Fire Capture Telescope Connection Problem

general_t

Hi,

I had this working fine the other day ( Fire Capture controlling the mount) but now cannot connect.

I select Celestron Mount in the ASCOM dialog but when I go to properties to select a COM PORT there are none listed, so it fails to initialize. How do I get COM PORTS bathe ASCOM dialogue boxes?

do you mean want to use the "auto guide" function under FC?

Hi Sam,

No, not the auto guider feature. I mean connecting my telescope Celestron C11 Edge HD) to Fire Capture so it can move my scope. Using the ASCOM driver, and selecting the Celestron Telescope in the drop down menu and then going into "Properties" I get no COM ports to choose from? I did get to choose a COM port last week and all worked well, but not anymore.

When I use the ASCOM driver to control my Moonlite Focuser I can choose Com port 1, COM port 3 or COM port 5. I get no choices for a COM port under Fire Capture for telescope control?

Thanks

maybe you can ask at FC's Yahoo group
