  1. Hello all,

    I have just received my new ZWO ASI1600MM Pro camera and it works very well :)

    However, I was wondering about the ascom driver. I have seen many people set their settings as gain 139 and offset 21, but with the newer drivers, the offset is in the 'advanced' tab. Should I just click Unity Gain and leave it at that, or should I go into the advanced tab and manually select Offset 21? From what I can tell, it does make a slight difference (files attached).

    2019-04-07_10-32-21 = Offset not manually selected

    2010-04007_12-01-48 = offset manually selected

    I do apologise if I am misunderstanding this, as this is my first time working with a dedicated astro camera :)

    Did they supply the CG5 to you in the first place ?

    I'll give them another enquiry, hopefully they may supply parts on their own as well as carrying out repairs.

    The 64 thousand dollar question - How much did the charge, if I may be so bold ?  ?

    I bought the cg5 on ebay about a year prior to the repair. they fixed it for a nice 40 quid I believe.
