Windows 7
SGP 2.3.13
Eqmod Ascom
This is my second time running into this issue. I was asleep when it happened, so the only information I have is the data in the log file. When I did look at SGP however, there was a dialog stating “Failed to meridian flip, telescope not near meridian…”.
I lost the chance to capture a few more frames… My last successfull meridian flip dates back to 2.3.11 or 2.3.12.
I will try a test target and see if I can gather more data on the meridian flip. I had recovery enabled, but it seems that the error dialog essentially blocked the rest of SGP from running.
