  1. Yesterday I had the opportunity to try out the improved MC007 motor controller board. And it works perfectly!
  2. Hello! Well, we programmed the PIC. Just one. Then we soldered it in place. After powering up, I upgraded the firmware to what went into the PIC to be the same in both. Since the weather has been bad since then I couldn't try it properly, but it rotates both axes as it should. It also does the 3-star calibration and finds the target when I type it. (presumably because I tried in a room). If Mgen does its job well, this project is a success ....... But that would require a cloud-free evening ..
  3. Yeah I know. The RA axis controller is bad. I accidentally plugged the guider port into the hand control. Its supply voltage went to the guider port. That is the U4 PIC pin 27-28 (PGD, PGC). (Hand control Vpp +, and GND). The error occurs when the Mgen calibration moves the RA axis. The sidereal rate stops. When calibrate the DEC axis, it goes down fine.
  4. Only one of the two PICs is bad. Do both still need to be replaced?
  5. Huge thanks for it! The panel has a 16Mhz oscillator. It can work on that. I ordered the PIC. If it comes I will try. Thanks again!
  6. Well, there's more trouble ... Maybe if I asked, wouldn't you translate it for me? AZ-EQ6 Motor Controller V0211.bin
  7. Hello! My EQ6-R mount motherboard has recently failed. It is possible that the PIC18F25K20 -I / SS controller on the RA axis has failed. I read that if I download the .MCF file and rename it to a .bin file, and if I generate an .hex from it, I can upload it to the PIC, with Pickit4. Can this work? Thank you for your answers. Regards helium.
