Hmm I wonder if that is a source of my recent troubles autoguiding on my AP1600 mount.

All of a sudden I could not calibrate the autoguider and autoguiding was a train wreck where it was very accurate before.

I had trouble again last night but only briefly where the autoguiding threw in a longer error correction which would have been blocked by the max guide setting.

I'll update to the SP1 and see what is going on there.

I switched from an SBIG STi autoguider which has been my reliable stable autoguider now for several years to an ASI290 mini. The mini is super clean and very sensitive so perhaps I should also run shorter subs than the 6 seconds I use on an AP1600 and PME mounts.

Thanks for the heads up.

Greg.
