AM Firmware v1.6.3 is available now.

I just tried the update from the ASIAIR app and that works without a problem. Mount updates swiftly to 1.6.3. The weird thing is though that the update through the mount its own webpage still failed. I tried that just before trying it before using the ASIAIR app and it still said that the servers were unavailable. Anyhow, the update went through successfully in the app itself

Sonixx Hello Sonixx, regarding the new update feature for AM mounts, does the hand controller still need to be connected to the AM mount for the ASIAIR update feature to work? can you advise the connections (ie serial, wifi, or BT) and process?

thanks

retman Hi ，the hand controller dose not need to be connected to the AM mount for the ASIAIR update. ASIAIR can connect to AM by BT or USB.open ASIAIR APP to find AM page to select USB or BT, when connected ,you can find 'Firmware Update' in 'About Mount' page.

ASIMount-ZWO Hello again, i tried and it would not work, advised "make sure the mount is in home position and the ASIAIR is not executing the plan". the mount was in home position and no plan was active...however i commanded the mount to go to home position (even though it was at home). nothing moved but the mount confirmed it was home...then i tried the update again and it worked perfectly.....another thing learned about the ASIAIR.....

I used to run AM5 with 1.3.0.. flawlessly running since long .... Now i have updates to 1.6.3 and i get every few seconds or minutes (random) Disconnect ... no matter if I use USB or via Wifi... It simply disconnects and I have to restart the Mount to get anything running!
And trying to revert throws: Invalid Firmware. My mount is practically USELESS now!

Hello ASIMount-ZWO Could you consider inserting a polar alignment and a multi start alignment routine in the Skyatlas app?
This is a must-have when performing visual observation.
Thank you for your attention and looking forward to having feedback on it.
best regards,
Paolo

Hello @ASIMount-ZWO ,
Please could you update firmware to accept custom park position trough LX200 remote command ?

Default Park position is not saving enough centimeters to close roof to have great alt level angle.

I know you have implemented customs LX200 commands in your firmware, it will be great if we could use commands like
":hP0#" or ":hP1#" or others to set custom park position and call it.
It will be a great option for people using AM mount in observatory.

Thank you.
