I tried reinstalling the ascoms, and removing and reinstalling unity, but it still doesn't work, I also recently bought the nyx 101, it should arrive in days, let's hope so, I was looking for help but I understand that I can't figure it out Did you install the latest Unity version. There are some p...

Hi all, I am babysitting a friends rig at the moment for some testing, I have been running in to an odd issue, he has a UPBV2 with a QSI6162 getting it's USB connection and power from the UPBV2, and it is also running a heater belt on a PWM output and a FeatherTouch focus motor controlled directly ...

I have a ZWO EAF (first version) on one of my telescopes. When I connect it through the USB2 port, I get a message that this device is compatible with the UPB2 (whatever that means) but I have had no success getting the UPB2 focus control to actually drive the focuser. Oh, the UPB2 focus display sh...

Pegasus replaced the unit, and the new one arrived about 2 hours ago. I'm now in my SkyShed POD, overlooking the St. Lawrence river, trying to test everything now that I have also downloaded the latest software. Unity seems to be working! Hello Roger, So it seems that the DMFC was a faulty unit. I'...

The unit was sent to Greece and is on its way to Canada. Pegasus have been very responsive, and I'm really looking forward to getting the unit back and in service. The next step will be modifying my Meade Zero Image Shift focuser to take a stepper motor. Does anyone know how to identify the wires i...

Thanks Roger for letting us know.

Happy New Year 2023!!!

It seems related to TeamViewer. Did you try Windows Remote Desktop?

I see that it is an XT60 connector (Female) according to their website. ...if anyone reading this needs help on this issue. I found these on Amazon with 12 AWG wires, so I purchased a few. About 12 U.S.D. for 4 sets. Just checked their web site... the Cigarette Lighter Adapter to XT60 cable (SKU: C...

Sometime that's the contrary. Some devices seem working well only with old software

I asked them the same, as you, several days ago.

No change, except that the device is now on COM4. I used the Unity platform to move the focuser to position 1000. I can request a move using APT, NINA and the ASCOM Device hub, and while they all start out showing that the focuser is at position 1000, when they each try to move it to position 2000,...

Secondly, there is a PDF available from Pegasus about using the Meade Zero Image Shift focuser at https://pegasusastro.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/meade-zero-image-shift-focuser-motor-wiring-rj45-to-3.5mm-stereo-jack.pdf. This device uses a DC motor rather than a stepper motor, so for me it was ...

Hello, Roger,

A new Unity platform (version 1.6.1230.46) has just been released this afternoon. However, not sure it will help you. Fingers crossed!!!

Yves

To which port your Quieter3 is normally connected?

Are you using Windows or Linux ?

...and the Unity software moved the Meade Zero Image Shift Focuser. Hello, Roger, In reading https://pegasusastro.com/products/dual-motor-focus-controller/ , I can't find your Meade Zero Shift Focuser as a supported Pegasus Astro focuser device. Is your focuser really supported? Thanks! Regards, Yves

Hello, Roger, I think you did the right thing to try solving your problem. As a beta-tester myself for other applications, it's not always easy testing different scenarios. Sometimes you need different devices (another computer, using another application like N.I.N.A. instead of APT, etc.). Even the...

He started the laptop and ensured that Unity was running in the background before turning the power on to the Pegasus equipment he has. Hello, Roger, On my side, the first application I'm opening is the Unity Platform and minimise it until the end of the night. This way, the Unity server is still a...

When I select Connect Focuser in APT, for instance, the ASCOM Focuser Chooser panel shows up, and liste in there are (among others), Pegasus Astro Focus Controller, Pegasus Astro Focus Controller 2, PegasusAstro DMFC, PegasusAstro FocusCube, and 5 others. The ones installed by Unity do not have a s...

Hi Roger, Are you sure you are using the PegasusAstro DMFC ASCOM driver? According to what you wrote, your system should have two ASCOM driver related to DMFC. One related to Unity Platform and one related to the older ASCOM driver. Another thing, be sure to disconnect the older ASCOM driver first b...

I recently aquired the Pegasus Astro Ultimate Powerbox v2. The zwo 2600 camera will not consistently power up. I have tried all the power ports including the always on port. Interesting when I disconnect the MeLE Fanless Mini PC Quieter3 computer, the camera will sometimes power up. I am using a 30...
