Hi Michel,
Just read your message at the 10M forum.
How do I update to the latest version?
Pressing install 1.0.0 did not work.
Message: "Could not install update installation"
I now have 0.220.9b2

Hi Arie, If everything went fine the last session we had, you should be able to use the internal updater again. I think I did a repair in your setup. If that does not work, please let me know. Michel Von meinem iPad gesendet

Running "update.bat" did work.
Do I need to replace my current run.bat and update.bat?

[mworion]

Hi Arie, you we’re right using the update.bat. If you have a running environment, you could keep the scripts. In case of any problems I would recommend using the new ones as they write more log info in case of errors. Michel Von meinem iPad gesendet

Hello,
I use PegasusAstro on a PC with Windows 10, if I understand correctly, I can only configure Peasus using INDI, do you plan to add an ASCOM driver?
PS: Great software !!!!

Thank you

Jakub

[mworion]

Jakub, the Pegasus ASCOM support is on the list, might take some time. I have to readd the AutoDew support, Pegasus broke some firmware versions ago. Michel

great news :) thank you, I still have a question, when I release the virtual keyboard, it writes Conecting .... and it doesn't connect, what am I doing wrong? (Mount is connected correctly)

[mworion]

Did you set the mount IP ? Did you enable the webservice in the mount, you could try: http://ip of your mount. If that works, MW4 should also connect. Michel

Ok I'll try, thank you

[kzkcpj]

it already works, it must be turned on using the keypad web server (setting / Net Services / Web Interface: On)
thank you for the advice

Hi Michel
I started to use your MW app with my GM1000HPS, to begin I use the mount, the simulatorV2 for the camera, MGbox, the PC,
i have every thing green solver is ASTAP, I tried Astromety.net but I miss the lib. and I am not enough inside to understand the whole picture...Later...When I run a model the plate solving never complete but the process continue, is it normal with the simulator of the camera ? Is ASTAP ok as a solver ? Thanks a lot and thanks. George

[mworion]

Hi George,
I personally use ASTAP and I have no issues with it. On which system do you work? If you are using the simulator (on ASCOM) it does not generate star images, which could be solved. Instead there is a tool called ascom sky simulator. If you are on INDI, the CCD Simulator needs the coordinates the mount is pointing to. Otherwise you get stars in the image, but wrong location.
Michel

[georgesblum]

Dear Michael, Unfortunately with Ascom the soft (last version) is crashing when i try to built model…It stops after the first point and it is pending…and i always have issues with plate solving Astap. I probably do something wrong. To bad because it is exactly what i need. I do not understand what i am doing wrong… I downloaded H18 H17 V17 W08 and Hyperleda Index for windows and installed them to my computer. Best regards, georges

Hi Michel,

Having a permanent observatory setup I only remodel every 6 months or so. I am suddenly having trouble getting Plate Solving to work within MW4. I use Pinpoint and that solves okay within SGPro, so I know that the reference files are all there. However, when I try to set this up within MW4 the File Path and Index remain red.

I am also finding that MW4 will not update the Earth Rotation data - it says that no updater is available, which there is.

Perhaps I have forgotten something since I last did these tasks. Can you help?

Thank you

John

Hi John,I am sorry, but I cannot help you with Pinpoint. I am a ASTAP user.Currently I have my own issues connecting my camera to MW4. Hope you get it fixed quickly. ArieVerstuurd vanaf mijn iPadOp 31 jul 2024 om 17:17 heeft jgusb ***@***.***> het volgende geschreven: Hi Michel, Having a permanent observatory setup I only remodel every 6 months or so.

Hi John,
MW4 does not support Pinpoint (despite the fact that I was pinpoint user as well in the past). I would recommend ASTAP as Arie told.
