when you get round to it a flow chart of sorts and mayeb some reasing to why certain routes would be helpful overall, getting it all to talk reliably is an ongoing issue for me atm.

Steve I may of missed it but have you documented your ascom setup so to speak?

CDC is the best free option for scope control, I have not bothered with a purchase option as it does all i need, Stellurium is great for sitting at your computer and mooching.

Focuser installed and motor now on. just need to get he scope on the mounts and get calibrating eveything once again,
-
Steve what settin do you have the knob on the dome rotation box set to?

making sure these offsets are the same accross all the settings is key too, as with all astronomy stuff there are no standards and applications all do it differently. its a nasue.

Steve a word of warnign with the flap, make sure you balance your scope with it in open I did it with mine shut and it does change the balance point. Im also find the balance shifts as the ota points to other parts f the sky due to the weight of the unit on one side so it might be wortth considering counter balancing it. Id be very interested to hear if you have any issues and how you deal with them regarding this.

Focuser is in the UK according to USPS now let see Parcelfarce do their bit....

I have my sensor placed about 10 foot awy from my dome on one of the compost thingy posts, it is sheltered a bit from northen winds, but we very rarley get them here mostly southernly or easterly.
