Autoslew connection problem

Hi,

 

I am new to this forum and new to DDM mounts as well. :)
I have a trouble with connecting Autoslew to the mount.
I installed the programs according to the manual. Now Autoslew starts with error message. I can skip this message, but then I can not turn motors on and can not do anything with the mount. It seems Autoslew can not connect to the mount.
Could you please tell me what is the problem and how can I solve it? OS is Win7-64bit.

George, you are probably right. I had the same message the first time I started Autoslew.

It appears that Autoslew uses the locale decimal separator to read its config files, but these files use '.', whatever the locale is.

 

Ivan, you then need to change the decimal separator to '.' in the locale parameters on the computer you use to run Autoslew.
