Altair269C Tec-Pro

[TheChief]

I have a 269C and I have no idea if it is defective or just does not want to work with APT. I live just outside of Winschoten; however, I have no problem driving to where ever I need to go. What I would like is for someone who uses the Altair269C to take my camera and see if it will work for them. Ideally, who ever is willing to do this works with APT and has success with their 269C on APT. I know privacy is very important so what I am thinking is that if someone is willing to do this, then we identify a neutral location, like a hotel, for us to meet and me to hand over my camera.

Your thoughts are greatly appreciated.

Ik heb een Altair 269C en ik weet niet zeker of hij defect is of gewoon niet met APT wil werken. Ik woon net buiten Winschoten, maar ik kan zonder problemen naar elke gewenste locatie rijden. Ik zou graag willen dat iemand die een Altair 269C gebruikt, mijn camera even overneemt om te kijken of hij/zij hem wel kan gebruiken. Idealiter heeft diegene ervaring met APT en is hij/zij succesvol met de 269C op APT. Ik weet dat privacy erg belangrijk is, dus ik denk eraan dat als iemand bereid is dit te doen, we een neutrale locatie afspreken, bijvoorbeeld een hotel, waar ik mijn camera kan overhandigen.

Ik waardeer uw reactie zeer.

I had hoped that someone would have taken me up on the problems I was having with my 269C. No one had and fortunately, I stumbled across what appears to be the solution to the problems I have had with this camera for the last year or so.

I use the 269C, no experience with APT however, as I use all my gear from NINA.

Ik wil probeer dit in Nederlands.

Ik ben niet de slimste mens. Mijn probleem met mijn altair 269c pro-tec native driver versus ascom driver was. Er was niet probleem met mijn camera gwoon met de mens

Ik heb nu de ascom driver gebruik en alle is goed.

Thank you for the update and glad you have solved the issue. Drivers can be a real nightmare and they can work a bit differently in each application as well.
Anyway, looks like you're nicely in time ready for the winter season. Hope you will have some clear nights soon and be able to make some nice pictures.

Best regards,
