Patrick, I finally had a chance to look at this again. It's odd. When I run the tcpclient2 script and start with 1 chart I end up with 10 charts and then CdC...
I am running v2.76 CDC and V3 beta. I choose meade as my scope interface. I connect to the autostar, set the time. Everything checks, autostar beeps. I can do...
Hi, I not build 64bit version because I have no 64bit system and not enough time to play with a cross-compiler. But it is easy to build a 64bit version from...
I suggest pursuing the ASCOM workaround. Please describe in detail what you mean by the Meade patches not working with ASCOM at the ASCOM-Talk group. Dick...
I have used both the ASCOM and the Meade Drivers in 2.76 and the ASCOM driver in V3. Bother versions preformed well even using Bluetooth. ... back ... "Sync"...
Click on exe file and it gives an error message about a problem with the file. I will try downloading again. What is interesting, I finally did get it to...
I do mean sync. I am on a polar GEM, I have an object centered and I want the autostar to think that is where it is. That was my understanding of the sync ...
Ok, Syncing from the hand pad for initial alignment is an excellent way to bring polar AS scopes to alignment. I do this all the time. I thought you might...
Direct serial port. I position scope say on regulus. Select Regulus in CDC and right click and tell it to sync to object. Then I say click on Saturn and...
Try syncing or alignment via the hand pad. Don't Sync from CdC and see if that makes a difference. I have had mixed results syncing from an application to the...
What Patrick says is true. The AS must think it is aligned and tracking before the serial port becomes fully active. You can get around doing a full alignment...
The AS has to try to match the other Meade mounts and do it all in 1 meg of memory. That includes all the internal catalogs. So you have to give it some...

I added a 'use strict' and modified the file to make it compile again. I was tracking down why this script does not work for me. I installed the 2/10 version...

Hi! Today, I have compiled cat. III/76A Luminous Stars in the Northern Milky Way (LS) (Hardorp+ 1959-1965). Description: The catalog contains a series of works...
Would anybody consider (who has more programming knowlege than me- which wouldn't be difficult!- be interested in developing a version for PDA, like the poll I...
At current laptop prices (around $500 or even less) I don't think it's worth it. The tiny screen on a PDA and lack of memory is an issue as well. I would...
Hello there! I think there are many people especially here in germany, which want to shoot photos on a telescope and just need a good software for positioning....
I have successfully downloaded the latest asteroids and comets into V2.76 and they appear in the lists in Preferences | Catalog and object parameters, but when...
You have to select which asteroids/comets you want to be "active" in the program (if you downloaded the entire astorb database and selected them all, your...
Still having trouble with asteroids however with the Linux version. Probably it is just me. In general the Linux version works very well. Jule J. DuBois at 42N...
Hey Geoff! I think your solution is practicable for you or maybe other guys with a dobson. But what about owners of smaller telescopes or on a german mount? My...
