Hi Paul, The acceleration loads can be reduced by setting the values for "Default Acceleration" in Servo Config on the Motors/Encoders tab of the Edit Parameters section. The single value for this

Hi Don, thanks for answer. It seems to be another Win10 mystery. I reactivated my old PC with Win7 and can update settings without any issues and save to eprom... It is not worth trying to understand

Hi Paul, I'd have thought it would be more of a mount question, so as it's a Mesu maybe see what Lucas suggests? Best wishes Martin Sent from my Galaxy

Just a quick update and request for info. Lucas Mesu has been extremely helpful with this problem. An initial skype with Lucas identified a broken motor drive shaft. I sent the motor back to Lucas and

Thanks for sharing this Sedat, very useful to know about the acceleration and accuracy. Shame about the complexity of shipping for repair. I just shipped my motor to Holland and Lucas has repaired and

Hello Paul, lowering the acceleration is helping a lot with avoiding the slip in the drive system which in turn allows for more accurate slews and quicker centering with much greater accuracy. My

Hi Ralf, Sorry, I don't have an answer. I have a Servo I controller that uses Com1, and it connects fine to either ServoConfig or Servo Communicator. It can't connect to both at once. In Win10

Hello, i need to change the settings my rotator servomotor. I can connect to the sitech servo I using Servo Communicator 2.3 and I can move focuser and rotator using COM5. I close the communicator

Thank you Don! That sounds like the answer. Rusty

Hello T. van Hees, Thank you for your input. I think the bottleneck is when the auto-guider camera and the main imaging camera attempt to download images at the same time it slows things down by about

Hi Rusty, Since your main concern is to separate the guiding functions from the mount control and imaging, putting the guider on a separate PC is only possible if that PC is not using ASCOM to connect

Hi Paul, The greatest load on the servo and drive components generally is the acceleration and deceleration loads. SiTech ServoConfig.exe allows you to set the rates. A slower acceleration setting

Hello Don! I like your Idea! If I understand everything correctly, I would connect my Meade DSI II Camera (That I use for auto-guiding) to the first computer running PHD auto-guiding software with a

Hi Sedat, in your original post you mentoned 'I am using the mount at slow speeds and with much less acceleration than originally configured by Lucas.' I was wondering why you do that? I have the same

Hi Rusty, You could run the guiding function on a separate PC to separate it from the Main camera and SiTech, which would allow platesolving. You can't do this using pulse guiding, but you can guide

Hello Don! Thank you for your advice and help. I tested both laptops under "Windows Task Manager - Performance", as was discussed in another post. It turns out the CPU does get used consistently at

Hi Rusty, I seriously doubt you can connect to a second computer. The connection is via ASCOM, internally on a single PC between SiTech and your camera control program. In order for SiTech to do any

Hi Don, Many thanks for your reply. I appreciate Dan must be busy& that he is the only person who can resolve this but I’m also consciousthat time is creeping by. Hopefully I will hear from

Hello All, SiTech.exe is running great on my 1st laptop. It connects to The Sky 6 Planetarium Software, running on the same laptop, beautifully... How do I connect over a TCP/IP network to a ZWO
