to have two copies of the MIOASYS driver running...
Hi Tim, Yes, multi instances and connections are allowed. Are you sure that you have network connectivity and proper permissions? Can both computers connect...
Hi Chuck, Thanks. Yes, both PC's connect OK alone..... If one instance of M1OASYS driver is already connected the one on the second PC fails to connect... But...
Tim, Try a different order for the connecting the computers. When the second one doesn't connect have you retried linking several times? Can you connect both...
Hi Tim, Hope all is well. We have not designed the m1OASYS driver to work with two mounts, yet...As Chuck suggests it may be an issue with the M1XEP module...
Chris I know that you started testing this before. Have you completed testing your script to shut off the park position sensor beam after opening the roof? I...
Hi Chris. I have not yet written a rule to turn the sensors back on upon a close task. I did write this rule to turn them off: Whenever Obs Roof Opened (Zn...
For some that might have ISP's that block port 80 here is a suggestion from the ELK forums...I have not tested this but sounds like it would work... "To access...
Chris, It occurs to me, when you start the close roof task isn't there going to be a message that the sensor is not connected or not completing the "light...
Chris, Works on my home network quite easily using Elk RM settings! Thanks for pointing it out! Only glitch that I can find is that it seems to have trouble...
Hi Chuck and Chris, Sorry for the slow reply....my family had plans for me the last few days...!! I have discovered that it is a matter of connecting the two...
Excellent! I see that he plans on updating the app and fixing some of these....Chris, can you send me a few screen prints? Thx! -Chris ... for ... have ... ...
Chris, Yes, for me the biggest fixes will be the ability to report the temperature sensor which now does not work with the thermostat option (I guess this only...
Chris, Where did you get the reflectors you are using for scope positioning? Which model are you using and about how much are they? Thanks, Norm Norman E....
My ELK M1G system seems to be periodically experiencing AC power failures twice in the past day or so. It seems I can clear the problem up if I just unplug the...
Has anyone considered or tried a magentic proximity swithc like the following: ITT Industries # MPS20WGW http://www.alliedelec.com/Search/ProductDetail.aspx? ...
Hi David, I use this type of switch to detect my park position( on each axis wired in series AP1200 mount). The activation distance is ~1", so it works very...
I have never seen any issues in my images but to be on the safe side I routed all my sensor power through a relay and turn them off whenever the roof is open,...
The sensor's narrow beam shouldn't be an issue unless it is directed in to the OTA. I posted a shot of the the light in the pictures section. The camera I...
