  1. And...........we have it working great! PA went great, then auto focus, then Home Position, then several targets around the 4 cardinal headings, then some live stacking of M81 and M99. Couldn't be happier. Your help is very much appreciated!
  2. OK I chose the EQmod setting. I didn't realize it was a separate setting. Tonight should be clear skies and I'll report back. But I think you guys nailed it! Thank you.
  3. Well, tonight was a fail. After getting set up and doing a PA, then plate solving, I decided to go to Regulus. It's position in the sky was over my left shoulder facing North. The Telescope slewed to position below Polaris. I'm including pictures of my set up. The red ones are from the Synscan Pro App in the EQ mode just to show the settings and software loads. The rest are from the ASIAIR Plus. The last picture shows the telescope position as slewed. The telescope should be looking in the direction of my left shoulder. The picture was taken facing North. I must be missing something basic. I'm hoping you guys can help figure it out. Thanks.
  4. Looks like semi clear skies tonight. We'll give it a try. I plan on taking pictures of my set up which might help in troubleshooting. Fingers crossed!
  5. Thanks guys. Next time the skies are clear I'll try it out.
  6. Great. That what I was hoping for. I'll try it again tonight. Thank you.
  7. Do I have to use the Synscan APP first to set the mount to EQ mode, then set home position and do a 2 star alignment before going to the ASIAIR Plus?
  8. I used Loader V1.79 and Dual V3.39 which was just released. Both the tablet and ASIAIR show the same time and location.
  9. I am new here. I have a AZ-GTI, SW SA wedge, SW 72ED with falttener, ZWO ASI485MC, ASIAIR Plus, Samsung Galaxy Tab S6, 12V 10A power supply. I'm having a problem that's driving me crazy. After PA I select a target and the telescope points in the wrong direction, usually down and 1 time the CW shaft ended up pointing to where the target is! I've viewed videos till I'm cross-eyed and checked out FB AZ-GTI page but there I got conflicting help. There are a lot of keyboard warriors out there. What I need is a step-by-step on getting the mount set up to work with the ASIAIR Plus by somebody who has this set up. Then a step-by-step on getting the mount to work with ASIAIR plus. Frankly, I used this set up minus the wedge and ASIAIR Plus but using a RPI 4B and Stellarmate with some success, but SM APP is awful and I spent way too many viewing sessions messing with faulty software over the last 6 months. So I decided to go the EQ route and read nothing but glowing reviews on the ASIAIR Plus. I see a lot of people using this combination so I know it works and works well. I just can't get to work for me. Hence my cry for some knowledgeable help. Thank you.
