EQ6 Pro/SSAG Calibration settings: What are they?

[Dark Matter]

I have this mount and can not get the SSAG to calibrate to the RA. I keep getting a message saying: No movement in star to calibrate RA' or words to that affect.

Anyone got theirs to work and what settings did you use?

Thanks,

James

At this point, you would be wise to tell us what software you're using

I'm using a 60mm 800mm g/scope and the PHD software that came with the Orion SSAG camera.

If you use a cable I would check the actual circumstances. It goes like this:

Some manufacturers interpret SBIG's old ST4 specification differently. Some have the not connected pin to the left and some to the right. The SSAG has it to the left if I remember correctly, while SBIG has it to the right. Therefore, you must check to see if your cable is done the right way and maybe change to another one. Just hold the two RJ12 connectors side by side with the cables in the same direction. A straight cable has the same color order while a crossed has it reversed. If your mount has it to the left you need a crossed cable.
