Havent been able to get any guiding going with ST4.



If I set the asiAir to st4 via camera the mount stops tracking.

I tried the computer connected to the camera which is connected to the mount via st4. and phd2 set to st4 via camera. but no signals got through the mount had a hand controller plugged in. unplugging the hand controller seemed to stop tracking.

So am not sure how anyone is meant to use st4 via the camera with a heq5 pro.

Attached is an image zoomed in of using computer to monitor mount with PHD2 which asiair takes pics

and a zoomed out full hour.

Am not sure if thats good or bad for that polar alignment.

The pics at 60 second exposure werent great especially being at 900mm FL. But thats what you would expect with the ra/dec having what visually looks like about 4 or 5 arc seconds of movement in each 1 min exposure.

Theres certainly no spikes.
