Re: Primaluce Lab Essato 4” Focuser

All, Just an update…. I got the ESATTO 4” focuser today and was able to test it with AA9. Im happy to report it seamlessly connected and worked properly. I did indoor testing only but hoping to get out under the stars soon, but have many “things to do” in front of this. The instructions I downloaded...

Primaluce Lab Essato 4” Focuser

Hello All. Thinking of getting the Primaluce Lab Essato 4” Focuser for my FSQ106EDX4. Their website note ASCOM capable, but want to know if anyone is using this Focuser, or any other Essato, its comparability, and how it works in AA9. My Robo-Focuser has done an excellent job over the years but now ...

Re: AA9 feature request: auto target name from goto name

D,

That’s a great idea. I often forget to add the name to the sequence window and end up with a bunch of “M31…” images! :lol:

Re: Full Frame Guide Window Size Request

AA9 with the side window worked well! The ability to resize the guide stat window makes it easy to see what’s happening. Thanks again Fabio.

Full Frame Guide Window Size Request

Hello Fabio. I have a request for a future feature update. For full frame autoguiding the window shows both the guide image and the statistics tab (which I really like), but is still too large as it takes up a lot of space even when reduced to it's smallest size. Can the change be implemented where ...

Re: Full Frame Focus Exposure Time By Filter

Fabio, At my dark site imaging! I still can’t get the auto-guider to calibrate and the mount doesn’t move when AA8 is trying to calibrate. I’m running the output of the QHY guider to the autoguider port of the Gemini 1. I want to note that I don’t have the Camera 2 options in the pull-down menu. Cou...
