PHD2 help required

[Nigel G]

Hi all.

I have an EQ3 pro with an Orion star shoot all in one camera.

I have downloaded the camera drivers and Ascom platform.

The camera connects fine but I'm not sure about connecting the mount and aux mount.

I connect the camera to the mount via ST4 cable.

1. do I need to download a driver for the mount.

2. which option do I select in the mount and aux mount dropdowns.

and anything else I need to know.

Any advise will be a great help.

Edit: using a PC and windows 7 with no internet connection for guiding.

Cheers

Nige.

In PHD2 select the appropriate camera from the menu and select "on camera" as the mount type and leave aux mount "none". Nothing else should be required.

ST4: don't forget to re-calibrate if you move a long way between targets. If you encounter problems, you may wish to have a look at this. HTH.

Thanks for the tips.

Guiding well at the moment.
