Troubleshooting
- When Opening OSbus, if the COM4 is not recognized, just reboot the computer.
- When opening the shutters, if you get the message ’shutters are MOVING’ for too long, it means they are stuck. You can go in the dome and check visually which shutters are opened/closed.
You can then go in the advanced settings of OSbus and open the ones that are stuck. You can follow the same procedure when you have to close them. - When connecting all devices in N.I.N.A., if some devices do not connect because of the ’safety monitor’, go in the ‘Equipment’ -> ’Safety monitor’ tab, and disconnect it, so that you can connect all the other devices.
- If the plate solve (when you slew and center a target) fails, probably you are out of focus, you should do an autofocus with the L filter.
- If the autofocus fails, you are probably too far from the true value. Move the focus to 5300 and then retry the autofocus.
-
When you click find home in the dome tab, if the dome doesn't move, it's probably due to the safety monitor settings. Go in he ‘Equipment’ -> ’Safety monitor’ tab, and disconnect it. Continue all procedures normally without reconnecting the safety monitor.
