I have upgraded to the latest version of kstars and I wanted to use the new AF algorithms.
Everything was looking good until the last moment where it wanted to focus inwards by 24964 steps... Maybe this is a bug ?

I replaced my iOptron SGP with a Skywatcher EQ5-R and now it works like a charm.

I am wondering the same thing.

Last night after a successful meridian flip, autoguiding was not resumed automatically. I think it should, right ?
On Kstars 3.6.0.

Logs attached here.

Any ideas ?

Thanks.

Any updates on this ? My platesolving also suddenly started failing.. At least on my primary scope.. on my guide scope it still works for some reason.
Strangely it just fails in the middle of my session. It _was_ working... totally clueless why it suddenly stopped working.

Hi,

Is there any idea when astroberry repo will contain kstars 3.6.0 ?
The repo from the upstream maintainers does not support astroberry :(

Thanks

After indilib.org/forum/general/12048-target-l...dian-flip.html#84853, I took the advice, and I _slewed_ to the target.

However, it seems the meridian flip fails on "Meridian flip failed, pier side not changed" for many times. Eventually it seems to work out: ""Meridian flip completed OK.", but capturing is not resumed for some reason...

Attaching the full log here. KStars 3.5.9

Not sure if I understand your explanation. If I only use the Capture module and set 'slew to target' in Alignment tab, will it be okay or not according to you ?

Yes, I am attaching the full log here.

Thanks.

IMHO the software should _always_ slew to the target after a MF.
