Taped some color foil to dim the bright display Stabilized and tunable 12/30A power supply unit velcroed to the pier with 3 x 12 V manifold velcroed to the psu. Self made stainless steel adapter that can be levelled with the double M16 screw nuts at the top and the bottom plate: Most of the things that are velcroed, plugged and bolted there there can be seen here: Normal sand or perhaps defined mesh sand would also do the job I think. To deaden vibrations I have filled the pier with "artificial sand" (0.5 mm silibeads). So here some photos.The whole thing rests on a self-made stainless steel pier. If anybody is interested in details or has questions please ask.
I will make a short live film of the workflow if the sky stops draining some day… The whole procedure takes just a few minutes. MobiPro transfers all jpgs after each shot that can easily be inspected in on the notebook or PC inside.Begin image sequence, camera triggered by Mgen (with dithering).Setup and start standalone autoguiding.
Choose image parameters on cam and MGEN.Take of mask, slew back to target by clicking it in Stellarium.Place Bahtinov mask, shoot, control focus on notebook monitor, adjust if necessary.Select bright star somewhere in the target region with Stellarium, scope slews to star.Astrotortilla automatically syncs mount, slews to exact target coordinates and places another control/sync point in EQmod.Automatic plate solve image in Astrotortilla identifies image center coordinates.Mobi Pro automatically sends jpg to notebook (can be inside the house).Selec target in Stellarium – scope slews (near) to it.MobiPro in slot 2, K3 ii set for Raw+ mode, jpgs in “S**” quality in slot 2.MobiPro set in infrastructure mode (uses my Wlan).EQWifi plugged in instead of handbox, connects to EQmod.Astrotortilla (plate solving and scope sync/framing, free).Stellarscope (to sync EQmod and Stellarium, free).EQmod/EQASCOM (telescope driver and control, free).Stellarium (“virtual reality” of night sky and my scopes place, free).EQWifi EQ5/6 Wifi adapter (wireless interface replaces the handbox).I have just successfully tested a wireless setup that hopefully helps to use my small imaging time more effective.
Looking for more conveniance and less struggle with exact framing etc. We Pentaxians have no Backyardsomething and no image transfer to the astro-softwarepackages that are on the market.
