Phd2 connections to mount issues


Recommended Posts

Hi, I have read numerous posts, but not quite found the answer. 
 

i have an EQ5 pro mount which is fully connected and controllable on my pc using APT, Stellarium and Ascom. 

However, I cannot control my mount with PHD2, the mount connects under Skywatcher telescope ascom, but will not calibrate.

I have tried to manually control the mount by increasing the speed of movement, but nothing happens.

Can someone help please

thanks, Paul

Hi

Post a -link to- the PHD2 logs. They are available under the help menu.

Meanwhile make a new profile with both mount and camera already turned on/connected to the computer and the mount guide speed set at 0.9. PHD2 will then take the correct settings from the hardware.  Double check every setting. Make a dark library and try again.
