First Light for ST2000

Posted By robert bohley

My SBIG ST2000 arrived two weeks before the Texas Star Party. Clouds at home site kept me from trying it out before the trip. But at the star party, I was able to capture some good images including this one of Omega Centauri. Telescope/mount setup is a TV102 on a Losmandy G11. Everything seems to work well except CCDOps does not drive my mount in the -y direction. (+/-x and +y work fine, and the hand controller drives in each direction. I think I must have a wiring/cabling mismatch. Any thoughts?

Wow - I hope to follow your example. Just received my 2000XM yesterday and have loaded the software and read the manual. I'm anxious, but nervous, about my first session under the stars.
Clear skies,
