Subject: Question from Brazil Sent: Friday, December 14, 2007 06:43:05 From: Odair Martins Berto (oberto@toyota.com.br) I really hope you may help me. I living in Brazil, South America, and realy concerned because there is no Meade support here. I need you opnion concerning a problem I've having with my brand new DS 2130 LNT telescope: - During the initial set-up, the computer proceed the level aligment succesfully but can not conclude next step (NORTH ALIGMENT). The telescop remains turning around, over 4 minutes (or more, actually I had to turn it off) with or any answer from HandBox. Did I made some procedures mistake? Have you ever seem something like this? Thank you!!!Mike here: Try doing a CALIBRATE SENSOR for the LNT. Also, do a CALIBRATE MOTORS, then do a TRAIN DRIVES (on both axes). See if that solves the problem. You might also try reversing the cable to the AutoStar.
And:
thank you so much for your support. I procceded according your suggestion and.... IT IS WORKING - IT IS WORKING!!!!!!!!!!! I coud not imagine that it was so important to calibrate the mechanism. It was not necessary to reversing the cable to the autostar.
