sorry if you came here to see me in a girl guides uniform... it aint happening
I have been mucking about with my new heq5, which has a guide port!
Now the amount i know about guiding i can fit on a pin head, but i gave it a shot anyhow.
after polar aligning I pluged one of the cables that came with my lpi into the mounts guide port and with serial port adapter in place pluged the other end into my laptop.
I opened up the LPI program, set the telescope tracking a nice bright star, set the program to guide and..........
the LPI program start sending my telescope in the wrong direction and my star whizzes off the right of teh screen!!!
hmm... must be the program.
i next installed guidedog and did teh same. and i got the same result (ie guide star pushes the star off the right of the screen from something close enough to a standstill!
now i dont think my mount requires auscom software but i put that in next... nothing. i can now delete that.
any hints people?
