Question about Pulse Guiding #8

Closed Rick01 closed 11 years ago

Rick01 commented 11 years ago

Hi Tom, Yep...It's me again. I have a question about Pulse Guiding with the AstroEQ. Is it possible to use the EQMod Pulse guiding with the AstroEQ? I'm not real clear on how all this "new fangled" stuff works together. I have an Orion Starshoot Autoguider, it plugs directly into a USB Port. Do the correction signals flow from the Camera through the USB Port to PHD and then to the EQMod where the Pulse Guiding signal is processed and then sent to AstroEQ and ultimately to the motors? I have added an ST-4 Port to the AstroEQ Box and can run it directly from the Camera but the Pulse Guiding seems the better way.

Many thanks, Rick

I'm not really sure how pulse guiding works to be honest. For that you are better asking on the EQMOD group. Anything related to EQMOD that works with a standard Skywatcher controller should work with AstroEQ in the same way.
