This las summer (2019) I received my Mesu 200 mk2 and just I start imaging with it. Some fights with the Sytech Controller (like is normal with any new hardware) but all runs very well. 8) ![]() More info at http://astro.carballada.com/new-mesu-200-mk2-mount-at-the-observatory/ |

I have also just bought a Mesu e200 (MK2). I have followed Jose's progress and his information has certainly helped. It will be a while until I am set up, but my progress is being logged here: https://stargazerslounge.com/topic/342615-ive-finally-ordered-a-mesu-200-mk2-mesu-e200/ |

Jose, I finally have the Sitech driver working with ACP. There was a bug in the Sitech that prevented making images through the meridian. After that the meridian flip always went wrong. Since vesiton 0.95G of the Sitech driver everything is working great. ![]() |

Congratulations Emmanuel. Are you using a pier or a tripod? |

Emmanuel: If you order the pillar wedge or the pillar with no flip option, you cover this part ![]() Then I think the next step is to get contact with the software and the Sytech controller. Please join the group at https://groups.io/g/Sitechservo/ (a lot of fun there) On the same platform you will find the Mesu group.. with not to much activity https://groups.io/g/Mesu-Mount |

Emmanuel: sorry, I saw your post too late, is your mount running as expected? ![]() In my experience you need to change setting on the sitech depending of your capturing software but it's mor inportant to learn what is doing what |

Hello Together :-) my name is Marco and I am from Germany. Like better late than never I finally also bought a Mesu 200mk2 . After 11month of waiting due to motor delivery problems I picked it up at Lucas place last Saturday! So far everything works great and I am really happy … but how else should it be the more deeper I check all those Sitech Exe settings the more question marks appear in my head … It is hopefully ok if I ask some questions here :-) 1 - Which type of Mount you guys set under Config>Mount Parms ? Equatorial or GEM ? 2 - do you also can hear some sound / Mount noise differences while slewing ? 3 - anybody using a bent pillar ? How can I manage that I have no meridian Flip and the tracking do not stop at meridian? 4 - how to set up a home position after unparking ? Which is the right Sitech exe tool ? Until now no homing switches ! 5- Two behaviors changed during testing. After set a park position : first I unpark the scope / scope stays than I slew to an object via Nina automatically tracking startet after object coordinates were reached .. stop tracking , press park scope > Mount go to park position. every time same … I played it in a “loop” now : as soon as I Press the unpark button the Mount starts slewing to a wierd position ??? Stop and park is still working … also slewing to another object in between .. but if I start from park position and press unpark … 6- second : during the last testing days slewing to an object was every time acceleration - slewing at full slew speed - slowing down close to final position. Today - acceleration to about half slew speed - after about 30deg it goes to full slew speed - 30deg before reaching the final position it goes back to half slew speed . any ideas ? Do you had some similar behaviors or experiences ? fyi I am still testing insight and have no proper alignment ready .. i really looking forward to maybe get some thoughts and answers from your side ! Would really appreciate! Thank you very much ! Best regards Marco ![]() |
